The phono section is good as is the Marantz sound. What I don't like is trying to use it without it controlling the TV. I get the ARC thing, but sometimes I want to use the TV speakers alone.

I am an audiophile. I was in between the Yamaha rn-800 and the S70 stereo. I have a pair of R3 Kef book shelves and a SVS-1000sb. Overall chose the Marantz. App works well and it is easy to set up. Incredible sound great power. Love the A/B option. My Record player sounds great through this!

Picked up this reciever and NR1200 to test side by side. Feel like this is likely a review a lot of people are looking forward to as there is very little out at the moment on this device. Excellent build quality and sounds as good as it looks especially with music. If you can force video to stream in stereo or "original" sound is great too. In the event you're watching a movie or show that is mixed for 5.1 or greater the device can sound hallow as there are not DTS or ATMOS mix options. HEOS / Apple Air Play / IOS Marantz remote app all work without any fuss. Sound is everything you would expect from Marantz. Running a pair of Klipsch 8000F II's and a REL T5X via high level connection. I'll be honest it was really difficult for me to make out significant difference between sound quality of this device vs the NR1200. The setup GUI was significantlly more well thought out and visually better on the 70s. The remote is miles ahead. The 70s is a better looking center piece and knobs have a thick "resistance" to them when they turn and don't feel cheap. My main input method is streaming to the device via Google's music services / Tidal / Phono / Optical to TV. The 70s ultimately sold me based on look and future proofing. The device really should be about 200.00 dollars cheaper though as the price tag is the biggest hurdle to get over. Would love to get a well though out review from a super user of this 70s that tested the 8k upscaling etc... I just don't have a use for it at this time. Would also really like to test this vs the cinema in the event that I give up on being a 2.1 enthusiast one day and would prefer 5.1 upgrade path.
