I dont have any experience with the Marantz but have been a Sonos user for almost 10 years! The Sonos interface makes it incredibly easy to access my library and thus enjoy my music. Thats the one thing I would really check out with the Marantz. As for sound quality, I am not sure how good you can get with Surius and iPod (I assume compressed) music anyway so I think the Sonos is fine. You could use the digital out of the Sonos to an external DAC to get better sound.
Marantz na7004 or Sonos
Hi all,
I have Marantz amp (pm5004) and cd player (cd5004) and would like to have the capacity of playing Sirius radio as well as music on my iPod. I am thinking of either adding the Marantz na7004 network player or a Sonos device. Does anyone have experience with either one. Important criteria are ease of use (although the range of things I plan to do is really just Sirius and iPod) and sound quality. Any thoughts? Thanks, M.
