The rare Marantz Model 8 is considered by audiophiles to be one of the finest amplifiers ever made. It provides 35 watts per channel and with an almost 50-pound weight, it is solidly built. I used it to drive my system since inheriting it from my dad in the early 1980s. The bass is full and the overall sound is warm and very musical. I paired it with its natural mate, the original Marantz Model 7 preamp which I sold in 2021 because we had considerable medical expenses. The amp was overhauled and recalibrated by a reputable electronics shop in New Jersey with new Mullard tubes and satisfactory bench testing just before the pandemic. In short, it is in excellent working condition although the case has a few scratches. Audiophiles praise the bass response, but it is exceptional in all ranges. Saul Marantz took great pride in the Model 8 and it is timeless in its high quality. Both the Model 8 and its successor the Model 8B have continued to appreciate in value and will certainly continue to do so, if you ever decide to sell.
