I have a Marantz SR 8500 Receiver that has a couple of cosmetic imperfections up for grabs,this receiver is a monster that was $1500 back in 05’.It is fully functional,has a small chip in the corner of the face plate and a small dent in the metal case,this does not affect the performance in any way.Its not noticed if the receiver is viewed from the front,like in a cabinet or something.

Since I just spent the time looking it up I figured I’d share. This is pre-HDMI switching. It’s got two DVI in and one DVI out, but no HDMI.

And a great review I stumbled on looking for that answer:
