Marantz PM5005 black

The legendary Marantz manufacturing quality at an entry-level price - that’s what this analog stereo integrated amplifier offers, with a listening quality that upholds the brand’s standards. Namely, a warm lower midrange that evolves into a clear midrange, culminating in a particularly fine and silky high end, as always with Marantz!

The HCS team particularly appreciated:

The remarkable build quality at this price point, as well as the listening quality that earned this Marantz stereo hi-fi integrated amplifier a Diapason d’Or award.

Usage tips from the HCS team:

Prioritize pairing with speakers whose current demand matches the capabilities of the PM 5005: ideally two-way bookshelf speakers with a comfortable or even high efficiency and a simple load.

Complementary products recommended by the HCS team:

We were particularly won over by the pairing with the Triangle bookshelf speakers! Then, given the intrinsic musical qualities of the product, you might consider completing the setup with a quality power cable, as well as for the speaker cables.
