Marantz vs. Pioneer Receivers

WOULD LIKE THE INPUT OF ANYONE WHO OWNS OR HAVE HAD REAL EXPERIENCE WITH VINTAGE MARANTZ AND PIONEER RECEIVERS, I.E. MARANTZ 2285 VS PIONEER SX-1050 OR MARANTZ 2325 VS PIONEER SX-1250/1980. ASIDE FROM THE POWER DIFFERENCES, WHICH OF THESE RECEIVERS IS THE MORE MUSICAL. THANKS TO ALL THAT RESPOND.

In the 70s, I was a Dynaco guy, but most of my friends had Marantz receivers. Pioneer was famous at the time for car audio.

Here’s an ad that helped build Marantz’s "battleship" reputation:
