Review on 🎶 Marantz NR1200 Black AV Receiver: The Ultimate Stereo Experience by Adam Pietras ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great quality, happy with it one hundred percent!

Before that, I had a Yamaha-HTR2866 AVR with 5 bands. The difference is striking even with the Yamaha NS-333 is striking: A LOT of air in the highs, much denser mids and lows (as far as 333 allowed). Then I bought additional Focal Chora 826 floorstanding speakers. The picture has changed dramatically, but it’s already hard to say what the receiver’s contribution is, since I haven’t listened to others. So far very happy with the purchase. There is enough volume reserve - more than 70 out of 98 becomes very loud - I feel sorry for the neighbors (I never felt sorry for them with the previous one).

Pros
  • + spectacular appearance - designers were able to move away from the classic box + quality of materials gives the impression of an expensive thing + the capabilities of a modern receiver - I connected a PC and a laptop to switch between them with one button with output to a 4k monitor, I used it for a month as a network streamer with spotify - super convenient, works flawlessly + the sound quality is difficult to describe, so I will describe in more detail in the comments + perfect wi-fi connection quality
Cons
  • AirPlay with Apple TV wasn't able to set up right away until I tried more.
