Marantz 2270 hunt

Just keep looking. Put it in "saved searches" and get notified when one comes up for sales. Their app will help. Good luck.

Place a "wanted to buy" ad on USAudiomart.

You might also try  Hifishark wich searches many sites (including A'Gon/Ebay/Reverb).

Thanks guys...there are a few on eBay right now ..sellers searching for 🔝 dollar of course. Hard to tell on the lower priced ones which would be a good project for light restoration...thanks! 

Have you made a lower offer ,it works alot on Ebay.

I'm not sure if you "have to have" the higher wattage on the 2270, but the 2245 is the same unit with a lower rated output and should be easier to find in your price range. I kind of regret selling mine a few years ago.

There's one on craighslist Santa Barbara for $1200.
