Considering that not all vintage Marantz receivers came with WC-22 wood cabinets – which were sold separately – they're becoming more and more difficult to find. Survival rates drop even further when you realize many owners removed (and tossed?) the WC-22, running the bare metal receivers as styles evolved in the early '80s, and wood cabinets were out of fashion. What were they thinking? This lovingly refinished, original Marantz WC-22, is a particularly nice example. This cabinet was designed to fit any Marantz 22xx or 22xxB, as well as the 4220, 4230, 4240, and 4270, but be aware that sometimes the rear screw holes don't align (varies between models). In that case, some choose to drill for the rear feet, and others see the front feet as enough to secure the unit.

- The History of Marantz
- More than any other person, Saul Marantz defined premium home entertainment.
