Marantz Cinema Series 2 Receivers Pack Audiophile And Gaming Upgrades
Marantz has refreshed its home theater lineup with the introduction of the Cinema Series 2 AV receivers, promising enthusiast-grade audio processing plus the addition of gaming features for the broader audience. The new lineup consists of the flagship Cinema 50 Series 2 ($3,000), the mid-range Cinema 60 Series 2 ($2,000), the European-only Cinema 60 DAB Series 2 (€1,450), and the space-saving Cinema 70s Series 2 ($1,500).
Every model in the range shares a new 32-bit, eight-channel digital-to-analog converter (DAC). By processing audio conversion simultaneously across all channels, the new architecture tightens dynamic response, sharpens acoustic imaging, and significantly reduces timing jitter during complex multichannel playback.
Outside of handling the usual music and movies, Marantz is also targeting gamers who demand uncompromised AV throughput. HDMI 2.1 support comes standard (all models), now paired with native 1440p passthrough and AMD FreeSync support.
