Marantz MD-880's. I have no idea what they'd go for today or if you'd ever find a pair for sale, but from that era I think they were one of the best (especially for the $$$). Not hugely well known, but very highly rated and deservedly so. You'll probably have much more luck finding the JBLs. Or, maybe Dahlquist?
Best speakers circa 77-79'
I'm putting together a "vintage system" to play my old vinyl, and I wanted to find out some recommendations on speakers. My old set of B&W's died a few years back, and my Yamaha NS-20m's are frankensteined with new parts etc. I was considering JBL 4311's or Infinity (I'm not sure which models are best). Any help?? I'd like to stay in the 1976-1979 range (and also the less than $300 range if possible). My records are mostly pop/rock with some jazz and a little classical. My set-up now is a Yamaha 2020 receiver with a B&O turntable. Thanks so much for any information!!
