3. HQAUDIOS RESTORATION & TESTING

Before Restoration

This Marantz 2275 was carefully inspected upon arrival to evaluate its mechanical, electrical, and cosmetic condition.

The power supply, amplifier, preamp and tuner sections, the dial and meter lamps and all controls were checked under power. The electrolytic capacitors were measured against their rated values (within 10% tolerance), and the switches, potentiometers, input/output jacks, speaker terminals and power cord were inspected.

Inspection Findings: All front-panel controls – speaker selector, bass, treble, volume, balance, selector and tuning knobs and the power switch – were checked and operating. The VU, FM/AM, stereo and input indicator lamps were working, and the power cord, fuse, antenna terminals, speaker A/B outputs, heat sinks and jacks were checked. Cosmetically, the aluminum faceplate, knobs and jacks needed cleaning, the wood case showed scratches, and the metal top cover and bottom plate had scratches.

The inspection results were used to determine the work required for this specific unit.

During Restoration

Based on the inspection results, this Marantz 2275 was serviced and refinished according to HQaudios' technical standards while preserving its original design and sound.

• Aluminum Faceplate: The aluminum faceplate was cleaned of dirt and grime.
• Wood Case: The WC-22 wood case was re-veneered where needed and the scratches were touched up.
• Metal Cover & Bottom Plate: Scratches on the metal top cover and bottom plate were touched up with black paint.
• Jacks: The input/output jacks were cleaned of dirt and oxidation.
• Knobs: The knobs were cleaned.
• Cleaning & Detailing: The chassis and front panel were cleaned and detailed.

After Restoration / Final Testing

Once service was completed, the receiver underwent comprehensive testing under real operating conditions.

• Amplifier: Both channels were tested with speakers connected on the Main and Remote outputs.
• Tuner: FM and AM reception and the stereo indicator were checked.
• Inputs & Controls: Phono, Aux and Tape inputs, tone, balance and volume controls were checked.
