But, you can find one on eBay occasionally for about $300. This model
puts out 130 real RMS watts per channel, not the fake "peak" watts hi-fi
makers claim today. In fact, most 1970s Marantz amplifiers actually put
out MORE than the advertised output! Can you imagine that happening
today?


I thought the FTC stopped all that "peak power", IEC, Peak Music Power, etc.
bogus watt ratings years ago. Maybe car amplifiers still suffer from gross
over ratings but aren't home wattages are supposed to be continuous power?
