Have had both Pioneer and Marantz. Liked them nearly equally, but I still kick myself for selling my Marantz 2330. That was the best receiver I have ever heard.
Marantz vs. Pioneer Receivers
WOULD LIKE THE INPUT OF ANYONE WHO OWNS OR HAVE HAD REAL EXPERIENCE WITH VINTAGE MARANTZ AND PIONEER RECEIVERS, I.E. MARANTZ 2285 VS PIONEER SX-1050 OR MARANTZ 2325 VS PIONEER SX-1250/1980. ASIDE FROM THE POWER DIFFERENCES, WHICH OF THESE RECEIVERS IS THE MORE MUSICAL. THANKS TO ALL THAT RESPOND.

In the 70s, I was a Dynaco guy, but most of my friends had Marantz receivers. Pioneer was famous at the time for car audio. Here’s an ad that helped build Marantz’s "battleship" reputation: https://images.cdn.whathifi.com/sites/whathifi.com/files/styles/big-image/public/Marantz_2275ad.scal... |
