Stereo Receivers from the past...


Perhaps a useless question, but even though I am not a politician I have the right to be useless sometimes! 
In thinking about a second bedroom system...If I were to use a receiver any toughts on good sounding ones you have had.  The best I have had, in the past, were the original Magnum Dynalab 208 and the Nakamichi SR-3a.  I had sold both.  But now with thinking of a bedroom system those do come to mind, but wondering if you have experienced a stereo receiver that you feel is better.  I am not much into compressed streaming but do enjoy a local/public classic Jazz station and the Jazz and female vocals music I own.   Thanks

I had a Marantz 2270 back in '76 - '77. Bought it new from Rabson's on 57st, NYC. Paid $380 + sales tax! Used it for less than 2 years before buying separates - AGI 511 preamp and GAS Son of Ampzilla. Wish I'd have kept the 2270 just for its tuner - NYC FM radio was quite good then!
Nostalgia calls! I bought a Marantz 2235 from an eBay auction with my sole bid of $135 + shipping! Not bad, eh!
Good call on the antenna.  I have used a Magnum indoor model and a Finco and Winegard outdoor antennas. 
Sansui 1000a all tube receiver. Lush sound, plenty of power and great 60s style. Sound great streaming wdcb jazz every morning. Great way to start your day. 
I'm the original owner of a Kenwood KR-8010 receiver bought new in 1978 and after a tune up a few years ago it is still in use and sounds great 135 wpc and made in Japan.
