Unregistered guest | Baldev Grewal - Thanks. Point noted. I think i should go for LCR600 instead of LCR60. My Rantz - whats is the price range of Marantz? I am planning to spend 1/2 to 1/3rd the price of my speakers. |

Unregistered guest | I looked into SR5500 and SR7500. I am leaning towards SR7500. I am from India and the price is ok with me (20% more than the $ price - thats ok). but the main problem is, I can't get a demo with Marantz and B&W. My main usage is HT (movies). Anyway, I like to know if there are any other delears in Bangalore, India for Matantz (and B&W). Contact details will be helpful. thanks |
Unregistered guest | How does Marantz SR7500 compare to NAD and Arcam receivers (of similar range)? |
Bronze Member Username: MystroPost Number: 19 Registered: Jan-05 | I have been running B&W 640's,800,and CD6s with Harmon Kardon gear from day one. I love the way B&W speakers sound powered by Harmon Kardon Amps. My current Harmon Kardon power amp is the Awesome AVR-7300. See my review down the page. I also checked out the Dennon 5803 and 5805 but found them to have a more flat dry sound. I thought they were over priced for what they were. Both Dennon were powerful amps but I didnt care for how they sound and they didnt have the audio or video flexability as the HK. |
