Music
Marantz’s proprietary M-DAX2 (Marantz Dynamic Audio eXpander) makes even compressed audio signals (MP3s, AM/FM broadcasts, etc.) sound closer to CDs than you ever thought possible. As it dynamically analyses a compressed signal, MDAX2 recreates the missing high frequency spectrum for your enhanced enjoyment.
The multi-source, multi-room ability of the Marantz SR6006 allows you to select an independent audio source for a second room.
The Marantz SR6006 comes with the RC011SR remote control. This has an LCD display read out for complete and user friendly control feedback. It also has programmable keys for entire system control by assigning IR commands from any device, into one learning remote, and macro function keys that ensure multiple IR commands activated with one key for maximum ease of use.
