desray Posted July 22, 2002 Posted July 22, 2002 This is one of the high-end Marantz Receiver...it features THX-Select feature...and enuff "juice" to crank up practically any speakers for the moment! Sold my Denon for $1,200.00 and topped up another $750.00 for this Receiver...:) And recently added another ADCOM Integrated Amp to power up the Surround Back Channel... By default this Receiver only accepts 6.1 channel upgradable to 7.1... The remote controller is simply great and have just upgraded the firmware of this Remote Controller and using it is a breeze....
desray Posted July 22, 2002 Author Posted July 22, 2002 Nope...from my freind back in Merdeka Audio. ;D
desray Posted July 23, 2002 Author Posted July 23, 2002 Highly recommend this Receiver to all...who is/are pondering for an AMP/RECEIVER upgrade...:) :D

Every year will always try to upgrade at least one Receiver/Amp...heheh.... Since I dun have much money to spare...so I have to make sure I maintain whatever Amp/Receiver I bought to be in very good condition...then can sell in the Secondary mkt again...to fetch some good price...then do the top-up thinghy lor...Viola!
