[@KAL-589]

Thank you for the review comparison. ❤

[@bawdahoppa16]

Thank you for this and other reviews 👏. Do you know if the CD50N, or any other Marantz network streamers, can display track artwork/now playing on a HDMI connected TV - like the Stereo 70s and other AVRs?

[@HIFIDaydreaming]

Yes absolutely, as long as your streamer and tv have hdmi arc, you can always display artwork in your tv. And thanks for watching man it is appriciated.

pls compare denon dcd 1700ne cd sound to marantz cd50n...in your opinion.. pls describe ,, cd sound diffs

[@HIFIDaydreaming]

Hi, unfortunately I don't have experience with Denon 1700ne that much to make a comparison between two devices. Hopefully in future I can acquire DCD1700ne as I am super interested how it fairs against cd players from Marantz, Audiolab and Arcam. I know this was not helpful, but thanks for watching my review!

Jesi imao prilike da uporedis CD50n sa 40n? Posto mi svejedno treba CD player planiram da 40n koristim samo kao power amp, a da CD50n radi striming. Negde sam procitao da je DAC u CD50n drasticno bolji od onog u 40n i da je zvuk drasticno bolji u toj kombinaciji. Ali u tom testingu kao amp je koriscen model 50 koji je isti ili slican ampu u 40n (70W). Mislis li da bi to ulaganje doprinelo u zvuku ako si uopste uspeo da cujes 40n. Pozz

[@HIFIDaydreaming]

Nisam, ali sam koratio cd50 sa model 50. Tako jest ja sam od svih marantz ampova izabrao model 50. Iskreno nemoj da kupuješ 40n, kupi 50-50. Imaćeš i bolji amp i preamp i dac u toj kombinaciji. Treba sutra da izbacim 70s recenziju i za koju nedelju model 50 recenziju gde baš pričam kako je mnogo bolja varijanta model 50 nego 40n. Tako da uvek 50-50 i imaš ceo mnogo bolji sistem od samo 40n.

@@HIFIDaydreaming Sve mi jasno nego vec imam 40n pa sam hteo da na njega nabacim CD50n, a da 40n koristim samo kao klasican amp. Nego ne znam ima li opipljive razlike u zvuku i da li se isplati. Mislim da ima posto CD50n ima bolji DAC. Inace i 40n sa B&W 703 S3 zvuci odlicno. Mislim da su odlican spoj toplog Marantz zvuka i Bower visokotonca. Planiram da kupim CD uz 40n pa mi ovaj CD50n deluje kao dobra opcija. On je CD player, bolji network od 40n, preamp ako nekad zatreba...

@@duleendlesssport6513 napisah negde ovde da bowers and marantz are match made in heaven. Jako dobra sinergija. Pazi sve sto govoriš je tačno, dac ideš kroz cd 50n, i dobijaš odličan cd player. Koristiš 40n kao streamer i kao power amp. Pošto si svakako hteo cd player to ti je odlična kombinacija

[@duleendlesssport6513]

@@HIFIDaydreaming kod 40n kad ga prebacis u amp mode gasi se dac i striming. Morao bi 40n da bude klasican amp, a strim i dac da ide sa CD50n. Verujem da ta kombinacija funkcionise. Hvala za info i odgovore :)

[@JohnSmith-zl8rz]

the Marantz can read SACD rips .iso or .dsf/.dff files ? via USB? or via network?

[@HIFIDaydreaming]

This is what manuel says: 0 WMA 0 MP3 0 WAV 0 MPEG-4 AAC 0 FLAC 0 Apple Lossless 0 DSD

[@KAL-589]

Both devices are 1800 EUR here actually.

[@HIFIDaydreaming]

Interestingly in my country are this prices I mentioned in review. But i guess prices for hifi heavily vary from country to country. www.player.rs/hi-fi/plejeri/cd-plejeri/primare-cd15-prisma-titan (131000 rsd is around 1120 eur)

[@Evolved_ue7]

Marantz model 50 and cd50n under 2k right now, bargain ..

[@HIFIDaydreaming]

@Evolved_ue7 thats a crazy good deal!

[@JohnSmith-zl8rz]

I hate slot loading cd players, that can scratch discs.

[@HIFIDaydreaming]

Same here, friend.
