Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Reasonable receiver, probably not worth the price
This is my first Marantz product, though have owned several other mid-high level receivers in the past 4 years. When setting up, there is definitely quality put into the construction of the product, and the basic functions (such as HDMI switching, upscaling, sound reproduction) really are excellent. No DSP. Useful on screen display, but not the modern GUI one would expect from an upper-end company. The automatic adjustment of speaker levels leaves plenty to be desired. There was much tinkering after initial setup, particularly with the center channel which was way too loud. The remote app, and its ability to streamline the usage of the receiver, is horrendous. There are so many options to thinker with on modern receivers, and a properly done iPhone app lets this be a pleasure rather than a chore. In fact, the new Marantz app does not even support this model, and the layout of the older app is terrible. There are lots of little improvements that could be made, but the overall gist is that the sound reproduction is excellent after proper manual adjustments. However, the lack of polish on the user experience is a bit frustrating (iPhone app, GUI, etc). I would cautiously recommend this product to a friend, depending on their needs and expectations.

very good overall
I upgraded my AV receiver to this Marantz and I could not be happier. Sounds excellent, has all the goodies I need and I am sure this will last me about 10 years. For the price I highly recommend this.

Marantz has another winner.
I have owned Marantz products since the 1970's, and I have never gotten a poor example. Good quality, excellent tonal attributes, power handling, great packaging. I really like the bluetooth capabilities and use it daily with my cell phone music collection. This receiver is network capable and can be used as a hub for your gaming stations, TV, DVD, cable, wireless, etc. The plug and play capabilities are pretty good, it helps if you are somewhat tech savvy. Audio setup with the microphone works well, and if you use your HDMI connection with your Smart TV you even have screens of information and selections for custom-tailoring your listening experience. An excellent product, I highly recommend it.
