Marantz AVR SR7015-9.2 Channel Amplifier, 8K HDMI Upscaling, Auro 3D, IMAX Enhanced, Dolby Surround Sound, Alexa + HEOS Compatibility, Easy to Setup

When I built my new media room I started with a Marantz SR-7011 which was a good system for the size of the room ( 24x14x8 ) and the Golden Ear surround sound speakers. When I recently added Dolby Atmos capable Golden Ear front height and ceiling speakers and an 80" Sony Bravia , it was necessary to upgrade to the amazing SR-7015 to handle the 11.2 surround ( I have additional 2 channel Anthem amp for the ceiling speakers to supplement the 9.2 that Marantz has internal amps for ).The on screen set-up is easy and user friendly. It asks questions...you answer . It does all the work !The newest Audyssey MultEQ built in software is a simple, accurate set-up calibration of your system to the room in which it's used ! Beats the heck out of manually setting 11 speakers and 2 subs.Add a new 48Gb 8K ARC HDMI to your flat panel from the SR-7015 and you'll get the most amazing picture you have ever seen and enjoyed.The best investment you can make are your speakers first and then your A/V receiver ! Oh and the music in surround ( like YouTube ) is incredible too !Buy this one and you will not be disappointed .

This SR 7015 AVR is an upgrade from the Denon AVR-X2700H which I believed produced very nice sound quality since I bought it. There were a number of features on the Marantz that the Denon did not have. I wasn’t expecting a huge difference in sound and video quality. Was I ever wrong! The differences in sound quality are not just subtle, but substantial if not dramatic in many ways.My AVR system uses all Polk speakers with an SVS 3000 Micro subwoofer. I am using 2 Polk Reserve R900 top firing Adobe Atmos modules seated on top of the Polk front speakers. Do not believe all of the skeptics about using top-firing Atmos modules. I am getting stunning Dolby Atmos effects with this arrangement.I also run my video through the “standard” picture quality option in the Marantz AVR. I never thought AVR receivers needed a break–in period, but after around 5 days, everything just blossomed. I have never heard such sound quality and seen such outstanding picture quality from my Sony Bravia 4K TV until now with this new SR 7015 AVR.All on all, I could not be more pleased with this Marantz AVR. It has delivered far more than what I expected.

I have read sound metrics that register distortion at a higher level than a familial twin; however, I guess my ears prefer the Marantz musical character. The timing of my purchase was great for my budget and I couldn't have wished for a better win-win in my case. As always, I suggest anyone should trust their ears on comparable speakers to what you actually have to be fair. Full disclosure, this replaced a prior Marantz SR8001 which served me well and finally died and the advancements have been remarkable. My great Pioneer plasma looks incredibly better and my speakers have more definition. If you're sitting on the fence about. upgrading, it may be well worth it!

I did have issue with getting 4K DVD to work correctly, Marantz support was worthless, they said send to them, which would have been a major hassle, well they did have me reset the firmware, also a hassle since I had to redo the sound calibration, which is a bit time-consuming. I have a Vizio M series 4K and I guess the HMDI I was using has some issue with the 4K ultra player, so I changed the HDMI port and works fine. My only gripe now is small but CES for TV will turn off the SR7015 but will not turn it on. Otherwise setup is easy, sound is great, and at the moment I only have 7 speakers hooked up, Still need to do my Atmos speakers.

Great receiver. Pretty much using it as a preamp. Mated it with an older Marantz MM9000. Sounds great. Plan to hook up a couple Atmos and multi room speakers. Sound quality is great. User interface is nice, can control from my iPad. Initial setup is a breeze. Did have a little trouble with the trigger to my amplifier, ground loop noise. After much exploration ended up cutting the ground wire in the trigger cable. All is good!

Very heavy unit, seems to be very well built, very sturdy. Lots of features and the sound quality is very good. This Marantz has nice clear sound and I can understand movie conversations that were hard to understand with old unit. With music I can hear individual voices of the singers and the different instruments. Not a cheap unit in cost, but if you want a good unit this could be the one to get.

Used to rely upon Sony Amps, but the STR-2A810ES with it's confusing screen setup never really worked as we wanted. Updated to the Marantz SR7015 on the advice of a Crutchfield representative. Running 5.1 and a Zone 2 with no problems to date. Other equipment is a Roku Ultra, wired Ethernet, and a Samsung UN55C8000 that is 13 years old and providing a clear and colorful picture. Only drawback is TV speaker volumn is low, but the Marantz has resolved that problem.

The SR7015 arrived very quickly. Well packed and easy setup. Worked great for a couple of weeks then it didn't. My wife and I sat down to watch a movie and the video started as usual then the screen went blank, then it came back on, then it went blank again. This continued for some time, so the projector was shut down and turned on the tv that is also connected to the receiver and same story there.Needed Amazon's help to contact the seller.
