Summary:



Some specs:

AV 7.1 Surround Reciever
100 watts per channel
5.75 x 17.45 x 14.25 HxWxD
26.5 lbs
HDMI 1.3a input 1.3a output


I've been a die hard "two channel" guy for quite a few years and finally decided to go Audio / Video. I sold my "Audiophile " integrated amp and bought the SR 6003 after a a good listen at the audio shop. Mainly I was listening for good quality sound and also wanted HDMI 1.3a. for a Blue Ray player.

I then bought a new Oppo BDP-83 Blue Ray player. I am getting fantastic results with this combo! The Marantz has exceded my expectations as far as sound quality. Very close to the far more expensive integrated I owned before and better in some respects because the multi channel playback is fantastic.

Although the SR 6003 has 7.1 capability I am only going 5.1 because my room doesn't really need that extra set of speakers. Instead I am using the back surround speaker hook ups to bi-amp my main speakers which is a very nice option Marantz incorporated in this unit.

Classy looking unit, easy to read display, back lit remote, Pure Audio mode, easy to understand set up and menu adjustments even for a rookie AV guy like me. The Audyssey speaker set up callibration actually works which supprised me. I only had to make minor adjustment to the sub and everything blended in very smooth .

This unit has so many functions and options I could go on for hours writing this review so I will just say I am very pleased with my purchase and would reccomend it to any one who may be in the market for a quality AV reciever that actually sounds very musical and won't break the bank.

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
