The Marantz 250 M is a power amplifier that was introduced in the late 1970s. It features a distinctive design characteristic of Marantz products from that era, with a brushed aluminum front panel and retro-style knobs. The amplifier is known for its high output power and reliability, making it suitable for driving a wide range of speakers. One of the key specifications includes an output power of 250 watts per channel at 8 ohms, and it can deliver even higher power at lower impedances. The 250 M employs a high current capability, enhancing its performance with low-resistance loads, and features a classic Class AB amplifier design that is praised for its sound reproduction. Additionally, it includes various protection circuitry to prevent damage to both the amplifier and connected speakers. The unit has a frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz, with total harmonic distortion (THD) typically around 0.03% at rated output. Overall, the Marantz 250 M is often favored by audio enthusiasts for its robust build quality and performance characteristics.
