Middle kids, like the Marantz SR5003, attract the spec-savvy consumer on a budget—the one who asks, “Which of these things do I really need, and how little can I spend to get them?” The Marantz SR5003 is worth some extra attention, even for the value-conscious shopper. Its rated 90 watts per channel that offers onboard decoding for lossless Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio. The company even throws in a few extra Dolbys—Dolby Virtual Speaker, for the many consumers who still buy surround receivers and use them with two speakers, and Dolby Headphone, which brings surround-like effects to the private domain of wired listening. It also has THX Neural, which can serve as either an encode/decode format (in XMHD satellite radio broadcasts, among other uses) or as a stereo-to-surround enhancement for both music and games. Marantz also continues to support Circle Surround II from SRS, which is another stereo-to-surround enhancer that includes a scheme to enhance bass by manipulating the overtones associated with low frequencies. Finally, there’s HDCD decoding for HDCD-encoded CD releases that squeeze extra resolution out of the least significant bit. Connections Inputs: Video: HDMI 1.3a (3), component video (3), S-video (5), composite video (5) Audio: Coaxial digital (2), optical digital (4), BNC digital (2), 7.1-channel analog (1), stereo analog (7) Additional: Sirius (1), XM (1), AM (1), FM (1) Outputs: Video: HDMI (1), component video (2), S-video (2), composite video (2) Audio: Optical digital (1), stereo analog (4), 7.1-channel preamp (1), 0.25-inch headphone Additional: Remote control in/out (2), flasher in (1), DC trigger (1) The Marantz provides both XM and Sirius. For compressed audio, the receiver offers M-DAX. That stands for Marantz Dynamic Audio eXpander. The receiver offers a second zone and can repurpose the back-surround channels for biamplifying the front left and right. Associated gear for this review included my usual stalwarts—Paradigm’s Reference Studio 20 v4 speakers running full range, along with the Pioneer BDP-HD1 Blu-ray player, Integra DPS-10.5 universal player, Rega Planar 25 turntable, Shure V97xE phono cartridge, and NAD PP-1 phono preamp. All movie selections were Blu-ray Discs.The mixer did an outstanding job of balancing loud effects (explosions, gunplay, etc.), dialogue, music that spans the spectrum from hip hop to hardcore, and occasional rainfall with the softly percussive pitter-patter sound of fat raindrops hitting concrete. I set the volume once, set my expectation meter to “Seagal,” and enjoyed the movie. With good source material and a lossless signal, this receiver could handle potentially abrasive material slickly. If only life could be this good all the time. Marantz SR5003 A/V Receiver HT Labs Measures HT Labs Measures Five channels driven continuously into 8-ohm loads: 0.1% distortion at 103.8 watts 1% distortion at 118.0 watts Seven channels driven continuously into 8-ohm loads: 0.1% distortion at 88.2 watts 1% distortion at 99.9 watts Analog frequency response in Pure Direct mode: –0.50 dB at 10 Hz –0.15 dB at 20 Hz –0.01 dB at 20 kHz –2.91 dB at 50 kHz Analog frequency response with stereo signal processing: –0.56 dB at 10 Hz –0.18 dB at 20 Hz –0.18 dB at 20 kHz –27.20 dB at 50 kHz This graph shows that the SR5003’s left channel, from CD input to speaker output with two channels driving 8-ohm loads, reaches 0.1 percent distortion at 153.1 watts and 1 percent distortion at 171.3 watts. Into 4 ohms, the amplifier reaches 0.1 percent distortion at 204.7 watts and 1 percent distortion at 239.6 watts. Response from the multichannel input to the speaker output measures –0.51 decibels at 10 hertz, –0.15 dB at 20 Hz, –0.05 dB at 20 kilohertz, and –2.96 dB at 50 kHz. THD+N from the CD input to the speaker output was less than 0.008 percent at 1 kHz when driving 2.83 volts into an 8-ohm load. Crosstalk at 1 kHz driving 2.83 volts into an 8-ohm load was –87.72 dB left to right and –88.69 dB right to left. The signal-to-noise ratio with 2.83 volts driving an 8-ohm load from 10 Hz to 24 kHz with “A” weighting was –102.19 dBrA. From the Dolby Digital input to the loudspeaker output, the left channel measures –0.12 dB at 20 Hz and –0.16 dB at 20 kHz. The center channel measures –0.13 dB at 20 Hz and +0.01 dB at 20 kHz. The left surround channel measures –0.12 dB at 20 Hz and –0.03 dB at 20 kHz. From the Dolby Digital input to the line-level output, the LFE channel is –0.01 dB at 20 Hz when referenced to the level at 40 Hz and reaches the upper 3-dB down point at 114 Hz and the upper 6-dB down point at 120 Hz.—MJP New 1994 Royal Doulton Josephine China Collection Model H5235Definitive Technology BP-10 Standing Direct Reflect Main Speakers &Kazak 50x 180 Hand Spun Wool Runner in Our Store https://www.ebay.com/str/motorswheelswings ***VERY IMPORTANT TO RESEARCH AS WE CANNOT ACCOMMODATE INTERNATIONAL RETURNS. ***PLEASE EXAMINE USED PARTS ON A FULL SIZE SCREEN,-WE WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY
