THE BRAND COLLECTION
Marantz audio electronics
Marantz has a long history in the control and amplification of music. Its electronics invite a conversation about how a system should work for the sources you own and the way you listen.
A history that began with a preamplifier
Saul Marantz developed the Audio Consolette at home in New York before establishing the Marantz Audio Company in 1953. Preamplifiers, power amplifiers and tuners became part of the brand’s early history.
That heritage now sits alongside electronics for music and home entertainment. When exploring the brand, separate the role of each component from its visual identity: source playback, volume control, amplification and surround processing are different jobs.
Plan around your sources and speakers
A two-channel music system and a multichannel viewing system call for different connections and capabilities. Make a list of the devices you use, the speakers you want to power and the room where everything will live. Include television connections and streaming preferences where relevant.
Features differ across product families and generations. Check the exact model’s inputs, outputs and setup requirements. Our services can help connect component decisions to an existing system or a broader listening-room plan.
