Sadly not, since the black version was more expensive. But make the most of your new toy and let us know how it sounds. 😀

the black one on Amazon is still well priced.

Never known marantz to make a bad product.

And I give you the Marantz UD-7007 blu-ray player!

And I give you the Marantz UD-7007 blu-ray player!

As this was in the Hi-Fi section I was referring to their hi-fi range, not AVR.

Edit: OK point taken, it's a universal disc spinner

This isnt an AVR it is a Universal Disc player so can, and is, used as a hifi component.
I use an Oppo for SACD playback.

And I give you the Marantz UD-7007 blu-ray player!

Are you saying that's another good one, or a exception that was poor?

I'm guessing the latter... a lemon

 

[nopiano]

I'm guessing the latter... a lemon

Yes, that’s what I inferred, but I’d not heard it was a clunker before.

Concur with @WayneKerr and @nopiano I've yet to hear a poor Marantz. Can't comment on the UD 7007 though.

Isn't that model getting quite old now?

it is but believe it was brought up in response to the 'never heard a bad Marantz ' statement rather than in response to the OPs question.

Please update with your views on the CD 60 when you get it. Would love to know what you think of it along with your views of the amp of course.

Hi

Please update with your views on the CD 60 when you get it. Would love to know what you think of it along with your views of the amp of course.

I am just getting used too the sound on diffrent genres on the CD60 it sounds brilliant so far the depth is amazing the Amp is a box of trix with the HEOS sounds brill With the CD but not the TV so i am going too use the PM6005 Marantz for the TV ONLY has it has a loudness control. still experimenting i keep you posted.

 

[Shrek]

I think the pm 7000 marantz has too much treble for my ears .

 

[plastic penguin]

it is but believe it was brought up in response to the 'never heard a bad Marantz ' statement rather than in response to the OPs question.

I was just responding to @record_spot , @WayneKerr and @nopiano response. I've personally not come across a bad Marantz, but not heard the UD 7007

 

[record_spot]

The problem with the Marantz UD7007 was it didn't deliver in enough areas - good, but not brilliant sound, very sluggish transport, slow loading times to get a Blu-ray up and running (and yes, universal players can be slightly slower as they have to check what type of disc they're loading, but this was at a glacial pace). It was £1,000 on release. The What Hi-Fi review on here had it priced at £700 and I got mine in 2014 for half price from Richer Sounds.

Richer Sounds later that year offered the Cambridge Audio 752BD and it blew the Marantz away. Fast loading times, great interface, terrific sound. I still have the Cambridge now and it's still as good. The DACMagic 200M is another level though.

It wasn't Marantz' finest hour and I probably should've realised that a component going straight to the discount bins not long after its' release ought to have been a big red flag!

You think? I'm thinking it's perfectly balanced. What speakers? My Dali Oberon 5 seem like a great partnership
