| Marantz SM-10: A superb vintage power amp from a legendary company! |
Description
The Marantz SM-10 is a stereo power amplifier released in 1980, designed in the United States and manufactured in Japan. Two large independent monaural amplifiers are combined to form a stereo power amplifier. The left and right sides are independent of each other, and even the heat sinks and hood are completely independent of each other. The circuit configuration is based on Marantz's original Low-TIM design to minimize dynamic distortion. In addition, in order to obtain sound quality as good as that of pure Class-A, the parallel push-pull amplification stage with 3-stage Darlington connection uses a super-high-ft transistor with ample amplification characteristics up to ultra-high frequencies to reduce switching distortion in the Class-A amplifier.The operation can be switched between pure Class-A and Class-AB, and can also be used as a Class-AB monaural power amplifier by BTL connection.Independent power switch and gain control with dedicated left and right sub-panels.
