Personally I always recommend my friends Marantz amp as I think it give very high value for money. While for budget stereo amp, IMO, there are no competitions to Marantz. Today, I just got my 2nd unit of PM6005. Now I have 3 Marantz amps at home~ Marantz Owner List Mini === MCR503 - ktek AVR === SR4500 - ktek SR5006 - ktek SR5007 - supersound SR5008 - fx20 SR5010 - chanhin SR5010 - sakthis7 SR6003 - piscesguy SR6003 - cmw_kwl_6923 SR6004 - toffeeman SR6010 - Skylinestar SR6011 - Skylinestar SR7010 - spyderman88 AV8801 - WereWolf84 MM7055 - WereWolf84 Stereo Amp ======= PM11s2 - limsze PM KI Pearl Lite - limsze PM8005 - bad2928 bryanyz PM8005 - chanhin PM6005 - barjoyai PM6005 - chanhin (2 units  ) PM6005 - Topet PM6005 - jeremy_yee PM7001 - ktek PM7003 - drkodiang PM66SE KI - keithwwk Player ==== SA8005 - keithwwk CD6006 - SonGoku2 P CD6005 - jeremy_yee CD6004 - barjoyai SA8003 - cmw_kwl_6923 CD6000KI - keithwwk CD17mk3 - keithwwk Streamer ====== NA11S1 - keithwwk NA8005 - chanhin NA6005 - Others ==== mcr-611 - ktek mcr-610 - ktek mcr-510 - ktek HD-DAC1 - limsze This post has been edited by chanhin: Oct 27 2022, 12:14 AM Attached thumbnail(s)

Welcome to the club~ QUOTE(cba5566 @ Dec 8 2014, 10:59 PM) Why bought 2 PM6005 int amp ? Well, I love the PM6005 so much. Simple with built in DAC, less one equipment mean less one power plug and less messy interconnect cables. To show how much I love it, I bought another one....

I bought a unit of SR5008 to test my speaker. It sounds acceptable. However, when pair it with a poweramp it is a completely different story.
I compare with my Emotiva UMC-1 with the same power amp, I personally reckon the later has wider soundstage and clearer when compared to my SR5008.
However, technically Marantz has more functionalities to play with.

Though the look of it is a bit boring, the Marantz AVR is really a bang for buck if compared to other brand at the same range.

But too bad local distributor and seller purposely mark up unreasonable margins due to greed. In HK, Singapore etc, it is only about RM3.5k (as Malaysia ringgit dropping), but local shops want to sell more than RM5k. Something like Rm5.5k. They are practising UXXX style. Suka you beli, tak suka go away. IMO, I will never support these greedy business culture and will insist to say no. This post has been edited by chanhin: Dec 11 2014, 11:33 PM
