i owned the marantz 11s2 and did not consider it smooth. i lent it to my friend whose system is different from mine and he thought that the marantz was edgy.
i understand that people have different systems, different ears, and different preferences, but i have never heard a marantz piece of equipment sounding smooth.
if the sony allegedly is more resolving, i suspect that it would not be to my taste.
