Pros & Cons

Marantz SR6011

VS

Pros

    • I am hooked on its porthole display. You see input and volume on it, but the surrounding ring doesn’t light up.
    • The Zone 2 is outstanding because it works with Comcast, Xfinity, TV, and Dish. It is possible turned on simultaneously 2 TVs. While checking, I was listening to music in one room and the TV was working in another one.
    • I am used to controlling receivers via my gadgets, so I instantly downloaded the app on my smartphone. The grayish menu is stylish and with slidi

Cons

    • I didn’t set Dolby Atmos on HDMI out 1, because the second one was in use, even speakers were not hooked up to it.
    • I didn’t notice right away that it gets hot fast, but it’s possible to install cooling fans.
