Marantz 2220 Vintage Stereo Receiver – 20 WPC, Made in Japan

Marantz 2220 Vintage Stereo Receiver – Serviced, 20 WPC, Made in Japan, Walnut-Grain Metal Cabinet

One of the sweetest entry points into the golden-era Marantz sound — the 2220 delivers a warm, musical presentation that punches well above its modest 20 watts per channel. Built in Japan from 1973–1974 and presented here in its standard Marantz walnut-grain metal cabinet, it brings the classic brushed silver faceplate, blue dial glow, and easy-listening Marantz voicing that made the 22xx series legendary.

Pair it with our RA-Twin II Bluetooth streamer and you get the best of both worlds — vintage Marantz character with effortless streaming from your phone, tablet, or laptop. The 2220’s well-regarded MM phono stage also makes it a natural fit for a compact vinyl setup.
