Fan of Marantz, and definitely interested in the CINEMA 50. Two things will have to happen before I buy: have to find my Marantz SR7011 a new home, and Marantz will have to announce the cost to upgrade to DIRAC. Once those two things happen, sign me up. The CINEMA 50 seems like the perfect solution for my A/V system in a new room.

I've got a Samsung tv setup like this and there is about a third second delay between screen and audio, with no way to correct it apart from setting the Xbox to stereo output. It seems that the tv introduces the delay even when set to pass through. I've just upgraded my av receiver to a new one with 4/8k connections to fix it. Previous generations of Xbox had an optical out on the console, this only started being an issue on the new generation of consoles. Forums suggest LG tv's also have the same issue.

Marantz has always made excellent AVRs. I'm looking forward to this new generation.

I dig it! Love the aesthetic like the Model 30 and 40 2-channel gear. I've thought the older models' appearances were starting to get a bit stale. And 4 independent sub outs at $2500 can't be beat. That, combined with the future Dirac Live upgrade very well may make this the best AVR under $3000.

This is nice- I like it. Dirac live seems like the biggest change. Aside from that, it’s really more of the same here. The focus being on more bells and whistles, more channels, and handsome aesthetics. It’s probably a very competent A/V receiver, but I just wish they would stop putting money into things most of us do not use, and instead focus on power supply, higher quality caps, and overall sound quality. My Denon X4100W still does a quality job with A/V, and I’ve heard newer units up to current with such diminishing returns in sound quality upon increased costs, I don’t think it’s worth upgrading at all, unless you just gotta have some particular feature set.

Coming soon. The 40 is supposed to be in the first part of 2023

Update on mine after about a month, added 2 small height speakers (cambridge minx) speakers to go with the BW 6 series 5.1 setup (might change these for BW M1's down the line but these sound pretty good so far). The upmixing modes for Atmos and DTX Neural X are very impressive - mostly sending the right sounds to the height speakers from 5.1 mixes. DTS Neural X upmixing seems a bit "hot" compared the Atmos upmixing, DTS NX seems to crank up the volume on the heights and introduce more mistakes in the mix while the Atmos upmixing sounds more natural. One annoying bug is that if you are streaming music using spotify connect with the TV off, it'll cut out every minute or so for a second - hopefully this is something that gets fixed in a firmware update because music sounds great on it and there is no reason to need the TV to be on considering you can control it with your phone. I've not figured out how to automatically make it switch the TV to game mode when playing a game so I'm having to manually set that every time (all devices are routed through the AVR).

I have Duntech Sovereigns for L/R (room was originally audio only) and Revel center, with different brand surround and Atmos. I'm hoping that Dirac Live would do a better job dealing with these limitations. I may also replace the 8 surround/Atmos to try for more consistent Timbre. So while this is relatively pricey, there aren't many cheaper options for Dirac Live that would match my particular needs. But thanks for the reply.

@@dlcphoto Don't Pioneer and Onkyo include Dirac Live? Never heard of Duntech - my god, do they weight 275lbs each? Yeah, I can see how room correction is important for you. I've been pondering the same as my living room is a cathedral ceiling and my system is at the bottoming part. I use Audyssey and interestingly it comes up with difference measurements every time but the results are always better than not having room correction and sometimes excellent. I wouldn't bother about the consistency of the timbre for the surrounds - there's so little sound relatively in movies from those channels and when there's sound, it's impossible to tell it apart - games would be more important as sound as you're the director and the score changes all the time as you turn left and right but you still need a voice in some cutscene for that to be noticeable. Atmos speakers will always be different than the rest of the speakers unless you plan to hang 4 Duntechs from the ceiling😄 What's the pricing for Dirac Live? Do we know?

@@techsamurai11 Thanks for the reply. Yeah, the Duntech's are a beast for sure! I bought them in 1990 when we added this room to our home, and my orientation was audio and not video. And I think you're right that Onkyo has a Dirac Live option; haven't seen anything with Pioneer, but I could be wrong. As for using the same speakers and having ideal timbre matching, I do wonder how much difference it makes. But people more knowledgeable in Audio than me seem to think it's important. To do this fully, I'd have to replace the Duntechs, which was around a $14,000 purchase back in 1990. It is generally considered one of the most accurate speakers, at least in 2-channel audio. They were there when I modified the room (light control mainly) to video, so just kept using them. Lastly, my eyes are now a lot better than my ears (I'm 71!), so the idea that I might not be able to actually hear the differences does cause me think twice before making any audio upgrades!😁

Mine arrived yesterday, upgraded from a Marantz NR1504. Have a B&W 6 series 5.1 setup (685/686). This sounds amazing in comparison - for stereo music it blows away the older AV receiver with a wide sound stage with great positioning - I've had to double check it wasn't doing some sort of surround mode a couple times because it sounded like parts of the song were coming from the centre. Audyssey detected my front and centre as large speakers, tried setting them to small with crossover to the sub at 60-80hz but audyssey was correct with it's settings, with the sub it was too much for the room to take for music.

You would pay for it one way or another. They either include it in the price of the unit, whether you want it or not, or set things up so that it's an optional extra for those who want to pay a little more. I think this is a fairer way to do it - many people will be happy enough with Audessey, Dirac is slightly more niche (having said that, I'm aiming for a new receiver in the near future and Dirac is a must-have)
