Old Vs NEW! Our Experts Compare Marantz Cinema 60 to SR5015: Is the Upgrade Worth It?

[@mnrodriguez]

Great information! Any difference in audio quality?

[@gabemartinez1012]

What about sound comparison

[@elcues]

On the Cinema 60 are the two sub woofers out independent or just one output split. Thanl You:

[@Audioenthusatic]

[@ynasra1065]

Here is a user from Spain. A month ago I bought the Sr8015 with two Dali Opticon 6 mk2 speakers. I could have gone for the cinema 40, but it has less power. What really made the difference and made me decide on the sr8015 was the TOROIDAL transformer, if you are looking for Hifi that makes the difference. The architecture of the new cinemas is monolithic, they will sound good I don't doubt it, but they lack the toroidal transformer. The sr8015 also has 8k (almost non-existent in bluray and compressed on youtube) and by comparison, the heaviest. It weighs more, in audio equipment the weight is an indication of quality. I am very happy for having chosen the se8015, it is a 2020 model (my equipment was manufactured in September 2022 compared with marantz). It cannot be considered old. I think that the cinemas are a marketing strategy and renewal of the models, they will sound good, but I doubt that better. That said, I advise you to find out about the Toroidals and their advantages. Greetings to everyone who has read it in its entirety.

Get a processor with a separate amp. Integrateds destroy sound. I have a 5015 and also use a processor and it's so much better

[@iampuzzleman282]

Did they ever solve the arc connectivity problems? On my unit I have to power it on all the time to restore connectivity. So many times the remote control doesn't turn on TV and receiver at the same time. installers just use optical to avoid all these problems. I have a Nad processor and it never has arc connectivity problems. The Marantz it's just so damn complicated.

The new silver ones looks awesome 🤘

Another great video Zac thank you from Australia.

[@arndtbc]

Cans you do the Cinema 50 and the SR6015?

[@AUDIOED73]

Great Video!! How about a Marantz AV7706 vs new AV10? $3500 vs $7000 - thx!!

[@kfl611]

7,000? Wow.

[@henrichandrew]

The most noticeable improvements, the new unit design are sleeker and cleaner. Also the remote is more elegance than the previous one. Other than the appearance, not many improvements of the Marantz Cinema 60, such as more stable wifi connection because using Wifi 5, unit display using OLED screen, and also the disappeared of legacy inputs (I like to say this rather than "older input). I don't think it worthy go to The Marantz Cinema 60 with minor improvement over SR 5015. And you could save more penny with the Marantz SR 5015...

[@gregorioavalos1256]

I don’t understand why it says atmos without height channels or preouts?

[@kfl611]

I just purchased, at a wonderful price an sr6010. What is your opinion of this amp? I purchased it for my nephew. I hope he will be thrilled I plan on mating it with a Lexicon mc-12 and 50's tube gear and 1960's big ass speakers. Oh and a 50's/60's gates phonograph.

[@Dreamediaav]

You should have plugged them in at the same time to compair displays at the same time side by side , but nice video as well.

[@randelldavis578]

If I hadn't just got my sr6015 last year I would surely upgrade to the new cinema series 9.4.4

[@Dreamediaav]

We appreciate your business Randell! The 6015 is a great unit!

[@malibuman6160]

Now it seems there are deals so you can get the 7015 for the price of the Cinema 60… I assume the 7015 is much better?

[@SemiramisHotel89]

I have exactly the same question with you ???

[@kfl611]

Oh and everyone knows, nice equipment sounds better than ugly equipment.

[@Dreamediaav]

Absolutely! Aesthetics can definitely enhance the overall experience, and nice-looking equipment often gives a sense of quality and attention to detail that can influence our perception of sound.

[@kfl611]

@@Dreamediaav Yes ! Like whom would you rather kiss? Saying you didn't know the person - a good looking person, or an ugly looking person. After you get to know the person, that is a different story - just like after you listen to your audio equipment, you may not care if it is ugly or not.
