Marantz SR8002 A/V Receiver

By Steve Guttenberg (avguide.com)Read the full review

Though priced at a comparatively modest $2000, the THX Select2- certified SR8002 tops Marantz's current A/V receiver lineup. We remember when flagship receivers all went for thousands of dollars more and, sad to say, none of the megabuck models of ...

The Marantz SR8002 has it all: style, performance, and user-friendly ergonomics. We especially appreciated that last one; thanks to intuitive menus and controls, the owner's manual remained closed for most of our tests.

UltimateAVmag.com: Marantz SR8002 A/V Receiver

By Fred Manteghian (ultimateavmag.com)Read the full review

Powerful, musical amplification, Easy to use with a great remote, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding, Two HDMI outputs for dual-display setups

No onscreen volume/source/surround mode display via HDMI or component

Had this for 2 months and it is better than any other receiver I have owned. Best sound quality compared to an older Yamaha and recent Denon 3808. Music has never sounded better in my home. This receiver seems to have made my speakers disappear and let my...

Marantz SR8002

I have had my Marantz SR8002 for about 12 months now. I orginally purchased this to upgrade to current codecs (Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD MA) and HDMI connectivity. I was changing from my long time Rotel equipment, so I wasn't sure if I'd be happy. To make a...
