2016 was the last time Marantz announced a new range of “reference quality” hi-fi products, so it’s fair to say that the arrival of its new 10 Series should be regarded as highly significant news in these parts.
The new range consists of three products: the Model 10 stereo amplifier, the SACD 10 SACD/CD player and the Link 10n network audio player. The Model 10 will be the first product in shops with the other two to follow at later (and as yet unconfirmed) dates. As you have probably guessed, the new range won’t be cheap, with the stereo amplifier coming in at $15,000 | £12,000 | €14,500. Whether the other two products will be quite at that level remains to be seen, but that gives you some idea of where this new range is being pitched.
