Ultimate Team-Up:
The AV7705 offers flexibility that adds a stunning array of up-to-date features to your old receiver (with pre-ins), or you can put it in charge of one or more of your own amplifiers for up to 11-channels of power, including two subwoofers. The AV7705 makes a stylish control-center at the head of
any system with its clean design that crackles with pure black brushed-aluminum power, but the ultimate esthetic team-up is when you add a Marantz power amplifier...
