Hi Billy - the unit comes with feet, and the rack hardware can be removed. It's hard to say about whether Marantz will continue making CD recorders.....solid state recorders are becoming the standard now...nonetheless Denon/Marantz has not officially discontinued this product. If you have any other questions feel free to reply to this email or call me toll free at 888-462-7828. Best regards, Tim Brown | daleproaudio

I wouldnt say night and day,is there a difference yes. The Marantz has the audyssey xt32 calbration with sub eq-ht that calibrates dual subs which would make a big difference if you have dual subwoofers. The Marantz has better DACs and is made to be used with separate amps. The biggest difference is in the separate external amps and Audyssey calibration for dual subs.

Unfortunately, It seems no add-ones considered for this model. Full Datasheet can be seen here: (Main Distributor) http://www.poweracoustik.com/pa2012/source-units-PTID-8920.html

No, but you can easily add later via Marantz blue tooth module or a third party.

Wasn't familiar with the PL-518, so I looked at the unit online. Looks like it should work. The Shure has the standard 2 screw attachment points, like the Pioneer headshell I saw online. My original intent was to use the old headshell from my 80's Technics TT, but the wires on the Shure were beefier than on my old headshell. I purchased a generic one from a local record shop (really), but you can find them on Amazon also. I've never owned a Stanton 680EE or other Stanton products. I found a rave review for this unit, however, so I'm sure you're happy with it. The Shure M97xE was a bit of a compromise for me, I found it for under $70 and it was reviewed well, so I went for it instead of the AT440MLA @ $140. I'm very happy with the Shure unit, and truth be told, I use my garage stereo more than my living room stereo, so I guess I'm not that picky anyway. Of course the AT440MLA is over $200 now, so kinda wish I bought it back then. Hope you find something good at Record Store Day tomorrow. Clark

I do not know.!. I do not have a Bose to compare it. 2. The marantz, looks amazing but is so difficult to install onto the wifi that I am having to employ a techo' to install it so even weeks after the purchase it will not be till next Thursday 09/17 that it will be operational; I hope! It may be good , it may be better than Bose ( had excellent reports) and jbl; don't know yet! Sorry

The URC A6 is an IR remote, so be sure the Marantz SR7000 also comes with an IR remote. The URC A6 comes with lots of pre-loaded codes and can learn new codes so there is every reason to believe it would work with the SR7000.

Hi, I think that you have to keep in mind is that Marantz has discontinued the CD6004 and his catalog appears with the same Price, in addition to the term HI FI. I would opt for the DC6005.

I cannot say for sure, but I use a Bose Acoustimass with our Marantz. I just don't know about versions. Ours is at least 20 years old so I just can't verify it is the same architecture as the series you referenced.

The only time you clip the SR6008 is if you are at max volume 99 and it begins to overheat, you can avoid this problem with after market cooling fans. If you don't mind spending the money the Marantz is a far superior device!

Thank you for your question. The Marantz SR6008 uses HDMI 1.4. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

Though you have likely made your decision, I upgraded from a 3602 (a model that's superior to the 3080 on paper) and could tell the difference with the 3908. It was night and day. I would even wager that this system is superior to a more expensive setup, like a Bose Companion 3 (from what I've heard in person) for instance. Though some would tell you Bose is overpriced/average quality, it's one of the few premium sets I have listened to.

Hi Peter, I work for a home cinema company and have these on a Marantz 8801. They are the most under rated speaker on the market, they can be a little bass heavy (it is controlled bass mind you) this is easily adjusted anyway in a nutshell Amazing speakers and massively under priced :)

Not sure it you have purchased the product already. Wanted to replay as the 500s are on 'Today's deal' and the difference is 30 now. hope you get email for this reply. I compared both the system when I bought them year ago and chose 500. The difference was not 200 for me in a local electronics store. If you listen to lot of music, I guess the difference is justified.

I use the marantz to drive two rega rs1, with rega speaker cables. It does the job quite well. Excelent highs and pretty god bass. Excellent instrument separation. Very good depth. Hope this helps.

I just use my marantz 5005 receiver and run my audio and video thru the receiver...no separate amp required as long as u have an AV (audio video) receiver
