”A practical, well-furnished just-add-speakers streaming system that impresses with its entertaining performance.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ – 5 Star review. Tested at £999.
A top quality amp that happens to be a first-rate streamer, too At the heart of the PM7000N is a top quality amplifier that’s powerful enough for larger rooms but detailed enough for all music lovers. This is matched by a versatile network streamer that covers a huge range of options. These include Bluetooth, wi-fi, AirPlay 2, Internet radio, HEOS, Spotify Connect, Tidal, Deezer plus much more. You can even operate the amp with voice control – via Alexa, Google and Siri.
Putting quality sound first Despite all its features, the PM7000N amplifier uses quality components for a graceful sound. This high-end Marantz amp uses a discrete current feedback design with Marantz's own HDAM SA3 and SA2 amplifier modules. Usually reserved for much more expensive models, these op-amps use surface-mount metal-film resistors for greater temperature stability. The upshot is a cleaner, less distorted sound, whatever the volume.
Hi-Res music compatible The quality sound continues with the choice of internal DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor). Using the highly rated Asahi-kasei AK4490EQ chipset, the PM7000N is able to stream Hi-Res 192kHz/24 bit signals through all its digital inputs. Connect via the USB and the PM7000N also decodes DSD files up to 5.6MHz.
Room-filling power Using a large toroidal power transformer and high value output capacitors, the Marantz PM7000N produces an effortless 60 watts per channel. This is ample for larger rooms and is ideal for getting the best from even the most inefficient speakers. If you feel your current system isn’t making the most of your speakers, then try this and hear just what they’re capable of.
Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, DLNA and built-in wi-fi for the complete networking experience With both Bluetooth and AirPlay 2 connectivity, it's easy to connect all your smartphones, tablets and compatible lap/desktops and stream music wirelessly. The PM7000N also comes with wi-fi, Internet radio and DLNA. Simply connect to your home network via Ethernet or wi-fi and access thousands of Internet radio sites via vTuner as well as subscription services such as Spotify Connect (Premium Spotify account required), Tidal, Deezer and Amazon Prime Music. DLNA compatibility lets you stream from other sources such as your laptop or NAS drive.
Voice control via Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri devices For the latest in smart home tech, Marantz have made the PM7000N compatible with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri devices. Simply download the HEOS Home Entertainment Skill app and then just ask Alexa or the Google Assistant to perform basic functions. Using the Apple Home App, Siri voice control from your Apple iOS device brings added functionality over AirPlay 2 – including grouping devices.
HEOS built-in - for the finest multi-room audio HEOS multi-room music systems connect together by dual-band Wi-Fi, making them easy to set up with your existing home network. Up to 32 HEOS units can be set up at one time, ensuring even the largest of homes are covered for multi-room music. With HEOS already built-in, the PM7000N is ready to go as a single 'zone' without any further adaptors.
Control it all with the HEOS app Once you've set up your HEOS speaker system, you can stream music effortlessly via the dedicated HEOS app. Available for Apple iOS, Android and Amazon Kindle, the app not only lets you stream your stored music but also Internet radio services and popular streaming services such as Spotify, Tidal, Napster and Deezer.
Connect it all – including a turntable For wide-ranging compatibility, the PM7000N features a raft of digital and analogue inputs. The USB-A interface is ideal for connecting a USB media device, with twin opticals and a coaxial digital input on hand for your TV, games console, CD player or other digital-out device. Three analogue inputs are perfect for hi-fi components, with the dedicated MM phono input ideal for plugging in a turntable.
For the highest quality in network streaming, just add speakers.
Big enough to sound special but small enough to fit in, the Monitor Audio Bronze 200 suits the widest range of spaces.
The versatile, compact floorstander Not too big, or too small, the Bronze 200s are the Goldilocks speaker! The floorstanding design makes these speakers easy to accommodate, without requiring speaker stands. The extra cabinet volume also helps improve the bass depth – without any additional footprint. Ideal for small to medium-sized rooms, the Bronze 200s fit easily into many modern homes.
Multi-award winner made better For many years, the Monitor Audio Bronze range has been the choice of critics and audiophiles on a budget alike. Now in its sixth generation, the Bronze is better than ever. Improvements to the famous metal drive units makes the sound more focused and lifelike. A crisp new design with contemporary finishes makes this the coolest Bronze yet.
Smooth and focused at the top end Featuring Monitor Audio’s famous C-CAM Gold Dome tweeters, the sound is every bit as crisp as you’d expect from this premium design. The latest developments add a UD (Uniform Dispersion) waveguide for a more focused and precise sound. Now featuring MA’s signature, hexagonal pattern grille, the tweeters look better than ever, too.
Twin, C-CAM bass drivers for lifelike sound Using two woofer units helps extend the bass lower, while preserving the quality of the mid-range – crucial for the best vocals. Developed from aerospace technology, the Ceramic-Coated Aluminium Magnesium (C-CAM) woofers give the perfect balance between bass weight and precision. New cone geometry and DCM (Damped Concentric Mode) tech gives increased control for an even more lifelike and natural sound.
Rigid cabinets for low distortion Class-leading drive units can only perform at their best if housed within a decent cabinet and here, once again, the Bronze range excels. The 21/15mm (baffle/cabinet) MDF construction features internal bracing for reduced vibration – giving cleaner, less distorted audio. Silver-plated, oxygen-free copper internal cable gives the highest quality current transfer, keeping the signal optimised.
Choice of contemporary finishes A fresh new aesthetic marks the 6G range out as the sharpest-looking Bronze range to date. The new two-tone finish makes for a crisper design and also reduces the speakers’ visual bulk. Choose between black or walnut with a dark grey satin finish baffle for a traditional look. Alternatively, match walnut or white with a light grey satin finish baffle for a lighter, more contemporary style.
Freestanding and free-spirited, the Monitor Audio Bronze 200 strikes the perfect balance between sound and style.
