The marantz was their top of the line DD from 1975. Curved tonearm. Was my dad's, he bought it new, and it even still has the "Genuine Wlanut Wood Veneer" sticker on it . The sony is very nice.
I can say that I'm not at all upset that we're blocked in china. The other side has enough trouble with the chinese shills, I really don't want them here.
