Customer Testimonials: "Just wanted to drop you a line and let you know how happy I am with the SX-850 I purchased from you a couple weeks back. I've had a chance to listen to now for over a week and it really is a significant upgrade from my old SX-680, which I loved for 30 years. The unit is absolutely gorgeous (looks mint to me), everything functions correctly, and the sound is just what I had hoped it would be. Not sure why the old 70's era gear sounds so much warmer to me, but it just does. I'm very glad to have a new vintage piece that I know has been bench tested and functions perfectly. That peace of mind is worth every penny spent. Very impressed by my experience with Classicaudio. Thanks Again."

"I just wanted to thank you for the 2270 - it is an absolute beast! The receiver is in outstanding condition and sounds incredible, bringing out the best in both my vinyl and AM/FM listening. I have recommended your site to several people already, and don't be surprised to see me buy something again! Keep up the great work!"
Thanks again -- Mark
"The MR-67 arrived last week Thursday. I could not be more pleased
the packing was excellent and the unit looks better than I had hoped.
This is my first MR-67 and I am very impressed with the sound it makes a
very sweet sounding contrast to my Tandberg 3011. Thanks again."
"The SX showed up Monday and it is superb! Thanks!"
Doug

Your service is was absoulutly first rate and I would recomend you to anyone looking for vintage audio! It was an absoulute joy dealing with you and all my expections were surpassed."
Thanks again Larry
"Thought you'd like to know I received the SX-828 yesterday. I'm amazed at the quality of the unit you shipped - it looks brand new, as though it had arrived from a time machine after 35 years! It looked good in the pix, but it is in better condition than I had hoped for. The FM section sounds great and has a totally silent background, obviously a well aligned unit.
You can be sure I'll refer anyone I know who is looking for an older stereo system to your site."
Ron
"I wanted to thank you for the KA-9100. It's in near perfect condition cosmetically and operates flawlessly. I have already recommended you to some friends and would be happy to do business with you again in the future. ....Thanks again, this amp is georgous. It pleases me just to look at it!"
Joseph
"The receiver arrived today. When you said it's in excellent condition, you weren't kidding!
I just bought, locally, a near-new Technics SA-101 (I love these entry-level models) and the Akai's condition is a close match.
FM reception is great, as is CD playback."Daniel
"I got the Yamaha CR-1020 today in good shape after it's long trip across the country. It appears to be exactly as in the photographs. Thanks for packing it well! I've only had a little while to check it out so far but it appears to work perfectly with FM and my turntable.
Thanks for everything. Have a great New Year!"
-Kevin-
"Well, I finally got the receiver hooked up Friday evening. Everything seems to work great. I have not used the aux input yet. The FM and phono sections sound even better than I expected. Its been 25+ years since I last heard one of these Marantz receivers, and I had forgotten what I was missing."
Thanks,
Spencer
"Just wanted to let you know that the Marantz arrived in good shape. It's been set up at grandmother's and she is just overwhelmed as was I with its quality. Even with her Bose bookshelf speakers, the sound is fabulous and she is able to pull in all of her favorite radio stations on both AM and FM as well as play her favorite tapes and cd's.
Everything that was advertised about the reciever was certainly accurate and exceptional.
Thanks for the fast shipping and the great communication. I certainly will be doing business with you again in the future."Robert
"I received the gear 10/8 in good shape. Really nice stuff. As advertised. Great sounding equipment. Thank you again."
Tracee
"Got the 1050 a few days ago. Sounds amazing, and it's in great shape. Thanks again".
Chris
"the Sansui amp and tuner (AU-717, TU-717) arrived this afternoon. They were very well packaged and arrived with no handling damage at all. Both units are exactly as described and sound fantastic. The tuner is the best I''ve ever heard.
FYI, I'm matching these with a pair of Snell K.5 monitors, a Velodyne sub, and my other sources besides the tuner are a vintage Luxman turntable and a Yamaha CD player.
It's been a pleasure doing business with you and I will keep your website in my favorites as I would definately buy from you again."
Thanks,
Jon
"Good Morning! Received both the Marantz 2235 + Pioneer SX-636 yesterday. Am VERY pleased. Am looking forward to future purchases. Best of luck in the future."
Marc
"The amp (Pioneer SA-7500) arrived yesterday. I set it up yesterday and it seems to work fine ... I haven't had a chance to check out every input channel but the aux input certainly is OK, and all the controls work. And by the way it sounds fabulous!! I am using it to drive a pair of B+W bookshelf speakers, which are more than 20 years old themselves. With the "modern" receiver I had been using to drive the B+W's, the hiss noise was unbearable. This 30-year-old Pioneer amp has virtually no noise floor, and effortless power. It really does sound good. I have to admit I was rather nervous buying used electroics over the internet, but I would recommend classicaudio.com to anyone who is loves well-built gear."
Thanks,
Frank
"...I received the Sansui 9090DB on 6/8/07. It's a beautiful receiver and came with no shipping damage... A pleasure doing business with you!"
thanks, Dan
"Got it...in beautiful condition. Well packed and pristine.
Thanks for the high quality service."
Peter
"Thanks for the great service and the great product! My Marantz 2275 arrived in as close to perfect condition as anyone could expect! The awesome thing about buying from classic audio is the fully operational condition of these incredible vintage units. The sound and performance are beautiful! I had spent many an hour listening and looking at Marantz, Yamaha, and many other brands of higher end equipment when i was a teenager in the mid to late 70's. I sure didn't make enough money to buy much of it, but the salesmen were very patient with me, something you probably wouldn't find these days. It's just such a satisfying thing to be able to purchase these wounderful pieces of equipment 30+ years later and have them sound so good. Thanks again, I will be a customer for life."

"The Sansui 7070 arrived this afternoon, and just got it hooked up for the customary
shakedown cruise. The cabinet still has the rubber feet on the bottom! So far the
receiver is exactly as advertised and I haven't run across anything unusual yet. I
have it hooked up to a pair of really sharp Sansui SP-1500 speakers that I picked
up at a garage sale earlier this month, and the 7070 is perfectly suited to drive
them, and it's a sweet retro system base to flesh out with additional gear in the
future.My first observation was that FM tuner section on this old thing is just fantastic,
clearly tuning in a few stations that I could not receive without annoying static
on another tuner (with the *same* basic dipole antenna). Now I can listen to those
formerly static-laden, weak stations clearly, and in stereo. Whoever designed and
built that tuner section knew their stuff, and the same goes for your staff that
recently aligned the tuner."William
"I received my 2020 yesterday and all I can say is, VERY IMPRESSIVE!
As I told you before, I'm rebuilding my old system and in doing so, I picked up a couple of units (cassette & 8 track decks) on e-bay. I must say, I may have gotten them a little cheaper, but there is by NO MEANS, the quality that I received from you!!!! Neither one worked without repair, and the cost of freight was outrageous.
I highly recommend your products and if anyone thinks that your prices are a little higher than what they would like to spend.....think again!!
Well worth every penny! Impressive from the "documentation of service" right down to the packaging.
Thank you again and I look forward to doing business with you in the future."
Bill
"I received the stereo yesterday (SX-939). Although I haven't listened to it yet, if
the condition of the exterior is any indication of how it will sound, it
will be amazing. Oh what memories this has brought back.If you get or have another Pioneer sx series (prior to the silver age) of
this level, let me know. My brother is envious."Thanks again.
Paul
"Thanks for the good service,i received the 950 on Wednesday and it was well packed and in good condition.It sounds great and is in excellent condition as you stated.I am glad to know there is a reliable source for classic audio as i would not take a chance on buying through ebay.I have some ess amt1b speakers and the 950 sounds pretty good with them."
Dave
"I WAS SO DAMN PLEASED WITH IT I FAILED TO THANK YOU!!!
I don't know how classic audio works but honestly if you ever need a letter ... let me know!!!
This unit you classified as very good. Well... I am a cynic as a rule.. And I never class anything above it's due but Geeze. This unit is in Excellent condition, you can argue it with me later.
Thanks Again I will look and Buy again!!"
Lawrence"P.S. Packaging was great too!"
"Just wanted to say that I received the Pioneer SX 850 about two weeks
ago. It sat on my floor unopened for those two weeks because I was so
busy with my work that I didn't even have time to open it and try it
out. But now I have, and I must say it's a beauty! I appreciate the
secure packing that you did and the excellent work that you did getting
the unit back up to specs. I can see why this model gets so many raves
from vintage enthusiasts. I have at this point tried out all the
functions and inputs and outputs and everything works like a dream.
(I'm using it with a Dual 1219 turntable, a couple of tape decks, and a
laptop computer (not exactly retro, that last item!)Thanks again for the great service, the honest advertising, the secure
shipping, and the great restoration work on the unit that I bought."--Ed
"The Marantz table arrived today, very fast shipping, thanks! it's in better than expected condition."
Michael
"Well the 2235B arrived today.I got it all connected and it sounds great.Everything works and it looks like new.I'm very pleased."
Frank
"The McIntosh came today. Looks really nice. I was worried the cabinet wouldn't have the Panlocs-but there they were ! Great packing."
Chris
"Got the mc250 today. It's in great shape and sounds wonderful with my Klipsch Cornwalls. Better than anything else I've plugged into them so far......Thanks for the great service and communication!"
"I was in such a hurry I forgot to mention what a nice job you did on the manual and the packing. I really appreciate this level of service, especially in todays world."Paul
"Just wanted to let you know the Phase Linear Sound System came in today and man do those babies look good. Man they look new. WOW!!"
Roger
"What wharehouse did you find these units out of ? ? They look like they are brand new. They look marvelous. I am using my magnifying glass to find any scratches. CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN."
Gary
"I received the receiver yesterday. It is beautiful! Thanks a lot."
-Chris V.
"The MC2100, (S/N 25W60) arrived yesterday. It is difficult to believe that this amp is 30-35 years old."Dennis
"I received the amp on Monday and the case arrived today. Both are in excellent condition as described on your website. I would be interested in buying another power amplifier directly from you again after you went through it and tested it. Please keep me in mind if you come across another Marantz 250 or bigger (a 510 would be great!) that is in excellent condition. Thanks for the honest deal."
Chris
"The 8080 arrived today, safe and sound, and well packed. It looks great, and better yet it sounds great! It takes me back to my younger days! The only problem is that it seems to have weathered the years better than I have!"
Thanks alot, Jim"the mr 74 arrived safely.it looks to be new out of the box.i am very pleased!"
Dan
"I spent last night listening to the sansui matched integrated and tuner set...wow!!!!
I used them with Spica TC-50s and they are smooth and easy to listen to - wonderful. The antenna I used on the tuner was a wire circle on 1 foot of twin lead and damn...am I actually listening to radio?!! This is the best tuner performance I've ever had. I will now listen to radio again for the first time in quite a while. Thanks."Paul
"The Adcom arrived today,right on time...everything is in pristine
condition...I have been a Delivery Driver for U.P.S. the past 27
years,and I have to say that your packaging is the BEST I've ever
seen...bar none."Thanks again,
Mike
"The MR-71 arrived on Friday. It looks and sounds great. There were no
surprises - I impressed with how clean the tuner is, all lettering is intact
and there are no signs of wear. I am impressed with how well built McIntosh
products are. Your double boxed packing was excellent. Thanks for the
quick service. Best wishes to you and Classicaudio."rf
"Hi
I just received my Marantz 2252B, and it's great.
It's like à brand new one, nothing bad and a great sound of Marantz that I always like.
Thank you very much for this.
You have à good site and I think it's important to have those old stéréo sound systhems to sell in very good shape.
thank you again."
Pierre
"Just a note to let you know that the Sansui 9090 I bought from you about 2 years past still sounds great. It's in the bedroom and doesn't get used as much as the living room system but I treasure it. As a matter of fact my brother in law sells high end stereo in Florida and when he was visiting a few months ago I floored him when he saw that reciever."
Regards,
Ron
"Marantz 2270 receiver arrived last week in good shape. Very happy with it. It is in even better shape than you described and sounds wonderful, almost tube-like. It sounds better than my new $1,600 Marantz SR 8200 latest model Home Theatre receiver."
Thanks,
Jim
"I received the Pioneer SX-7730 in the mail today. It was packed well and in good shape. The unit is as you described it. It really looks cool! I gave it a good cleaning and hooked it up. Wow! Sounds great! The tuner performs better than the Onkyo digital tuner I have!
Thanks a lot. Now all I need are some HPM 100's or CS-77A's! Some Klipsch Heresey's would be nice too."
Thanks again,
Wade

"Sorry for the delayed response, I was out a few days. I did get the SX 1050 ( I forget if it was Tuesday or Wednesday) anyways, it looks and works great. I am waiting for the new speakers and FM antenna I ordered to compliment the situation."
Thanks, Steve
