? cartridge should match vintage marantz reciever

Your 2325 is an awesome receiver- with it's warm buttery sound the Shure should be quite the match for it.

I certainly agree with Elizabeth and would give her ideas a try.

Once you get the combination dialed in you are assuredly in for a treat, sitting back with pretty blue lights and great sound!

Let us know how it turns out--

Having owned many vintage Marantz receivers in the past coupled with the Shure, Stanton, and Grace cartridges of the day I doubt there would be a mismatch with your 2325.

I spent a little time looking for specs on the phono stage for the 2325 but was unable to come up with any numbers, also I don't know which Shure you are using.

I do know that there are some really fantastic Marantz afficionados out there-- Ben Blish being one of them, here is a link to his website-- http://www.classic-audio.com/marantz/2325.html Maybe an E-mail to him will bring some answers.

As far as techs go Mike Zuccaro really knows vintage Marantz and does outstanding work. Perhaps a call to him would help. A google search for him will get you to his website. (He is based out of San Diego) Zuccaro did a great job on my Marantz 150!

Although I have moved to SET monoblocks, I guess it is easy to see that I have a real place in my heart for vintage Marantz!
