Marantz SR6003 review

 

Don't let an absent iPod dock spoil your enjoyment of Marantz's seductive new AV receiver

Solid, ultra-intense movie sound ; Great with CDs ; Stonkingly easy-to-use

Soundstage a little shut-in ; No networking ; No iPod connection

A user-friendly, reliable and powerful receiver that shows its rivals how it's done

Marantz SR6003 7.1 A/V Receiver

 

Marantz enjoys an enviable reputation as one of the finer consumer electronics companies in the audio/video industry, with products ranging from affordable home theater receivers to the “audiophile” 2-channel components of their highly regarded...

I thoroughly enjoyed my time with the Marantz and will be sad to see its very pretty face go. Marantz has delivered a great product with excellent sound from 2-channel, multi-channel, and theater soundtracks. They’ve even come up with a pretty...

Marantz SR6003

 

Marantz is back in the game with its SR6003 receiver &mdash it features up-to-date audio decoding, superb sound and drop-dead gorgeous looks.

Excellent surround sound ; Great stereo sound for the price ; Beautiful cosmetics ; Easy to use

Have heard better music replay

Conclusion With the dollar in flux at the moment, the price of the Marantz SR6003 is still quite volatile. From an original AU$1899, it peaked at AU$2499 a few months ago, but now sits at a more sensible AU$2199 — and at this price it's a really good...

Marantz SR6003 A/V receiver

 

Sometimes you take a shine to a piece of gear not for any one big reason but for a host of little ones, some of them hard to define. The Marantz SR6003 A/V receiver is one such item. It's nicely made and very attractive, but not drop-dead on either...

Marantz SR6003 A/V Receiver Reviewed

 

Appearance wise, this receiver is "crazy, sexy and cool," while the sound the SR6003's two-channel music performance "had me grinning ear to ear at just how outstanding the sound quality was." When using surround sound, the performance was...

While I adore the SR6003, there are a few things that caused me to take exception. For starters, I would have liked one more HDMI input. While dual HDMI outs are a big deal for me and many others, I'm sure three HDMI inputs just don't cut it. If a DVR,...

The Marantz SR6003 A/V receiver is about as full-featured and well-rounded as a receiver can get in today's marketplace, regardless of price. However, when you consider its sub-$1,000 sticker, its performance and prowess becomes all the more...

Marantz SR 6003

 

Excellent sound and build quality. Massive range of assignable inputs.

Complex to set up. Minor one: remote control signals clash with my Arcam amps.

Marantz SR 6003

 

Performance is excellent. Good looks too.

The only negative is that Audyssey does not work when it is decoding HD audio so you must have a player that can decode HD audio.

Marantz SR 6003

 

Great receiver, looks great, sounds wonderful for the money. Not audiophile quality by any means, by with my KEF 3005SE speakers , no complaints at all. Easy to set up, though I found that the auto setup needed a lot of tweaking. Once done, very...

None at the money.
