General:
I had been a huge fan of Marantz and its user for more than 10 years and I used to own 7 series before( SR7012, SR7015 etc) and I never had a chance to own the Flagship Series i.e. 8 series, And recently I had upgraded my home theater to PreAmp and Power-amps and I initially purchased AV7706 and I was not satisfied 100% and I felt it lacked the umphff feel and the sound lacked power and it was very normal, Last week I planned to try this AV8805A and oh my god what a remarkable difference, The entire music now feels so powerful, satisfying and vast difference from AKM DAC's used in 7706 and the architecture used in 8805A (ESS Sabre 32bit DAC's) with 2 OP-AMPS for every 1 channel is so good and this HDAM architecture makes the sound feel so discrete providing the ultimate channel separation with crystal clear clarity. I highly recommend this PREAMP for all the Audiophile lovers and this is the only AMP within 6000 USD range and also having Balanced XLR inputs, and I also hooked up my newest Audio Streamer I purchased from ListenUp and the sound quality is Fantabulous , and mind blowing . I highly recommend to buy any Audio/Video gear from ListenUp, one of the best signature Hifi Dealers and shipment was neatly double boxed and safely delivered. 5/5 stars customer experience.
So, I've had preamps from Classe Audio, Audible Illusions, Denon AVRs, Yamaha Receivers, you name it. But this Marantz? It's my first time diving into Marantz territory, and I gotta say, I'm digging it. Right now, I've only got my front 3 channels hooked up along with my 4 height channels, so it's not the full shebang just yet. But hey, I'm working on it � aiming to get the rest of my speakers sorted in the next couple of months.
On the whole, I'm content with the unit. But, to be honest, it's not the most user-friendly. Figuring it out can be a bit of a puzzle, and it's more complex than I expected. I get it, there are simpler models out there, but this one has some key features I need. Maybe I'm showing my age, and all this tech stuff is a tad overwhelming at this point.
