If you like the Marantz sound from the PM 6003,6006,6007...? You have to listen a old 1070 from the early 70,s (the one with only a blue led for the power not the one with power in letters) fully recapped with good Nichicon gold serie caps. I have one for more than 30 years now and i have rebuild/upgraded a lot of amplifier these last years. This 1070 is still the best for my opinion! Especially with Senheiser HD600 headphones,I never heard something better! ;)
Viejo ésto si es vida, que gran calidad uffff nada comparado con Sony, lg o jgbl, está 603 está en otro nivel, por cierto que buena canción puedo sentirme como si estuviera ahí adentro de la casa con buenos bajos, algun día me gustaría tener uno de esos, saludos brother excelente video
This song has sort of become the defacto speaker testing reference, so much so that the moment I put this song in my system, my neighbour freak thinks I’m auditioning a new set of speakers 🤨
I do love them speakers unfortunately not the space for them so had to go for the 607s2 silver anniversaries, but I do posess the marantz pm6007 which I love & the marantzcd6007usb with the rega planar 3. Loving it.
Run myself B&W 604S3 and home made current feedback amp (like this one ... but a little bit better) - results however must be similar, very smooth deep and fluid sound. Nice video BTW! Thx
Dang i have a pm6006 on some elac debut 2.0 b6.2 I didn’t realize i could push this large of speaker…….might have to look at those Emotiva towers after all……i know besides the dac chip being different the pm6007 here has 12,000 picofarad filter caps and mine only has 10,000 picofarad caps………but thats not gonna be as big of difference as say the NR1200 stereo receiver from Marantz only has 6,800 picofarad caps
Would recommend the Marantz PM6005 amp or Denon PMA800ne to go with Klipsch RP250F speakers. I am moving from a tube amp to SS. SS seems more practical.
sound great especially Mark Knofflers guitar thats my plan. Ive just bought 2nd hand 602 s2 and sub woofer for $200 looking to pair up with amp/av receiver any suggestions?
Ok, so I tested my B&W 603 S2's with the Marantz pm6007 and I sent the Marantz back. It is a nice sounding amp but the Denon PMA 800NE is better for the B&W 603 S2. It might be just my taste but I recommend that you try the Denon as well. I now swithced to the Denon PMA1600NE and it sounds amazing with the 603 S2. It is a more expensive amp but it's totally worth it. Some of the differencies are that for the same volume the Marantz volume button is at 11 o clock and on the Denon (both amps) the button will be at 9 o clock. But this is not so important - it is just how the gain of the amp is set. More important is that on the Denon amp the bass is more present. Not louder necessarily but it feels like it covers more of the instruments in a natural tone of bass and mid base. Also mid base is more muddy on the Marantz and the highs are more refined on the Denon. Especially on the PMA 1600NE. Also the PMA1600NE has a great separation of instruments significantly better than on the Marantz. You need to hear for yourself :)
Interesting comments on Denon vs Marantz. I've just bought the Denon pma 800ne and so far I like what I'm hearing but I'm hoping the sound will get with better with burn-in. I say this because although the sound is better in every respect than my old Marantz m-cr603, punch, dynamics, drive etc, one area where it falls short so far is in sweetness where the old Marantz wins. But I think this sweetness will come with time but of course it could be just a psycho-acoustic thing and my ears adjusting to the new sound lol!
True B&W calls for power you litteraly can punch into those devices. The more the better the sound. My 604S3 are rated 200W continous ... there is room with this amp - but you really need all that power? Check this amp headroom, I see power supply may be a bit small, output transistory used on this however can do more, much more. So I'd simply upgrade the PSU to tweak out a bit more of punch of it - maybe a shame doing that on such a nicely constructed amp for THAT price, no?
Totally disagree. The problem today is most of what I call newbies to hifi want bass & more bass to the extent its unnatural but they believe it to be natural. Bass needs control not booming. Some hi fi know it alls have never even been to a live concert in their life. The way the Marantz deals with its bass is spot on its musical & lifelike. Don't fall into the pitfall about bass think about its musicality, separation & fluidity. 50 years experience of buying, learning & listening.
Thx for this. Understanding that the PM6007 is incremental to the PM6006 (new DAC), do you (or anyone) know how they compare? Will power some Dali Oberon 5 speakers. I see you’ve demoed a PM8006 in the past - maybe the sound signature is roughly comparable (8006/6006)?
Yes ..the 6007 theyre using new dac so it will works better for this day speakers and future. believe or not, 6007 sound great and fast with some good bookshelf speaker out there. .. and Dali Oberon 5 speakers?? Denon 800 or 6007. but 8006 will rock it even better :D
NO WAY BRO, NO FARE BRO, THE TURNTABLE IS ON THE SCREEN BRO, JUST KIDDIN, THIS IS PURE ICE MY GUY, THE KIND OF SET-UP THAT I WOULD TELL A CHICK "IF YOUS TOUCH ANY OF IT I'LL BREAK BOTH YR ARMS"
How do the DAC's compare on the Marantz vs other integrated amps? I found it to be overly warm in the midrange. I've listened to a friend's set-up with the PM6007 and ELAC unifi 2.0 and the same song sounds more balanced on vinyl but overly warm with a bit of a "shouty" horn-like midrange when streaming lossless to the internal DAC.
its depend, you like it loud or no. lots of brand... bose and klipsch have some great speaker. the 6007 is not that powerful amp, i would suggest you find something small, like bookshelf speakers it will sound great. try B&W 606, 607 or 706 if you like highend sound.
Hi, nice setup..Have 2 questions. How big is your room...i have 20 square meters, and wondering if 603 s2 would be too big for my room?...and I have Pm 8005, guessing if the amp is good enough for bowers? Ty..best regards
What's the distance between the speakers? I would like to know, because of a possible setup I am working on to get. A brand new Marantz PM 6007 with a pair of almost brand new Klipsch Synergy F-30. And I live in a apartment =S. (And tell me as well the distance in the back). Another question: do you feel enough punch and bass for funk, rock n roll and hard blues (enough for a beginner)? Greetings from Brazil.
Hello . you can put the speaker anywhere you like. its still sound great. I've placed mine very close to the wall . btw the Marantz PM6007 its a smart choice.
@@Ibanezkanly What do you think? Pm8006 or Pm 6007 for my simple Synergy F30's? I would love if you advice me about that. And how the best to way to connect that speakers? Do I need a crossover for separated frequencies?
@@caioveb I'm used to be a fan of Klipsch but when i switch to B&W.. man ..to be honest i stuck with this. 603 and Marantz 8006. that is all i need. loved it. i can even karaoke with it lol. very nice sound. but if you used synergy f30 i think 6007 still the best entrance . i dont think you need a crossover for it. but if you like too.. why not :D
@@ciulabula1 Depends if you want floorstanders more than bookshelves for your room. Likely a side-grade to less IMO. Might need a proper amp too. S2's have more clarity and shine better. I have 607S2 and 606. The S2s are a far better gen IMO, their hype is real. They have improved crossovers and a few things, but it makes a big difference IMO.
@@therazmatazz732 Thanks. Tough choice. Yes, I want floorstanders to complete the look iny sitting room as well as I just want them. Going to pair them with new Denon AVR 1700.
@@ciulabula1 I would spend the money upgrading the amp to something better with that money, but that's just me. Just get a sub and stands and it's as good, but if it completes your room, then you already know what you want. I would go for a more dedicated music amp myself, depending on source.
Hi Ya zac, I'm in doubt which amp to get for my Dali Zensor 3 + Dali E12F Subwoofer, PM6007 or PM8006. I also own SA8005. Will PM6007 be enough for my speakers system or it's PM8006 way better?
Le Evo 4.4 hanno boisogno di molta potenza e di molta corrente per suonare bene , con un Marantz PM6007 non andrebbero bene perchè ha pochissima potenza e pochissima corrente , ci vorrebbe almeno un Musical Fidelity M6Si per smuoverle un pò
I disagree with the other comment to you. Fed by a toroidal power transformer, Shottky barrier diodes provide a high current supply. This means you get effortless power and punchy dynamics. Whether you’re into Classical, stadium rock, dance or movie soundtracks, the PM6007 easily delivers an immersive, room-filling sound. Reading all those statistics is why I purchased this amp & it certainly lives up to the hype.
@@ENGLISHISBEST Dici a me ? io ho un Marantz PM6007 e un PM7000N , preferisco il PM6007 con le Q Acoustic 3050i e sono molto soddisfatto , quindi il PM6007 ha abbastanza potenza ? io ne capisco poco.
The PM6007 should be used in small to mid-sized rooms. Of course your loud speaker's efficiency/power needs are a top priority. These manufactures design amps to price points, application ( room size, type of loudspeaker...etc) While a lot of people do it: It really doesn't make much sense to have a large pair of floorstanders in a 10' × 10' room. Or a narrow rectangular shaped room, with the speakers on the short wall. But often, people are limited in options for their system, so they make the best of it. The PM6007 has good current power, for it's modest numbers. So it should be used in smaller rooms. For larger, more wide open spaces: the PM8006 is the better option.
Ich würde unten die Platte ab Montieren und nur auf die spikes stellen auf die Spitzen, dann weden die Boxen perfekt entkoppelt, ein Teppich vor den Boxen wäre auch sinnvoll ein hochflor. Ich habe die selben Boxen und bei mir hat das Wunder geholfen.
You can't drive these Speakers with that amp,need at least 2 pairs of power output transistor per speakers!PM6007 can drive only bookshelf speakers with 2 drivers.
@@Ibanezkanly marantz pm6007 and also pm7000n. Both with music in usb stick. I ended buying the new polk signature elite 55. Love that tweeter, much more natural imo.
@@Ibanezkanly Sure, and that is why i bought the 6007, so anybody at home can adjust sound to their taste, but prefer polk for the much cheaper price. Bowers are incredible when adjusted correctly, but i really do not like aluminium twitters and also they more expensive.
Dear Sir, The Marantz is a great amplifier. One of the best in the market regardless the price. Unfortunately, these are extremely poor speakers with utterly annoying midrange. You should avoid speakers with metal dome tweeter and poor kevlar midrange diaphragms.
Именитая фирма, но в этой акустике нет ничего особенного, как и в любой столбообразной узкомордой акустике. Физика. Чем уже и длиннее корпус - тем больше стоячих волн внутри корпуса. Дурацкий подход в жертву качеста звучания и в пользу компактности
