marantz 9600

hey,duane
balt. / wash. area.. 3k.
thks.

Hello again, You might have a good dealer close to you. What city are you near and what is your budget?

hello,duane
sorry for delayed response , u mentioned being a dealer.. if not panamax,will u sell me line conditioner that will protect & not comprimise sound stage..

Line conditioners can hurt the sound by starving equipment of either the amount of power needed or the speed in which the power is needed. (most noticable on amps) I have always noticed Panamax shrinking the sound stage and making bass sound mechanical instead od free flowing and round.

hi, again
how can ac conditioner harm sound.ia'm a neophite audiophile & have spent lot's on this sys. w/ hopes of creating JAW DROPPING sound stsge. i truly appreciate your input and welcome your suggestions, panamax will get a call mon. a.m. regarding protection plan / lightning strikes e.t.c. thks gary

Hello, Sounds good. That Projector is great. I would stay away from Panamax. They hurt the sound and they don't pay anything if you get hit by lightning. The Audio store I work at turned in 8 claims for customers and they didn't pay any of them.
I would look at a few lesser known conditioner companies like Transparent, Light Speed, Tice, or a Furmann.

Thanks,
Duane

Hello, I am a Marantz dealer and I also sell Elite, Integra, Sony ES, B & K, and Rotel in receivers and my only opinion we share with all our customers is that no one should buy a receiver in that price range when you can spend a little more to get good seperates. The onlo exception would be average seperates or if there is a strong space limitation.
