Saul Marantz and James Lansing is as important to audio as Enzo Farrari and Ferry Porsche is to high performance cars.

A 1968 Ferrari Daytona will outperform 98% of the cars today and a Bozak Concert will out perform 98% of the speakers today.
How many cars today can exceed 170 miles per hour ? How many speakers today can produce the unamplified bass today equal to a Concert Grand. ?

The cars that can out run a Daytona today will cost in the + $200,000 range.The Daytona new sold for $25,000 ! How many speakers today can produce the bass and power of a Concert Grand without a sub woofer ? The Concert Grand sold for $1000 each. It was also covered with walnut veneer at no exra cost.
in 1967 !
To produce a speaker today that matches the Concert Grands performance would cost in excess of $ 50.000 a pair ! without walnut veneer.

So what is to be done?
