I tested both Marantz SR5012 and SR5013. This short comparison of Marantz SR5012 vs Marantz SR5013 should help you choose these two models.
Both models support the 4K video standard at 60 Hz. The colors are vivid since they support HDR, HLG and BT.2020 technologies. These models feature the HDAM boards to provide more detailed, dynamic sound. They also support Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. The audio enhancement technologies include the Audyssey technology. Both models are great in terms of performance – you can enjoy the high-quality video without experiencing any motion blur due to the 60 Hz support. They support the Alexa voice control technology. However, some customers claim that inputs switching takes some time (you see the black screen only) on Marantz SR5012.
These receivers support the wireless connection via Bluetooth, HEOS or AirPlay 2. The AVR remote application is available from the Apple store, Google Play and the Amazon Appstore. Both models have 8 in and 2 out HDMI ports, as well as a USB and a Phones port. Customers also claim that all ports are durable. The Audyssey system is a powerful audio tweaking tool that has a separate application where you can tweak everything. Marantz SR5013 gets also the Advanced UI making tweaking easier. The Audyssey also tweaks speakers automatically. They also support several zones.
If we compare Marantz SR5012 vs SR5013 in terms of design we will not see any differences. They have a small round-shaped LCD display. They have two large knobs on both sides. They have many buttons to choose the input, a USB and HDMI port. The remote controller looks modern. It is ergonomic, it has all the buttons you may need. Both models are almost identical in terms of dimensions and weight – 13.6 (Marantz SR5013 is 13.7) x17.3x6.3 inches. The weight is 22.1 pounds.
