    I'm loving how the Marantz Cinema 50 sounds, when I watch the same movies I watched before I'm hearing more detailed sounds I've never heard before. The surround sound is pretty amazing. When Dirac Live comes out in a few months I can only imagine how much better it will sound.

    Amazing receiver! Sound is amazing. You can hear the difference and woke up my sub. My old receiver was only 5 years old. Now sounds like a movie theater at half volume. Only regret was not going to the module above to add move speakers in the future.

    This is amazing for the 7.2 Dolby Atmos setup. Sound is amazing partly because of the speakers I got but even more so that this unit have a lot of settings, configurations and drives the speakers to get the sound you want. GREAT purchase!

    I love this receiver compared to few others I have tried in the past. Little expensive compared to them but worthy if you want quality sound. Eventually, you don't need an amplifier for good quality speakers.

    I am loving this receiver, I upgraded from my old marantz receiver that was a 7.2 and our movie experience got an upgrade with the 9.4. I am running it as a 9.2 but I am looking into adding the additional 2 subs.

    Marantz Cinema 50 Works

    It works well as a replacement for a Marantz 730. I hope it keeps working. The front panel is aesthetically pleasing, but I liked the blue front light on the 730. Only con is that this one costs $100 more.

    The Marantz is an awesome amplifier I had one of the best Yamahas that went out. I cannot believe the 3 dimensional sound coming from the Marantz. Wish I would have bought one 40 years ago!!!

    This was a suprise gift as an upgrade for an Onkyo of similar class that was about 8 years old. This unit took some time to setup and update, but once all said and done the results were great.
