When Marantz Decided to Build the Ultimate A/V Receiver

For seven decades, Marantz has defined what's possible in home theater, creating receivers that sound as good with music as they do with movies.

This excellent demo unit in classic Black offers flagship performance with complete professional support at exceptional value.

The HDAM Technology That Sets Marantz Apart

While competitors use off-the-shelf amplifier modules, Marantz employs their exclusive Hyper Dynamic Amplifier Modules (HDAM-SA2)—custom-designed current feedback circuits that preserve every nuance of the original performance. Each HDAM is uniquely engineered and meticulously tuned by Marantz Sound Masters through hundreds of hours of listening. The result is the legendary Marantz sound—warm, spacious, detailed, and utterly engaging whether playing two-channel music or multichannel soundtracks.
