Marantz AV8801 11.2 channel home theater preamp/processor - $600 (Laurel)
QR Code Link to This Post
Please note this is NOT a receiver, it requires an external amplifier (not included) to power your speakers.
Microphone included for Audyssey Laboratories' MultEQ XT32 auto setup and room calibration system. Remote is backlit and is "learning" remote, which means it can be programmed to control other brands / devices in your A/V system. Lots of HDMI, RCA, XLR, and optical/coaxial digital inputs & outputs. Includes a built-in Ethernet switch (see photos of rear panel) to simplify wired internet connections to your other streaming devices, however it does not have WiFi capability - only wired Ethernet.
We only used a few of the inputs and features, but to the best of my knowledge everything works correctly, with the exception of the remote control "volume up" button which intermittently does not work. I would increase the volume with the knob on the front of the unit. The unit can also be controlled via a web interface from a browser on your phone or tablet, including volume control.
Includes original box, packing material, and accessories (remote control, power cord, Audyssey mic, antennas, and manuals).
