For the price, I think the Sonos Amp is the best all in one. It gives you the ability to have whole home audio and pairs it with the best app experience. Also, the amp can expand into a 4.2 system for home theater.

My wife and I really appreciate this. She's just starting to get into the hobby so it's nice, as a couple, to listen to another couple about speakers and components.

I heard this with the Monitor Audio Gold 100 speakers and was highly impressed, so much so that I purchased them both. The stand out feature of the sound was the addictive realism, and rhythm, warmth, detail and simple rightness. Top marks to Marantz for this.

Another great and practical system review. Great to see natural excitement from both of you. Love the Marantz sound. I'm rocking a Model30 with a Node. I wish this unit was around. Awesome video.

Another great review of a product that really peaks my interest! I also was loving some of the new graphics. You are constantly improving and evolving your style and I really enjoy that.

I’ve been watching your channel and have been meaning to tell you this for a while. Your production is second to NONE on you tube as far as my opinion goes. The sound / recording of your voice and lighting, editing, content, writing are all top notch. Hopefully you’ll see this Andrew because I’m sure you would like positive feedback for all your hard work. Thanks man! Btw, in the late 80’s a sales guy in a hi-fi shop in Delaware steered me away from some Sony speakers to some beautiful Klipsch floor speakers and I haven’t looked back.

Came here for the product review and I got so much more. I'd never heard of Beth Hart, based on your mention of her St. Teresa song I listened to her Better Than Home album and WOW! I'm so moved. Thank you!

Marantz, hands down is my all in one. I have the programed 2.2 for all analog input (145W) then it goes to 7.2.4 on my HDMI inputs (100W). I love it.

Hi Andrew and Kristi. If i was starting my hi fi journey today, i probably would pick the Marantz 40 because of all its features. But that was 57 years ago. When i had more money i went the way of separate components because that was the next level of improved sound. A few months ago i saw on ebay a new preamplifier from Goldmund , the Swiss manufacturer of audio products. The preamp was based on the famous Marantz 7 from the late 50's. It is a tube line level preamp and is very minimal It only has 1 output and 4 inputs, a selector switch and a volume nob , which is all i need. It sounds great with my phono stage preamp and Rotel power amp. I got it for $400.

Great job as always. Very nice piece. Hopefully I’ll hear it one day. Keep up the good work. 🤘🏼🎸🤘🏼

The problem with all these digital and streaming featuring integrated amps is that they get obsolete quickly. Your money is much better spend on a true analog amp with external digital and streaming components.

Kristy & Andrew, thanks for the review. Have either of you heard any of the Marantz 70's 22xx A/B receivers? If so, any similarities with the Model 40?

I think the Marantz 40n is superb. I have owned and used a Denon AVR-X4300H for several years now and HEOS works great on that unit. On mine, you can use the TV as a large screen with artwork and other information displayed. It is also on the app and I have used Apple and Android for said app. HEOS has made whole house audio very easy (I now have ten total HEOS speakers around our home!). Thank you for a wonderful review that has me excited. You and Ian White at eCOUSTICS are both excellent reviewers and his review whetted my appetite for more and your review was that "more".

Enjoy your Chanel so much, thanks a lot. How do you think this Marantz compares with Nad M10 v2?

I have canceled my Tidal account since buying the Marantz Model 40n , when played from my Panasonic HDMI eARC connection to the Marantz Model 40n , the sound is far better than when listening from KZread ! I listen Tidal from the RME ADI - 2 DAC FS too , consequently I also sold the DAC too .

Wow, that sounds really weird - youtube audio should be pretty compressed actually - how could that be better? What happens when you open up Tidal on your TV or via Chromecast devices? Especially when you connect your TV via optical through the RME it should be way better in theory? From which Amp did you upgrade?

I purchased the Denon DM41 mini all in one hifi, it's about $500, it's won multiple hifi awards in it's multiple iterations over the year's, the reviews claim it puts some separates systems costing considerably much more to shame, I've partnered mine's with a set of Vintage Elatx Liberty 5+ speakers producing a very articulate sound, without being overly analytical and just enough warmth for long listening, as mine's is connected to my TV via optical cable it needs to be, I've seen this little system partnered with speakers upto the value of $2000, which I suppose is high praise indeed to have this level of confidence in a all in one costing less than #500, Thankyou for your great reviews 👍.

Glad to see a new, sleek, all in one that has the muscle to justify its presence. Though strangely, for being mostly an amp review, this video has me thinking more about sources and accessibility and how much those can vary, and thus how much of a godsend it is having more bases covered by less devices in total.

Definitely would like to see you compare this to the Model 30 though I know you'll ding it for the lack of HDMI.

I enjoyed your Marantz Review Andrew, I have a decision to make between the Technics sug700mk2 or the Marantz 40, I love the Sug700MK2 looks and style, but I'm a little apprehensive about getting into this new class of power as I'm so accustomed to old school amps, but also looking for a change. Any insight on how the Technics might match up with Totem Hawk speakers?

Thanks for another great review. I realize the features are much different but what is your choice for sound quality vs the Technics SU-G700 you like?

I really like the concept of a hybrid 2.1 stereo/H.T. integrated amp. I hope to see more of this sort of thing from other manufacturers too.

Nice review again. I think you should test NAD M10 V2 as one very popular all in one device.

Lyngdorf TDAI 1120 is top of my all in one wish list currently. Has reviewed extremely well, would love to hear your thoughts on it

Marantz has always got one of the best connectivity options in their products. And with this new amp I am compelled to take a look at it. Will try it out for my HeresyIV.

I'm w/Christi i like ALL black, not 2 tone, but Andrew, this sounds like the AMP for me, yesteryear is me, w/a few updates, this sounds like what I've been waiting for, great job Andrew, love ur review's man !!

RE the question of the day, I have a Lyngdorf TDAI-1120 on the way, intending to use it just like you all have used this one - a 2.1 music and TV combo. I wonder if you've heard that or would be interested in reviewing it.

I'd love to hear your take on pairing Marantz Model 40 with Polk R700 that you said do much better with some power.

you two are amazing once again great review detail and information.

You’ve got to love the Marantz sound.

Would be nice to see how the Marantz 40 compares to the brand new NAD C399 which has basically the same features at the same price point but runs BluOS innstead of Heos and is Class D.

I was just about to order the Parasound 2 days ago, my only pause was the lack of a HDMI as I would like that option to watch movies with my Klipsch Belle's, this sent me back to the Marantz website looking at the SR5015 & NR1711 both are known to lack the musicality. The Parasound checks every single thing except HDMI. Klipsch Belle's (to me) need that classic Marantz type sound, that's not really been available from them for some time in 2-channel fashion.

I wish HDMI Arc will become a standard input on all stereo receivers :( That would make life and choosing an amplifier sooo much easier..

I'm with Kristi on the looks, that's honestly the one thing holding me back from considering this. Make it matte black and add the screen for album art and I'm 100% sold

This unit is in my shortlist. I would audition it once it hits the local hifi store and I’m confident that I would end pulling the trigger on it.

“Cinematic AF” well that alone the 40 gets my vote. Will look further into this unit. Love Marantz’ sound signature. Another great video guys (and ladies 😉).

Will there be a review of the lyngdorf tdai 1120?

Man this AIO looks so good it's almost unreal. Whoever designed this thing earned his cash

Based on your previous recommendations for an amp to match well with the KEF LS50 Metas, would you now change that recommendation to be this amp instead of the Musical Fidelity 5Msi / Naim Uniti Atom ?

The only thing that I wish Marantz would get away from is the port hole display. But that's just me, maybe people like the port hole design. Rather than that, it looks like a awesome piece of equipment. Do you feel like people are starting to move towards more musical systems instead of multichannel setups? Seems to me that a good 2.0 or 2.1 setup gives the range of good music plus its good enough to satisfy people with movie performance as well. Maybe the days of 5/7/9 speakers in a room are on the downside. And this is just the machine to make that argument. Awesome review, keep up the great work.

Hi Andrew. I've had the primare i15 prisma amp for a while and I'm very happy with it. Quite a capable all-in-one for the money, though it does lack a phono stage (which I don't need ), and hdmi arc (which would be nice to have). When did you switch to preferring class A/B? I recall you expressing a preference for certain types of class D amps.

While it may not have Bluetooth or an HDMI input, I have my Yamaha A-S 801 (900.00) paired with a BlueSound Node2i (550.00), combined that’s a thousand bucks less than the M’Model40. The A-S 801 is A/B, puts out 100w. I doubt the phone stage is as good as the Marantz, but the Yamaha’s DAC is as good. This would be a really good comparison seeing as how much you liked the sound of the AS-801. I do really like look of the Marantz. I’m fickle when it comes to facial design and simplicity of use, and while it’s outside of the mainstream “block” design, they did a good job here, love the “backlighting”. Nice to have a volume readout too, and I’m sure the front display is dimmable. To mention the McIntosh “sound” in the same breath is much more than a compliment. In fact I’ve never heard you mention such reviewing a sub 4,000 integrated amp! The Model 30 that you mentioned is a Class D, amplifier that has received very good reviews, but is outplayed by the Model 40 in every way, except for output (70 v 100). The Model 30 has no digital inputs or Bluetooth, and for all intense purpose, is a Turntable owners best friend as it’s Phono Stage is as good as most you can buy individually. It’s no wonder you love the sound of this as the review by Stereophile Mag, loved the Class D sound of the 30, albeit with a few caveats. I love an all in one solution, and one delivering McIntosh Sound, or should I say, “approaching”, for 2499.00, looks to be a steal!!

This has my vote for the best super-integrated. For me, it would have been perfect had it the one key feature of the NR1200: HDMI switching. My TV is one short of HDMI inputs to route all my devices through the TV. But this is making me reconsider buying an external amp for the NR1200.

@@KristiWright Hello Kristi! Because I just saw it announced like 2 days ago and I thought (no kidding) “this sounds like a very good option for me, but will be launched till march, so I’ll get a good review maybe till may, so…” Then Andrew posted yesterday that a big must watch was coming today and I thought of the remote posibility and then, IT HAPPENED! So, that’s why my surprise. Always grateful for the Kristi’s thoughts section! Keep up the good work and really appreciate your reviews!

I was about to write the same comment :D

I thought you fell in love with the Technics Su G 700 :))

Good Morning! I greatly enjoy your reviews in general, but particularly the one on the Marantz Model 40n. While I've always loved music and have invested in some good equipment, I VERY recently became interested in hifi when I visited a high end stereo store and experienced a McIntosh system. I was blown away, and immediately began a savings plan toward purchasing an 8950. But then I started researching, and changed my mind due to the way I listen to music, which is more along the lines of streaming, verses phono or CD (neither of which I have), and the type of music I listen to... and how I listen to it - rock, country, and both very loud. All that to say, when you compared the Marantz to the McIntosh 7200, I was seriously swayed toward the Marantz, and have all but decided to buy it. But then I came across the NAD m33, and I am torn.... Your review on the 33 was perplexing, in that it left me with the impression that it was nearly perfect, but lacking emotional connection. The reason I'm drawn to it, possibly over the 40n, is the greater power it offers. My setup is a pair of Golden Ear Triton 7's along with a SVS PB 16 ultra and an Atlantic Technology 642e (because I absolutely love overwhelming, room shaking bass, and those are the subs that became available on the used market). As I understand it, the Tritons are relatively inefficient (89db I think?), so require a little more power. AND, the 33 has dual sub pre-outs, while the Marantz only has one. But... from your reviews, the 40n is more "musical" verses a more "clinical" 33.... Maybe this pairing of choices isn't exactly fair, considering the NAD costs twice as much as the Marantz, but, in your opinion, given the setup and the music taste, which one would you choose? Thank you in advance for your time!

Great review Andrew! So, I have a Marantz SR8012 already pushing my B&W 802s. I also have an SVS P3000 sub for good measure (my room is quite big 40 X40'). Thinking of going for a more refined 2-channel system that I can still listen to my TV through and was thinking of swapping the 8012 to either the 40N OR..... a Node 2 paired w/ Bryston 2.5B3, what are your thoughts?

Wow. Amazing praise for the model 40. It has the features that I like but I would like some more power. I'm anxiously waiting for a review of the NAD C399 Integrated Class D amplifier. It's now in the market and I'm hoping that Andrew can get his mitts on one and review it. Andrew, any chance that the NAD C399 will be an up and coming review of yours?

I don’t know…70A/B watts is a bunch!! Are your speakers that inefficient? I would look to that end as well…for an Integrated to be mentioned in the same breath as that McIntosh, which sounds stupidly good, would be worth making sure you have a set of speakers to match it!

Phillip, no plans for any NAD reviews unfortunately. Not for a lack of effort…

@@Csnumber1 I'm purchasing my amp to support the new Floor standing speakers I'm getting as well. They range from Dynaudio Evoke 50, Sonus Faber Sonetto 5, Triangle EZ Australe or Paradigm Founder 100F. My listening room is fairly large, so I want to be able to get the maximum quality and higher volumes.

@@andrewrobinsonreviews HI Andrew. Your reviews are a big part on what and how I consider the products that I look at. I'm prepared to wait it out until you can review this item. The potential value to performance to features ratio of the NAD C399 is compelling. My first choice thus far is the Yamaha A-S1200. But then it means I need to add on Dacs, Bluetooth and other peripheral digital components on top of it. Space for me is a concern. It will be shared with my home theater equipment in the same Bello display unit. I will be partnering my new Integrated Amp with the following speakers on my shopping list. Dynaudio Evoke 50, Sonus Faber Sonetto 5, Triangle EZ Australe or Paradigm Founder 100F.

@Philip Ciantar I would love to bring you this review. My only suggestion would be to contact NAD and their parent company Lenbrook to let them know you want to see their products on the channel.

Given the positioning and price, the Arcam SA30 seems to be a good candidate for comparison. The Arcam has a similar but richer set of inputs, a more powerful power amplifier and the Dirac room correction system. In my country the SRP is identical for both, so customers will naturally consider both models.

the ARCAM sa 30 is a good notch above, very easy and it is much more powerful!!!

After watching your review of the Marantz Model 40n, I immediately looked it up on the Marantz website. Exciting stereo receiver that'll offer all of the modern connectivity I've been searching for. My only disappointment is that it won't support two more speakers. But that is totally ok as it has so much going for it.

Nice review again😊 I like the looks of it...and the hdmi input..I wish more integrated amps had that. I'm not a fan of Heos so need for that😅 I love my Hegel and waiting for your review of one of their amps😉...H120 or H95 (yeah...I've mentioned them a few times earlier 😅) should be a good comparison to the Marantz.

Thanks for turning me on to Beth Hart. Love your channel.Keep up the great content .

@robinsonbrand would love to hear your take on Model 30 and how this compares with Model 30

Nice review. Enjoyed the video.

Great review! To answer your question on the favorite integrative amp then I would go with Hegel. I picked up the H390 this past year and love it. I would be very interested in hearing your review on any of the integrative amps from Hegel. Thanks again.
