I normally buy Sony receivers, but loved Marantz features.

majorloser Moderator Apr 3, 2019 #304 Nice prize. I just got my new AV8805 pre/pro hooked up last weekend. If this receiver is anything like the pre/pro, it should make somebody VERY happy.

F flemingvalve Audiophyte Apr 3, 2019 #306 I currently enjoy a Yamaha as my receiver. I would love to try a Marantz though, as I've only ever read of the marvelous sonic qualities they possess.

S Splff3000 Audiophyte Apr 3, 2019 #309 Marantz, I think the "audio quality to price" ratio is superb.
H HootUSMC Audiophyte Apr 3, 2019 #312 I had a really nice Sansui growing up but a Marantz/Mirage set up is my dream. I have an first gen NR and would love to use the NR for analog listening and a newer model for home theater.
