from Music Direct Summary:
There is very little about info about this player on most of the review sites, so I took a chance and bought one. I had to replace my ailing Denon cd changer after years of faithful service. I've only had the Marantz up and running for about a day, so this is not a full review. But to those wondering if this deck is worth it, I say YES.
Right out of the box music was very clear and open with plenty of detail to boot.
Low level resolution was a little lacking, but that might show up as the player settles in. SACD and DVD-A sounded much more involving the my Denon 2900 with more energy in the music then I had been used to.
The only complaint I have so far is that this is the slowest changer I have ever seen. When skipping from disk to disk or having the player in random mode, the time it takes to go from one to the other could best be described as glacial. I mean species could evolve before the next disk loads. But when it does the wait doesn't seem that bad. I really have not checked out the video end except that the picture is much better then My old Denon. I'll post again when I have more. Strengths:
The sound on cd,SACD and DVD-A is very good to my ear. Non captive power cord is a plus and power button on the remote. Weaknesses:
`Changer is as slow as molasses in the winter time. Remote is lacking in some features and has that light absorbing glow on some buttons. All DVD remotes should be backlit with real light. Similar Products Used:
Denon 2900,Denon 3300 and a few others.
