Marantz SR5500?

[JasonD]

Does anyone have any experience with the new Marantz?
On paper the 5500 sounds great.
How does the power supply in these rate?

I myself considered going with this unit - great price can be had. ALso, had an external Marantz 120x2 amp, but sold it off as I changed directions.

I recall a link that showed actual ratings for power at 5 channels driven showing the Marantz doing well - just as well as it's big brothers in output. Guess it comes down to the bells and whistles.

The shop I bought my speakers from, a place that's been around and been a dealer for most everything one time or another stated that he thought that Marantz is the best under 1000.

It's good stuff for the price, go for it.
