Marantz PM-14S1SE black

The launch of new Marantz Premium devices is always an occasion for audiophiles to rejoice. And the new 14 Series Special Edition takes you to new levels of audio pleasure. This edition has been tuned and optimized with love and passion to play high-resolution files, marking the beginning of a new era in musical passion. Available in black or champagne colors, the new 14 Series Special Edition represents the quintessence of quality - it is, quite simply, a masterpiece.

It incorporates all the features one would expect from an amplifier of this level, including exceptionally high-quality components such as an oversized toroidal transformer and subsystems that structure its design. A 5mm aluminum reinforcement and a particularly rigid chassis reduce vibrations to a minimum to ensure the purest processing of audio signals.

In addition, it includes custom and enhanced elements such as Marantz’s exclusive HDAM audio modules and implements a much more efficient electrical signal path. All of this to elevate audio quality to a sublime level. The PM-14S1 Special Edition comes with a new remote control featuring an elegant black anodized aluminum housing that can also control the SA-14S1 SACD player. Finally, the specific Marantz speaker terminals, made of solid copper, give it a touch of elegance and an increased capacity for powerful signal transmission. Luxury pushed to the extreme.
