Cool Vintage Gear Now

[Bill Hart]

Two listings currently on the Gon- not that I'm buying but the were cool enough to hold my attention:
a stereo pair of Marantz 1 preamps with all the accoutrements;
and a big Nakamichi turntable.
Somebody can post the links if that's permissible. I'm not financially involved in either of these pieces, but they were both cool in my book. I had seen pics of the Nak before- the Marantz was a real novelty to me.

There are matching Marantz crossovers that were designed to be used with the preamps. Marantz made gear in the 1950s that still looks ultra cool today.

I remember the Nakamichi turntable.

The feature that was unique, and to my knowledge, never used again by any other manufacturer, is its self centering platter.
