WHAT'S UP WITH MARANTZ? @nonoise The political post my posting referred to appeared just prior to mine and was removed by A'gon. | |
WHAT'S UP WITH MARANTZ? ugh. For the love of God, let's keep A'Gon politics free! There are plenty other places to express your political leanings. | |
Audioquest colorado sound to bright I started out with the Columbias. The sound was too diffuse with a weaker bass response. The depth was there but not the punch that you expect from a good kick drum for example. I traded out the Columbias for Colorados and had a more focused sou... | |
WORST Experience Ever in Dealing With Woodbridge Stereo NJ +1 @jafant Totally agree that we should recognize and celebrate those dealers/manufacturers who go out of their way to satisfy the needs of their customers, providing a positive buying experience. | |
WORST Experience Ever in Dealing With Woodbridge Stereo NJ OP Question... What does this statement mean from your original post?"

WHAT'S UP WITH MARANTZ? @donjr If you read above, Audio Advisor DOES have the SA10 in Champagne Gold. | |

Decided to change my cd player, suggestions please? For a total of about $3700 you can purchase a Marantz SA8005. You send it to Dan Wright at Modwright for the SIgnature Truth modifications and you will be listening to a true reference player for many thousands less than a comparable stock player... | |
Idiot trying to upgrade his system - likes the tube sound Based on Marantz's past reference products, the SA-10 sounds like a good bet for fantastic digital. Unless you listen at very loud levels or have an unusually large listening space, your 75 watt/ch. amp should be fine. With the warmish Marantz h... | |
