best vintage stereo receiver


Hi, looking to step back in time for a vintage stereo receiver for my home office.
I have owned McIntosh, Marantz, Pioneer, Yamaha & Kenwood units in the past.
I need a moderate sized unit that has good turner performance and smooth sound. What would you people recommend? I have been told that Sony and Techniques are out due to cheaper parts used and Marantz units are getting pricey. I will need switchable FM muting and an Aux input for CD use. Thanks

Since I owned a Toshiba SA-750 in high school(30 years ago ouch!) and it sounded as good as my next upgrade Adcom-545 and Adcom preamp. I can only assume the flagship Toshiba SA-7150(dual mono) would give any vintage receiver a good battle.
I also agree with Tandberg. I like the 2075. It puts all the other receivers to shame. Only negative is lack of inputs, but it has a warm and smooth sound not heard in other receivers and a killer tuner.
I think the Marantz 18 and 19 are two of the best (excellent tuners in both). Also, their 2270 has a that "smooth" sound you are looking for.
