I have set up the Dynaco MkIIIs with my newly acquired Marantz as a bedroom system powering the infinities. The high efficiency of the infinities (102db) allows for ear splitting volume and great bass from the 50 watt per channel dynacos. This gets used 6-8 hours a night. It does it all. Television is a 52in Sony 1080p LCD with cable as a source.
Entry level of the full function marantz, one generation old.
Dynaco Mark IIIa
Pair rebuild with new cap cans, misc parts and bias kits from dynakitparts.com One new transformer was required. Genelex Gold Lion KT88 reissue tubes (switch off with Tungsol 6550 reissue tubes), original Sylvania 7199 tubes, JJ GZ34 rectifiers.
Sony CDP-CX250
Had since new. Running an optical out to my reciever for a DAC.
Infinity SM-155
Bought new by my father as a gift to me when I was 15. He is a brave man! Don't believe the haters, these are great for rock, full range classical, HT and gaming.
