[avtar2008]

Thanks for the reply, even Denon x2700h also pre outs, is there any points to be consider?

when did 2700 got all channel preout? I cant see mentioned it anywhere on official or review websites

does the timbre of the Kef Q150 LCR match with the Klipsch R14?

Not really.. I can live with it for now.

The lowest model of Denon with preouts starts from the 3x00 series and with Marantz, it starts with 50xx series.

Marantz NR series have preout for front LR

Hope u aware that Marantz SR5015 preout is completely different compared to Denon X2700H Zone 2 preout.

I bought Marantz 5015 just a few weeks back but yet to set up.

Not just the front L & R but the Marantz 50xx series has preout for all the 7.1 channels.

Only one year, SR5006 came with only front preouts and not 7.1, don't know why.

But my old Marantz Sr5008 had seven channel preouts.

What do you mean? Please explain? As far as I understood, both have zone 2

That discussion is about Pre out on quoted models.

Zone 2 discussion is altogether different topic.Yes ,both model has Zone 2

I am using Denon AV receivers. Denon AVR-3805 (Made In Japan) used last 15 years, 2 years ago replace with Denon ARV-X1600H (Made In Vietnam). Till date I don't have any issues with those receivers working very well.
I don't have experience with AV receivers Made In China?
Marantaz AVR made from?

Marantaz AVR made from?

Older one in China. Newer series Vietnam .Only 8 series in Japan.

 

[HIEND-Raja]

Now the days many electronic items made from Vietnam, I was in Vietnam 18 years. Quality compare China, my opinion Vietnam is better. I am using AVR quit long time never have issue, very important point for AVR good ventilation. I never turn on my AVR without AC.

Even thought the price difference is few thoudands , flexablity provided by main pre-out can't be over looked. I have added power amplifier MM7025 to my Marantz NR1608 and both the music listening as well as movies watching experience improves to next level. Pre-out keep us an easy upgrade path for amplification section of system chain. It is similar to upgradation of avr dac by connecting external DAC through analog inputs . Recently I have upgraded AVR dac to external Schiit modi 3 DAC and the upgradation is substantial. Now music is more subtle and articulated with better controlled low end. Now with the same source, speakers and avr , I am able to listen more music from same albums. Micro details are audioble which were earlier difficult to listen. External dac and Power amplifier certainly improves sound quality of avrs .

Sorry for slight off topic.
Can you specify the chain of external dac and power amp.
I am using Marantz SR6008. For music I am using it’s built in airplay streaming. I want to know what are the possible upgrade path with this AVR.
Will there be a substantial upgrade if I add a dac and streamer like IFI zen stream.
What would be the best price of mm7025 now?
