They made good stuff in the 1980s too. When my balls dropped and I got a job my first pay packet went on a hifi system and a boxed set of Erik Satie records.

All the gear I had (aside from the Wharfedale speakers) was Marantz and I never regretted it for a second. I didn't just sound good, it was my friend and companion through an extraordinary musical adventure I took then which I doubt many other have been anywhere near before or since.
