JJkizak Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Are there really any sonic performance differences between Denon & Marantz recievers now that Denon bought Marantz? JJK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaddeus Smith Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Denon and Marantz merged back in 2002, so there should be ample gear from which to sample. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaddeus Smith Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 My purely anecdotal observation is that they're like GMC is to Chevrolet, etc. Same underlying chassis, just upgraded bits to give Marantz that premium feel to go along with the name recognition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So....Marantz is GMC? 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
