Pros & Cons

Pioneer Elite A-20

VS

Pros

    • The output sound is rich, crisp and deep – it is not distorted and you get no hum or distortion at high volume.
    • It does not become hot due to well-designed heat sinks.
    • The remote controller is super ergonomic and it allows you to do anything you want.

Cons

    • Some units are not reliable – some of them may fail after 2-4 months of exploitation.

Marantz M-CR611

VS

Pros

    • It is really universal, you get to have a CD input together with the general AV receiver features, great for the whole family.
    • It has really cool lines in the front, you can change the color.
    • Really easy to set up and to align with your speakers and other devices.

Cons

    • I have noticed an internet radio issue, it was freezing.
