Serviced Marantz 76 WPC 1152DC Stereo Amplifier with Exquisite Custom Cherry Wood Cabinet

This listing features a classic Marantz Integrated Amplifier housed in a meticulously crafted custom cabinet, showcasing the pinnacle of both audio engineering and woodworking artistry.

Custom Cabinet Craftsmanship
Our master woodworker has truly outdone himself with this bespoke cherry wood cabinet, elevating the Marantz 1152DC to a work of art:

Premium Material: Handpicked Pennsylvania black cherry, known for its rich color and fine grain pattern.

Veneer Mastery: The lumber was expertly resawed into veneer, then book-matched to create a stunning, seamless waterfall grain pattern cascading down the cabinet sides.

Refined Finish:
Sanded to an ultra-smooth 320 grit for a flawless surface
Treated with boiled linseed oil to enhance the natural beauty of the cherry wood
Finished with a beeswax polish, imparting a subtle luster and protective layer

The result is a one-of-a-kind enclosure that not only complements the Marantz 1152DC's classic design but also enhances its acoustic properties.
