Marantz receivers offer some of the best surround sound amplifiers on the market. Check out all their recent models and understand the differences between them.
Marantz AV receivers are some of the best examples of great-sounding surround sound amplifiers on the market.
They have been making audio products since the 1950s and have been long admired for their high-quality equipment.
However, it can be confusing to know which model to buy because there are several different products on the market.
To make things easier, here is a list of the recent models of Marantz receivers with a summary of the main features – so you will quickly see the main differences between them.
There are currently three main ranges:
- CINEMA Series: a new AV receiver range introduced in 2022, which includes all receivers, from slimline to high-end
- SR Series: mid-range to high-end AV receivers
- NR Series: slimline models
The receivers are grouped by their year of release and then listed in order of value – using the Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price as a guide.
The MSRP will often be beaten by retailers, but it is still a helpful guide to the quality of each product.
The specifications are from the models in the US, so you may find these vary slightly worldwide.
If you want some more help understanding all the features and specifications, don’t forget to look at the guide to the best AV receivers in 2022.
