Is there one "agreed upon" reason why old Marantz receivers are so popular? I thought the general rule of thumb was that all receivers were inferior to amps yet it seems that the Marantz are sought after by some serious audiophiles.
I'm only asking out of ignorance. I'm assuming there was something in these receivers that made them superior to all the other receivers of the time. If so, I assume there's a reason why receivers today do NOT stack up to those old one. I'm not trying to stir a flame war, just asking for a history lesson.
