I really enjoyed your review on this! Thanks. The THD overall was underrated. I wonder why they underrated it so much? Distortion specs were a major consideration (for me) when making a buying decision, especially back then. Another fun one, thanks!

Thanks again, Scott! I think that distortion specs were (are) just a good way to compare the gear, but with music, we can tolerate several % before it is noticeable- not so much with listening to a tone. Find the May 1973 Issue of Stereo Review and read the article by Bob Carver about distortion if you have not. As for the Marantz 4430 (which I am happy to say is mine now), I am guessing that they tested several of them and went with the worst THD reading and added some more fudge factor to that....

can't go wroth with the silver Marantz receivers/amplifiers from that time

I agree- even with the Marantz Tax- thanks for taking your time to comment!
