Marantz 2215B Receiver

 

Marantz 2215B Receiver (1973-1977, MSRP 250 USD)

The Marantz 2215B has a relatively modest 15 watts per channel, and certainly isn't as big and powerful as some of it's bigger, but similiar, Marantz receiver brethren, but it still has that wonderful Marantz sound.  The five main control knobs have a wonderful sense of symmetry on the classic brushed silver Marantz faceplate.  Also present is the classic Marantz blue dial.

The 2215B can be paired with a WC-116 or WC-15T wood cabinet.

Hitachi SR-303 Receiver

Hitachi SR-303 Receiver (1977)

Sure, it's not as powerful as its bigger brothers like the Hitachi SR-503, SR-703 and definitely not the mighty Hitachi SR-2004.  This little Hitachi SR-303 does firmly fall into the cute and sound sweet category though.  It's not a bad little looker either.

The clean lines are helped with a thick aluminum faceplate, real aluminum knobs and a weighty-ness usually reserved for higher end machines.  The tuner dial's white background makes it easy to read, and adds to the simple look as well.

At about 20 watts per channel, this receiver won't blow you out of your house, especially not if you're driving some in-efficient speakers.   But, if you're looking for a good receiver for your apartment, office, or bedroom, this is  a great choice.  It has all the inputs you'll need - Aux, Phono, Tape and push button selectors for 2 sets of speakers.

Teac AS-200 Integrated Amplifier

Teac AS-200 Integrated Amplifier  (1968)

Teac, more often known for their reel to reel tape machines, also made this Teac AS-200 Integrated Amplifier in the late 1960's.  The machine is wrapped in a wood veneered case, and the wood veneer carries through to the flip down front  panel, and even in the square buttons.  Yes, there is real wood veneer (not vinyl!) inlaid in those small square buttons.

Some other interesting features are 2 Phono and Aux inputs, selected between '1' and '2' via small knobs under the flop down panel.  Build quality is very high, with a tremendous attention to detail which carries through to the internals.  Inside there is an amplifier section which is capable of 40 watts per channel, via two modular amplifier boards.

The rest of this series also contained an AF-200 electronic crossover, an the AE-200 power amplifier.
