STORY
In 1964, Superscope Inc. acquired a small but prestigious hi fi company from Saul Marantz. From this acquisition Superscope developed and marketed Marantz high-fidelity audio products, such as stereo amplifiers, receivers, and record players worldwide.

In 1971, Superscope purchased 50 percent of the stock in Standard Radio Corporation (SRC) of Japan, which had been manufacturing various Marantz products for Superscope. It was the first time an American company had ever been allowed to hold a 50 percent stake in a Japanese public company. In March 1975, SRC changed its name to Marantz Japan. Superscope continued to produce and assemble Marantz products in its U.S. plants and other Asian facilities.

In 1980, Superscope sold its shares of Marantz Japan Inc. to Philips of the Netherlands
