MARANTZ MODEL 10 TUBE AMP/ TUNER AND MARANTZ 7 TUBE PREAMP

Hello,
I am about to acquire Marantz model 10 tube amp (NOT 10B) and Marantz 7 tube preamp. The amp is very rare because they made only 100 of them and I've seen one on Ebay for 13k for sale and it is from Europe. Does anybody know the value of these? They are also rack mounted so I think that makes them even more special. Any suggestions will be appreciated .

Are you sure the Model 10 is a "tube amp/tuner"?  I believe it is just a tuner, like the 10B.

Good luck.  Regards,

Yes it is the Tuner, like the 10B but the first model.

ebm,

I tease you sometimes, but I have to admit, that was funny.

The 7C was a great, perhaps the best sounding preamp of the mid 60s.
I bought one used around 1970. By the time I sold it the switches and potentiometers had started to get scratchy. Back then sealed switches and potentiometers were not used at least in consumer electronics. They may not have been available at all. By now unless the toggle switches and pots have been upgraded and power supply rebuilt it would be nothing more than a conversation piece.
