Marantz NR1506

If you don’t want big, imposing cabinets in your living room, then consider the slim-line NR1506 A/V Receiver. Although it is super-slim it packs the same punch as larger models, delivering ear-cracking, five-channel surround sound from 50W per channel and decoded Dolby True HD and DTS-HD™ audio. It also has Bluetooth ® and Wi-Fi built in, so you can enjoy your digital media files from wherever they are stored. Also, even though it is a slim-line receiver, it boasts the same networking facilities for audio streaming as bigger models. It gives you Internet radio, AirPlay ® and Spotify Connect ® – as well as Gapless HD Audio and DSD streaming. But it’s not just the audio that is spectacular with the NR1506. The advanced video section features 6 HDMI 2.0a inputs (including 1 on the front panel), providing full compatibility with the latest 4K Ultra HD video specification, including 60Hz full rate pass-through, 4:4:4 pure color sub-sampling, Hyper Dynamic Range (HDR) and BT.2020 pass-through. All 6 HDMI inputs are also HDCP 2.2 compliant, which is a requirement for 4K Ultra HD copy-protected content. Setup is easy - with the help of the Hybrid GUI, Setup Assistant, Audyssey MultEQ and Microphone – so there is no need to study the manual, just follow the on-screen instructions. The NR1506 includes a smart ECO mode that can automatically save significant electrical power. It all adds up to easy-to-use slim-line elegance with Smart Select buttons and a powerful punch.
