Nice vid bro. I have the 40n and I always thought that the amplifier section was identical between 40n and 50. The 40n has 2 DAC modes, I don't know about the cd50. Mode 1 has a more warm sound to it and and mode 2 can be described as.. cleaner/clearer highs maybe, less roll-off. I wonder what the setting was. Maybe you picked up that difference too. Personally I like Mode 1 as it smoothes the highs of the RF-7 mk1s nicely. In case anyone's wondering: The remote input-output is a handy Marantz (only?) feature that allows passthrough and daisy chaining remote signals when you place the device out of sight or in a closed cabinet. Also: fixed volume outputs -> integrated amp or preamp. Variable volume outputs -> power amp which do not have their own volume control.
@@homecinemaking397 Sir, if you are listening to a music CD and you pause it with volume -10, on Marantz amplifiers it is a very high volume range, you can hear a bit of electrical noise, does that happen to you? And on the phono source it is much louder...
the marantz model 50., I have the impression that it is a bad electrical network, I don't know if there is a device that can solve this, I imagine that it doesn't happen to you, that when you turn up the volume without music this noise is heard, do you think it could eventually be a malfunction in the amplifier,? it has only been used for a month, anyway thank you very much for your answers, you are the best, greetings,
