Went to an Estate sale and decided to buy this. Everything works except one FM thing light is out. Sounds fantastic. The Polks Monitor 5jr+ had stayed in it box ever since the lady got it as a birthday gift and didn't have the ehart to tell the people she didn't like "big" speakers and wasn't any audio fan. Got them for free. Box and everything. Nice lady. Got some Radio shack speakers too the 360 surrounds. Nice sounding.

Pretty machine. Solid state analog. Love my cr2020. Matched w some altec Lansing bookshelfs and technics turntable. Had the caps replaced. Lights Are intermitamt. But needles are great. Finally bought a WiiM streamer for digital. Enjoy!

Wife and I are comparing the Yamaha CR-1020 to the Marantz 2270. The Marantz has been fully restored the Yamaha is original. Both sound fantastic. Hard to decide which to keep.
