Any thoughts on the new Marantz HT separates?


Has anyone experienced the marantz AV 8003 prepro. To me it looks sweet. Has all the bells and whistles. I wonder how it stacks up to other "high end components"? Their new BD8002 blue ray player looks pretty sweet as well.

Yeah I've been salivating at both pieces. I've just bought a new pre/pro and blu ray player two months ago and already I'm looking to upgrade to the Marantz pieces.

I've been reading the owners manuals of their new blu ray player and of the new denon hi end player. Amazingly their owners manual is almost identical nearly word for word... Do electronics mfgs use the same companies to make their manuals or do you think that the Denon and Marantz models are made by the same manufacturer? Their specs are nearly identical also.

Ericjcabrera you are correct....I just checked it out on the web. What an eye-opener.

Denon and Marantz merged in 2002.

All of the companies below belong to D&M holdings.
