Marantz
Saul Marantz's tube equipment of 1953 to the mid-1960s is among the most collected American hi-fi ever made, and the archive's Marantz category reflects that. Its main listing is a Model 8 stereo power amplifier with four EL34s and its original cage, sold with replacement Electro-Harmonix tubes; the note on that page explains how to tell an 8 from the later 8B. The other page is the original site's short company profile.
Original Marantz tube equipment carries a large premium, which makes condition and originality the whole story. Check that transformers, capacitors and faceplates are original or properly documented, and be wary of reproduction parts sold as originals.
The Marantz maker page covers the Model 1, the Model 7 of 1958, the 8B and 9, and the 1964 Superscope sale.
