From the entry level 3001 to the fully loaded SR9600 marantz has offered a great value. With an entry cost under $400 the bar has been raised for price and performance. As one goes higher in the marantz line capabilities like the ability to do 1080P HDMI or second zone output become available. Each model higher granting not only more powerful amplifiers, but also more features.

The DV4001, DV6600, DV7600, and DV9600 are all single disc DVD players in the marantz line. The model VC6001 is a 5 disc DVD changer allowing many hours of music or movies to played without changing discs. The basic models each have 1080i scaled video output and the more advanced VC6001 and 9600 each have 1080p capability.

The marantz DLP projectors are great all around performers. At our showroom a VP11S1 plays daily showing clients exactly what a good projector should do: play movies but not dominate the room with its presence. The internal fan is so quiet you could almost forget the projector is even there in the room, and the size is many times less than original CRT front projectors. Video is bright and clear on all these projectors and seeing is believing if you get a chance to come in.

These are the basics of the marantz lineup. Here we have classics like the SR4021 a stereo receiver with phono input, CC4001 a 5 disc carousel CD player, and SA8001 Super Audio CD player. Reliable and affordable each of the marantz hifi models will give years of enjoyment.
