GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Marantz Model 23308 is an all solid state
receiver incorporating the innovative design and
unparalleled technology that have made Marantz
famous in the audio component industry.

The Model 2308 features a sensitive FM tuner,
a highly selective AM tuner, a low distortion
preamplifier, and two direct coupled power
amplifiers on a single chassis, while retaining a
flexibility comparable to that achieved using
separate components. The FM tuner utilizes an
MOSFET front end, ceramic IF filters, and an
advanced integrated circuit for high selectivity
and sensitivity.

The amplifier sections permit the connection of
two stereo pairs of loudspeakers, two turntables
or record changers, two tape recorders, stereo
headphones, and an auxiliary source such as an
additional tuner or a TV sound source. The
23308 also features a variable turnover tone con-
trol and front panel dubbing jacks.

ing materials, carton, fillers, cushioning, etc. They
will prove valuable in preventing damage should it
become necessary to transport or ship the Model
23308. Be careful that you do not inadvertently
throw away or lose the parts packed with the unit.

damage incurred in transit. It has undergone very
strict quality control inspections and tests prior

against the carrier for damage during shipment.

fully with you in such an event. Save the carton
