✨ Marantz 2226B Vintage Stereo Receiver — Serviced • Partial Recap • Warm-White LED • 3+ Hr Tested🎶 OverviewThe Marantz 2226B vintage stereo receiver is a classic 1970s silver-face Marantz featuring Gyro-Touch tuning, dual meters, phono input, and approximately 26 watts per channel.This example has been professionally serviced, carefully cleaned, upgraded with warm-white LED illumination, and completed a 3+ hour bench and listening test prior to shipment.Internal inspection also shows evidence of a prior selective/partial recap performed before current ownership. Multiple electrolytic capacitors appear to be later replacements in the amplifier/power and tuner circuitry, while numerous original capacitors and components remain.This receiver is accurately represented as professionally serviced with a prior partial recap. It is not represented as fully recapped, fully restored, electronically rebuilt, or professionally aligned unless specifically documented.✨ Cosmetic ConditionThis Marantz 2226B presents very well for its age.Bright, clean brushed-aluminum faceplateOriginal lettering and graphics remain intactKnobs and pushbuttons present nicelyDual meters display wellGyro-Touch tuning wheel presents cleanlyWarm-white LED illumination installedOriginal black metal top cover includedExterior carefully cleanedMinor cosmetic marks visible on some faceplate edges/cornersNormal age-related wear on the metal cover and rear panelPlease review all photographs closely, as they form part of the cosmetic description.🔧 Service & TestingThis receiver has been professionally serviced prior to sale.Service, inspection, and testing include:Professional serviceExterior cleaningControls and switches cleaned/exercised as neededWarm-white LED dial illumination installedInternal visual inspectionPrior selective/partial recap evidentMultiple electrolytic capacitors appear to be later replacementsReplacement capacitors visible in amplifier/power and tuner circuitryNumerous original capacitors and components remainBoth channels checkedSpeaker outputs checkedHeadphone output checkedAM/FM tuner operation checkedFM stereo operation checkedMeter operation checkedPhono input checkedAUX input checkedTape functions checkedTone controls and balance checkedLoudness, mono, filter, and muting functions checked3+ hour bench and listening test prior to shipmentPartial Recap DisclosureThe selective capacitor replacement was performed before current ownership.Internal inspection shows a mixture of older/original components and electrolytic capacitors that appear to be later replacements. For that reason, the receiver is described as partially recapped, not fully recapped.No claim is made that every capacitor, transistor, resistor, or other age-sensitive electronic component has been replaced.💡 Warm-White LED IlluminationThe dial illumination has been upgraded to warm-white LED lighting.This provides a clean, classic presentation that is closer to the original Marantz appearance while offering lower heat and longer expected lamp life than conventional incandescent bulbs.🎛 FeaturesApproximately 26 watts per channel into 8 ohmsAM/FM stereo receiverMarantz Gyro-Touch flywheel tuningSignal-strength meterFM tuning meterPhono inputAUX inputTape monitor functionsMultiple speaker outputsBass controlMidrange controlTreble controlBalance controlLoudnessHi FilterMonoFM MutingHeadphone outputClassic 1970s silver-face Marantz styling📦 IncludedMarantz Model 2226B stereo receiverOriginal black metal top coverInstalled warm-white LED illuminationNo wood cabinet is included.Only items specifically shown or described are included.🎥 YouTube DemoA YouTube demonstration video has been added showing this actual receiver in operation, including:Warm-white illuminationAM/FM tuningControls and switchingMeter operationAudio playbackVideo title:Marantz 2226B Vintage Receiver Demo | Serviced • Partial Recap • Warm-White LED | BASH Vintage Audio📦 Shipping & PackingVintage audio equipment requires careful packing and protection during shipment.This receiver will be securely prepared for transport with attention to the faceplate, knobs, controls, chassis, and metal cover.Packing may include:Heavy-duty shipping cartonMultiple layers of protective materialFaceplate and control protectionChassis stabilizationReceiver secured to minimize movementInsured shipmentTrackingSignature confirmation when appropriateReverb Safe Shipping / applicable carrier protection when usedContinental USA shipping: $125Please retain all original boxes, packing materials, and protective packaging until you have fully tested the receiver and any issue has been resolved.↩️ Returns & Issue ResolutionIf you experience an issue, please contact BASH Vintage Audio through Reverb before opening a return request so we can review the situation and determine the most appropriate resolution.Possible resolutions may include:Troubleshooting assistanceA pre-approved local repair estimateCarrier insurance or Reverb Safe Shipping claimReverb return when appropriateIf a return is approved, the return shipping label will be issued through Reverb after approval.The return-label and authorization process may take up to 5 business days or longer, depending on Reverb processing, carrier requirements, and the circumstances of the return.Buyers should retain all original boxes, packing materials, and protective packaging until testing is complete and any issue has been resolved.Approved returns must go through the applicable Reverb process and must be returned in the same condition received, using the original packing materials whenever possible.⚠️ Vintage Electronics DisclosureThis is a vintage electronic component manufactured several decades ago.Although this receiver has been professionally serviced, cleaned, upgraded with LED illumination, and subjected to extended testing, vintage electronic components can age or fail unpredictably.The condition description reflects the receiver's operation during inspection and testing prior to shipment and should not be interpreted as a guarantee against future component failure.🎵 BASH Vintage AudioAt BASH Vintage Audio, we focus on carefully presented vintage hi-fi equipment with clear and accurate descriptions.When a receiver has been selectively serviced rather than completely rebuilt, we say so.
