Re: can I power with this?

I'm nor sure what the power output of the Marantz is, but according to ACI the Sapphire need at least a 15 Watt/ch amp.

Though other people have used lower powered Tube amps with the Sapphires.

How much watts you need will depend mainly on your listening preferance. Hardrock and full blast orchestarl works can easily need more than 100 Watts, othetrwise I believe 25-50 Watts/ch shoud be able to drive the Sapphires to a pretty good level.

Of course you always can upgrade your amp later on as money becomes available.

Hope this helps.
