Marantz Cinema 70S Reviews

Low profile, works well.

By SAM
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2023-08-13

This is a nice unit, no compatibility issues with devices. Unlike some HDMI switches and extractors, the unit works well with the up to date AppleTV4K. In my 18x14 room, It drives a couple bookshelf B+W speakers nicely and loud if desired. I use a powered HSU sub and a Yamaha center array connected to the pre-amp ports. Marantz/Denon removed a few convenience features from these new models. Random play and repeat are no longer USB options. The automatic configuration is quicker than my older system and works well for movie content, but I prefer unprocessed stereo for music. It does a great job with that. The unit has four programable speaker settings, and programmed my harmony remote to select the setting appropriate for the content. The manual is pretty good but lacking detail in some areas, like the music queue algorithm. Apparently not well documented in their tech data as I've been waiting two weeks for answers to a couple questions. Note that currently Marantz's service turn around is about 8 weeks.

The ultimate AV receiver for small rooms

The new Marantz Cinema 70S is a triumph of design and function. If you have a small media / TV room, it might be all you need if you just run a 2.1 setup (front left, front right and powered subwoofer). Pair it with premium bookshelf speakers and you have a system that can handle music and movies wonderfully. The A-B amplification is warm and detailed, suitable for music. It has 3 4K HDMI inputs and 3 8K HDMI inputs, for some extra future-proofing. And it is luxurious box. Marantz has fully embraced being a luxury brand, and this product shows it. It's a solid unit. Could last one 20 years. It's seriously good.
