Marantz

Posted by Ross on November 9, 2016 at 18:41:20:
Yes most of the Marantz models are based upon Denon receives (same parent) but the Marantz models come with a few more bells and whistles, while having a more refined sound.

Most of their HT receivers now include network streaming. They tend to be reliable, so buying lightly used is a way to safe some money and get (almost) the latest features. A Marantz SR7008 offers ethernet streaming (but not wifi) and enough power to drive most speakers. The DAC is surprisingly good. CMV is about $500 for clean used.

"accessories for less" sells factory refurbished units at a substantial discount if you want to purchase as new with a warranty.
