Marantz - Model 1090 Top Class Solid state stereo amplifier

Marantz Model 1090 high-end amplifier

Iconic and very good amplifier from Marantz's golden years (1978)

Made in Japan

The Marantz Model 1090 delivers, with its 2 x 45 watts of continuous power, a tight, warm, and punchy sound. This is characteristic of Marantz equipment from that period.

Equipped with a wide range of connections, including two sets of speakers, 2x tape monitor, tuner, aux, and 2 (!) phono inputs

Additionally equipped with pre-out / main-in connections at the rear, allowing the amplifier to be used on its own as a preamplifier or power amplifier.

In very good condition, with only very small signs of use.

Everything works as it should, without crackling knobs or potentiometers. The sound quality is truly fantastic, with deep bass and a nicely clear midrange and treble.

The thick brushed aluminum front and aluminum knobs give this amplifier a beautiful, high-quality vintage look.

Thanks to its excellent phono stage, it is highly suitable for enjoying vinyl records again.

The amplifier is carefully and professionally packaged and shipped insured with track & trace.
