Marantz reliability?


Im looking to replace my high end pre-amp with a receiver. My Proceed AVP pre-amp shot craps a month ago and its about 8 yrs old with no HDMI capabilities. Im looking to a mid level priced A/V reciever and have decided on the Sr6004. I found one review on amazon and the user says he has had 4 catastrophic failures and had 4 replacements units.

I know this doesn't tell the whole story and he may be running too low impedance speakers or some other issue, but I inferred that he seems to be knowledgeable in Hi-Fi. Has anyone had similar experiences with the sr6004? Its a new updated model from the sr6003, which I couldn't find any similar problems reported. Is there a design flaw with the new unit that I should rethink my decision? KennyT responded to an earlier post of mine saying he has this model. Kenny, did you have any issues with yours or hear of any other examples of problems with this piece?

Holy Dyna 120 , Batman!!! I haven't heard of 4 of ANYTHING failing since the 60's. I suspect that he MAY have a fault elsewhere in his system causing this. That said , anything is possible.
I purchased an high definition projector. I had a problem with my first projector and had difficulty with its reliability. They kept returning it to me without being fixed. After 8 months of complaining they finally replaced it with another unit. I have not had a problem since then. They did make good but were not very helpful through the process.
Although I have never owned a Marantz Receiver I have owned a few DVD-Universal players and a tuner and had no problems what so ever with them. I have used and still use their universal remotes and love them.I found Marantz to have excellent service in their tech support and have had many freinds that have used Marantz and never heard a complaint.
