Marantz PM5005 Stereo Amplifier

The PM5005 is more than an upgraded successor to the multi-awardwinning PM5004. Of course, we have retained the pre-amp and power-amp sections that exclusively feature discrete components - not a single IC in sight of the signal path. That's because specially selected single components not only outperform ICs in quality, they also make it possible to refine the sound in much more detail, resulting in more clarity and transparency. And of course we have retained the lower impedance shielded Toroidal transformer, as well as the customized main capacitors. And of course all of the original features - such as five-line audio input including phono, two-pairs of gold-plated speaker connections with the convenience of bi-wiring, and a remote handset - are all still there. But now, the unit includes optical and coaxial digital inputs. And the complete digital section is fully shielded by an extra metal housing to ensure that the digital stage has no effect on the analogue signal. In short, the new PM5005 is your proven and excellent bridge to the future.
