Oh, that sucks so much. Wish i had a Marantz.
For the tunner knob, i think you need to replace the whole rod with another one.
Usually, the tuner knobs are basically just a rod with a rotary device on the other end. Open it and see if the rotary device does come out from the rod.
Since the other side is glued into the button, i think you can remove it by carefully drilling into it with a low rotation electric screwdriver. Cannot stress enough on the "careful" part.
Good luck and let us know how that turns out.

If you can't fix it or grow tired of the Marantz.
Please keep me in mind as I would be interested in buying or trading it from you..... Cool
