Marantz 2226B question

[gil]

Just got one of these at a garage sale and from what I read it has 26
WPC.

How is it that this unit can rock and pump my power hungry ADS L300
the way it does? I know this is no high end unit but many amps and
receivers have come through here with two to three times the power and
none have sounded as powerful.

Any thoughts?

Maybe the amp section distorts in a tube-like fashion with compression.

I like how old Marantz receivers look, so I hope you enjoy yours.

Amplifiers sometimes sound louder when they are distortion the sound.
Distorted sound can subjectively sound louder than an undistorted sound of
equal sound pressure level.

It's Krooglish time!

> they are distortion the sound

How's the religion thing lately, Arnii? I heard God is mad at you for
not doing your duty by interfering with abortion mills. If I were in
your place, I'd do a little less Krooglishing in public and a little
more campaigning to save the unborn. You don't want to be on God's
****-list, do you?

Stephen, even though I dont know a heck of a lot about HI-FI, the
"compression" thought makes some sense...I tried a separate pre-amp
connected to the amp section of the 2226b and the sound was weaker,
could the compression be in the pre-amp section of the receiver?
The only thing I have to compare it against is my NAD 7100, while the
NAD is definitely a better receiver and has a softer more detailed
sound, the Marantz really pumps the base and mids like NAD can't with
my speakers.
Im blown away by the "big" sound of the 2226b, it brings me back to
the sound of the 70's and yes it has a nice look to it.

I was thinking of the output stages of the amp. Some types of
transistors or ICs have more benign distortion than others.

The other preamp probably just has lower output than the Marantz preamp.

For an experiment, try it again but make sure the "soft clipping" is
turned off.

Seventies super receivers have quite a following. Sorta like muscle cars

Speaking of shame, have you applied for re-admission to Goose Puke
Baptist Church? Being known as a potential pedophile is quite your
little cross to bear.

**Yep. You've compared it to some pretty crappy amps. I suggest you
comparre it to a modern Rotel or NAD sometime. For 1978, the 2226b was
OK. It 2007, it is barely adequate.

Boon, I'm surprised that you're willing to admit that you've ever lowered
yourself to listening to any stereo receiver under $1 large.

Not unless the old receiver was in good condition, but badly designed from
the onset.

I'm referring to issues like the fact that modern low cost receivers often
put out appreciably more power than the oldies from the 70s.

In the Middle Ages, religious zealots tested witches by dunking them and
burning them. In the pre-Enlightenment days of our civilization,
monsters were invented to keep children from wandering into the woods.
In the mid-20th century, McCarthy hunted commies with a threatening
piece of paper. Now, in the 21st century, we have Usenet idiots whacking
off in a shared fantasy about imaginary "science" rituals that are
supposed to magically ward off the E.H.E.E.'s enchantments.

On behalf of the human race, I request that neither of you ever mention
"DBT" again until you've actually participated in a real one. Get
yourselves to the cathedral at Harman or some other place you can never
join and take part in a single real DBT. Until then, stop jizzing on
Usenet. OK?

I guess you didn't notice that I've already excluded DBT issues from my
comments.

As long as you don't clip the smaller receiver and its otherwise a good
unit, you should be good to go.

I think you may recollect an anecdote where an audiophile's son swapped in a
Pioneer receiver in place of his dad's heavy metal? That receiver was only
about 40 WPC as I recall.

At the time, I think the 2226 was the Marantz entry level receiver. I think
they later went even lower. 2215???

**Close, but no cigar. The entry level receiver was the 2216b. The
lineage of Marantz receivers went roughly as follows:

2215 (Blue/blackout dial)
2220 "
2225 "
2240 "
Etc


2216 (Blue/blackout dial, with gold trim below dial)
2218 "
2226 "
2238 "
Etc

2216b (Gold dial/blue backlit)
2218b "
2226b "
2238b "
Etc

As a general rule, the move from the eariest listed models (which are
not the earliest Japanese Marantz recivers) to the later models involved
a substantial technology leap. However, the move to the even newer
models involved no substantial technological improvements, but did
involve (IMO) a significant drop back in construction quality. Extruded
heatsinks were replaced by folded aluminium. These changes were to
reduce costs, rather than provide better value for consumers. SOP.

Trevor, I do have NAD stuff here and in no way I am comparing the
2226b to any of them, my amazement with the 2226b is the way it makes
my ADS L300 speakers "punchier" than I have heard them before, even
with the NAD receivers and others I have here, I just think it says a
lot for a low power receiver that came out in the 70's.

I own a Marantz 2238B and a Luxman R-1040. Have for years. Mention
it all the time. Write articles about them. List them in my
equipment profiles.

Sannder you're are being, deliberittley obtuce again, Snader. Given™
Sandeer that nobody has ever relaibley indentified competently-built

all competently-designed amp's all sound-alike.

I don't need to prove what an idiot like you can't hear.
If you need proof for yourself of what an idiot like you can't hear,
prove it for yourself. In fact, there is a whole lot more
you might wish to prove, regarding your sordid background here.
Like, maybe you can prove someone sent you kiddie porn in th email,

You can find my measurements at www.pcavtech.com . Don't think I posted any
results of my tests of stereo receivers.
