This is ONE component of four from an excellent 530 Marantz system that I have split up and sold off to new owners.
This control centre is VERY hard to find and a great addition to an existing 530 Marantz system.
Marantz Control Centre
Model: RC430 with remote RMC-12
Remote control
Easy Bus
Made in JAPAN
This is the IR control centre for the complete Marantz system, I have tested it with the Marantz components listed below, I am unable to advise if the control signals will work with other Marantz system components.
Stereo Tuner - ST530
Linear Turntable - TT530
Power Amplifier - PM630
Stereo Cassette Deck - SD530
This also will also control the legendary Marantz CD-73 CD player but my unit has now been sold.
The purpose of this list of components above is to show what gear I have tested this control centre with - THESE ARE NOT INCLUDED WITH THE CONTROL SYSTEM!
WHAT IT DOES:
The RMC-12 (handheld IR remote control) "talks" to the RC430 box and controls individual components of the stereo system and also provides two separate AC power on-off functions.
The remote is a mass of buttons and controls with just about any function you care to name on any connected component via the cable serial bus system.
When the remote is talking to the RC430, the indicators for signal received are very clear on the receiving equipment - its nice to have solid positive feedback when you push buttons!
A central tray holds the RMC-12 remote in place while not in use
Uses a special 240V power connector at the rear - SUPPLIED (these are so so hard to find)
TESTING:
Completely tested and functions perfectly, not only from the point of receiving signals from the remote but passing those control commands to the various Marantz components via the bus system.
A pair of bus system cables is included
The power on/off (two sections) for other components also works without any problems. These outlets are special Euro 2 pin sockets.
I am supplying just one of these switched power outlet cables. I have seen these available on Euro and UK sites should you want more.
Each controlled outlet has two sockets, total maximum power 200W each section which is plenty for the other Marantz components.
Working great - connected the various components via these power outlets and both manual on-off and via the RC430/RMC-12 remote control system worked fine.
COSMETIC CONDITION:
Case of the receiver (RC430) is in excellent condition
Case of the remote control is in very good - excellent condition, NO cracks or chips to the plastic casing of the control but a couple of light scuff marks to the rear.
Uses 2x AA batteries - nothing special about these, but NOT supplied due the restrictions on shipping batteries.
Supplied with system control cables which connect from this RC430 to the various components under control, 1 pair (orange plugs - blue cable)
In a nutshell, I am offering exactly as photographed - if you cannot see something, it is NOT included
These Marantz system control components are very hard to find and when you do, very expensive!!
