Review on 🎧 Marantz SR5015 - 7.2 Channel 8K Ultra HD AV Receiver (2020 Model) with Dolby Virtual Height Elevation, Built-in HEOS, Amazon Alexa Compatibility, Bluetooth Wireless Streaming & Home Automation by Quinton King

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Sounds great but is disappointed with 4K/8K

Bought this to replace a 2007 Pioneer Elite which sounded good but my XBox Series X (a 4K games console that comes with 4K/8K can handle) wanted to run video) via the HDMI input and connect one to my new 8k Samsung HDTV. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be possible to play UHD with XBox (via an app, videos bought online or UHD Blu-ray). To get the maximum resolution I need to connect my XBox to an HDTV and use an arch. HDMI back to Marantz for sound. I keep checking if Marantz has an update to fix the problem but nothing. And the more I read online, there may never be an update that could fix this problem. Which makes me feel like it was a huge waste of money. For reference, I am using any 4K certified HDMI 2.1 cable.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Was packaged very badly, not sure if it works, no power cable.
