Do Marantz receivers sound good?

Do Marantz receivers sound good?

All Marantz receivers are pretty great, even the smallest. I think the models that came out together in 1976 (?) which included the 2250B, 2275 and 2325 is a hard group to beat for well rounded sound, and build quality.

Why does my Marantz sr5005 have no sound?

There is a hidden speaker cutoff switch inside the headphone jack; run in PURE DIRECT mode; consider a RESET. A reset is both a test and a try of a fix. As it implies, a reset would force the unit to revert back to factory defaults removing glitches and config errors but would include memories, presets and user preferences.

Is there a problem with my Marantz a / V receiver?

My Marantz SR5005 A/V Receiver: No sound output. This problem arose suddenly while watching TV over DirecTV. No sound regardless of what device I select (DVR, Blue Ray Player, etc.) but the receiver switches everything correctly and the video section works fine.

What does OSD mean on Marantz sr5012 speaker?

When sound cut out the setup osd popped up on the speaker setup screen. Did some testing… put my hand on the 5012, warm but not hot at all by any means… nothing out of the ordinary, was not in protection.

Is the Yamaha AVR better than the Marantz?

If all the hearsay are true, Yamaha AVRs may be more reliable and according to M Code, they have HDMI certification so potentially fewer hand shaking issues. I will look into the yamaha, I do still like my old one and it’s back to active duty since the marantz pooped the bed.
