Question by remove me: I own an old 220W Marantz amplifier receiver model 1060. Where can I find the specs?
It needs new tubes, It still plays but every once in a while the tubes give out until I play with the knobs. I’d like to fix it because it’s got that nice warm sound. I’m even thinking of getting a nice pair of speakers to go with it. It’s also got some dirty knobs and pushbuttons. I believe it’s really worth it.

sorry – realised tooo late that i’d given you the integrated and not the receiver specs and they’re waaay basic too..(the specs that is, not the unit which is a really nice bit of kit!)
if you’re into getting it really running well i’d suggest you join diyaudio.com and posting a topic asking for advice – over the past coupla years i’ve built ALOT of kit and these guys have never let me down be it spec-sheets for digital amp chips or good ideas how to make your own rfi shielding for vintage stuff you wanna put in a modern setting. (you ever seen a tube buffered sound card in a pc?)=)
you can buy a service manual for the 1060 integrated here which is the same amp…the receiver info’s hard to find huh! you sure it ain’t a straight forward integrated amp?

What do you think? Answer below!

I also own a Marantz amplifier model 1060, 220 volts bought back in 1974 in Amsterdam it still works fine but it is not using tubes. Its an integrated type amp, but you can detach the coupling on the rear side and use the pre-amp to connect to a bigger power amp.
