I've been doing this along with the old radios for - well since some of those receivers were new. The Marantz is a great unit. I have one in the museum for background music. No, not elevator music, classic rock. I have several Fishers. They are good, but my favorite is a 7800 Sherwood. It is the unusual model with FM and AM. It is in my office with a pair of speakers I designed using a Seas woofer and Scanspeak mid and tweeter.
