My Marantz Reference Model SC-7S2 Stereo Preamplifier.
I am the original and only owner since new. It has resided in a custom Critical Mass Systems rack in my dedicated listening room and covered during non-use. It was part of a complete Marantz Reference System.
This was Marantz's cost no object Flagship preamp developed with their best engineering expertise! Beautifully and meticulously built in Japan. It is stunningly beautiful, pictures don't do it justice!
I have all the original boxes, matching metal remote control, owners's manual, power cord, etc.
Tone Audio in their review commented:
"They are some of the most beautiful components I've had in my listening room." and "The Preamp is the Jewel". "While I found the overall level of performance very high in the Marantz (Reference) System, the component that stood out for me in the stack was the SC-7S2 Reference Control Amplifier. The $8,000-$10,000 range is highly competitive, and as much as I love tubes, I'm always on the lookout for a world-class preamplifier that doesn't require glass bottles. I'd put the Marantz on my list of top preamplifiers, offering a big, expansive sound, with a delicacy that rarely exists in the world of solid state."
