Marantz name is solid.. good value for their lower end AV receiver.
Not sure I can balance speakers.. ie.. alter volume level for each speaker . So far, cannot find way to do it.0 out of 0 found this review helpful.

Good low profile option4

I replaced a more powerful, larger Onkyo receiver with this unit. I was a little concerned the lower power of this unit, 50 watts per channel, might be a problem. That has not been an issue. The sound easily fills the room for both movie and audio playback. I have it in a 5.1 setup with full range Polk towers for the main speakers. No problems providing good sound out of these in stereo or surround. It may not be able to deliver ear damaging sound levels for stereo cd listening, but it can take it up to a nice loud, accurate, enjoyable level. Movie volume is very good and the surround effect seems more pronounced with this receiver than my old one. Also, a good selection of surround effect choices for non-surround material. I like Neo-6 the best for cd and mp3 input
6 hdmi inputs is more than enough for me, as is the 5 speaker surround output. Had 7.1 before and never found a need to use the 6th or 7th speaker. 5 speakers more than fill the room and that's pretty much the standard soundtrack anyway. 3D pass through works flawlessly and was the main reason I needed a new receiver.
The front display is good; providing information on the input selected and the source audio type.
It's a very attractive unit and I like the low profile look as it doesn't overpower the other devices hooked up to it.1 out of 1 found this review helpful.

Perfect for small room home theater5

I use a Marantz AV7005 for my main home theater and purchased the Marantz Slimline NR1403 for use in a bedroom. The Slimline has pared downed features compared to the AV7005. Set up was easy and operating multiple sources is a breeze with the remote control.
I paired the Slimline with average in-wall speakers (front 6" woofer 2" tweeter, rear ceiling 6" woofer 2" tweeter, and 8" subwoofer) and Klipsch center speaker. The rear speakers are a bit overpowering at times, considering I used the microphone automatic set up. I do not notice this on my AV7005. Otherwise the sound quality is great. For a smaller theater setup it provides ample power, good sound quality, and ease of use.
I assume the system would generate higher sound quality and power if paired with larger speakers. The microphone system determined the speakers were all small. When I had the Klipsch on the AV7005, it classified it as a large speaker with the rest of the speakers. I believe the size of the in-wall speakers set the entire system at small.1 out of 1 found this review helpful.

I'm no audiophile, but I do appreciate a good sounding surround setup. My old Harmon/Kardon finally bit the dust, so I wanted something relatively decent without spending a ton. Marantz has a great reputation and I liked the simplistic appearance, so I purchased it. Setup was easy and the Audyssey calibration worked like a charm. I'm very impressed with the sound quality and power. You don't have to waste time trying to figure out all of the different setting. Just plug things in and select your input. Plus, the unit is tiny compared to most others. I highly recommend this receiver. In fact, I'm considering buying a second one to replace my Onkyo.3 out of 3 found this review helpful.

I knew the brand, but never had bought anything from them. the geek squad helped me make my decision. I have 5.1 surround so didn't go with the more expensive models.
Setup is so easy with great wizard that helps you setup the speakers and subwoofer..
I love that there are different settings for movie/gaming/music.3 out of 3 found this review helpful.

Excelent equipment4

The equipment is very good, slim, easy to install with an on screen step by step setup. I use it with an Yamaha NS-SP1800BL 5.1 speaker system which was really cheap. The overall sound quality is excelent. I just miss a composite RGB for the Wii console. I had to connect it to the TV and use the TV digital optical port to send the Wii Audio back to the receiver. I also connected a simple Samsung Blue Ray to it and it all works very well. It is worth the purchase.2 out of 4 found this review helpful.
