This dude should do movie trailers voice overs.
Thank you! I do voiceover on the side so maybe one day.
Yeah he has great and deep voice✌️
Hello!
Would you recomend a "non slim" option having this specs? (price, 2.1 hdmi) Great video!
I mean, if I have the room to fit the non slim, is it a better option?
Excellent review, highly informative with a very smooth and professional delivery...thanks!
Thank you Andrew!
how is this a review, when you don't even plug it in and turn it on??
@@SK-nq1wj not a review there either.
My biggest problem with this receiver is it only has 1 port that can do 4k 120fps with VRR ALLM and QFT
I will be getting both PS5 and Xbox Series X... So I need more than 1 port that can support 4k at 120fps.
I have a QLED which only supports 1 port at 4k 120fps
The only Receiver that gives you more than 1 HDMI 2.1 port is Yamahas RX-V6A
That says in a future update, It doesn't even support any HDMI 2.1 out of the box? So who even knows if they will even give it to us?
As these companies promise and never deliver all the time...
Great review by the way!
Unfortunately this is the slow burn reality of HDMI 2.1 adoption. It frustrates us here as well. I certainly hope that will change soon. It is likely to on high end separate preamp/processors next year, hard to say about entry to mid grade receivers though. I also hope to see some decent HDMI 2.1 switches come out for this exact reason.
Well said see whats the use of buying this product when most TV are going 4K 120 fps with VRR and yet AV 's are not compatible with 2.1 hdmi set up's even most web pages for products say with firmware update yet paying over 2K for a product which does not support the various TV's in 4K/8K yet, linking and syncing together with the same systems firmware etc etc? Even Yamaha's RX-V6A says with firmware update ?
Could you please confirm if this model has pre outs to connect a external 2 channel amp? Thanks
Yes it does but the the NR1711 has no trouble driving my floorstanders. Y
I had Denon DRA-100 and now i got this marantz nr1711, £649 in uk,this is the best avr receiver in my opinion,calibrated sound with audyssey mic gave me amazing sound quality,i have pair of dali oberon 3,centre zensor piko vokal and rear dali fazon mikro,just need a pair of small front atmos speakers and all set,i love audio settings,EQ audyssey on or off,when off than i can add more bass or treble,i love this marantz,i use earc hdmi with samsung QN95A 2021 model with dolby atmos passthru
It's the 7-11 of A/V Receivers - one stop shopping and it can even make Pop Corn. I'm getting one in Jan -
Great Presentation, Luke, use the Remote, Luke, I feel the force is strong with you. Thanks for confirming a few hours or AV Receiver research - : )
Can you get this receiver and use normal speakers for atmos? I’m wanting to get Q Acoustics Q7000i speakers to pair with this?
you can use any speakers for atmos
Can it handle hdr for each component , 4K blu ray and ps5 ? Through their hdmi connection port ?
Yes
I watched this video and bought this AVR. It's still boxed up and waiting for more surround speakers and my new TV and have everything set up together. I'm super excited to see how it performs.
Please let me know your thoughts once you try it!
Nice vid bud mute the background music when you're talking
Kinda odd that a video discussing audio has crappy audio itself. Why is he not mic'ed?
This isn’t a review. It’s an unboxing.
Indeed
Problem with this for me is the depth. Taking into account the connections at the back it wont fit on my shelf without the unit hanging over the edge.
Does the NR1711 can handle 5.1.2 atmos configuration?
Yes it can
I have an early Marantz receiver and they have introduced a payment for internet radio, not fair
Just ordered one. Cannot wait to get one.
I have no doubt that it will serve you well.
Now if you are wondering, the NR1711 has no problem whatsoever if you are watching movies or playing games at 4K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz YCbCr 4:2:2 signals (32Gbps) or anything below that so in most cases you are going to be absolutely fine. This means that the PS5 will work without any problems. In the rare case where the receiver accepts a 4K/120Hz RGB signal (8-bit, 10-bit, 12-bit), like from the Xbox Series X for example, this is when this problem will appear and the only current workaround is to connect your source device directly to your TV and from the eARC connection to the receiver.
To be honest this is a problem that should not happen in the first place and shows that somewhere there has been a major miscommunication between manufacturers but you should keep in mind that this will probably not affect you as much as you may think of. Right now this problem seems to affect all new AV receivers in 2020 including Denon, Marantz and Yamaha and we are still waiting for news about how they decide to handle this situation.
Great point, couldn't have said it better myself. They rushed the HDMI 2.1 silicon and it got them up the creek. Now they did release an adapter box to fix some signal issues that you can get by reaching out to them directly, it is a free fix. www.denon.com/en-us/hdmiadapter
Love the low-profile design and don't have space issues regarding placement. As such, what is the max size family room this 50W receiver can properly cover?
That is going to depend more on the size, and efficiency of your speakers.
Very good and informative review sir, do you think this unit could power inwall fronts and atmos overhead speakers? if so what Speakers would you recommend 🤔
For the most part yes. There are a lot of solid options for in wall speakers. To pair with this receiver I'd say Totem Acoustic. Depending on your budget that is.
Will it process a DSD signal from a SACD capable Blueray player via HDMI? I'm thinking about buying one.
It does DSD, but unfortunately not through HDMI.
The Marantz was always something on my radar but never pulled the trigger on them but now I'm thinking I should...after watching this video. I currently have a 5 year old Pioneer Elite SC-LX501 and I'm struggling with sound quality and it's driving me nuts...not sure if it's me or what....but I'm not happy with quality and low levels, dialogue, etc. I even think the phasing is off which not adjustable on this. Not sure if age has something to do with it. I'm assuming the Marantz NR1711 would be a huge step us. This is a struggle for most people I think especially because different streaming platforms produce different output qualities.
Also take a look at the newer Cinema 70S. Some nice improvements there too.
Hi,
Do you think this would be powerful enough to power the KEF LS50 meta?
Thanks!
Are you running them in stereo or in multichannel with other speakers?
@@GramophoneMD Mostly stereo speakers but having the option for surrounds, then why not. Nevertheless, i think that for a wider set of speakers this will be unsuficiently powerfull
@@mr_ion Grab at least a SR5015. It’ll give you seven channels, will run your speakers well enough for now, and allow to add a better amp later thanks to the pre-outs.
hello, its possible to connect an equalizer to this marantz? thanks
Theoretically yes, but I wouldn't recommend it when it has a good room correction system built in that applies EQ.
Not been negative, but for australian clients the VVR/4K120 and also 4K tv streaming is very very limited full stop, we only have 3 or 4 channels via normal tv which is in HD and its only 1080, even via netflix some do have HD and the TV ruku telstra set top box allows some 4K streaming and as far as TV 4K120 fps with VRR, none of the Marantz products support the X box x and ps5 systems yet, ( it says it on the spec's) have to wait for update via Marantz, so again do your research please if in australia, its ok for europe and the USA, as they have it at least a year or two before the rest of the world and the same with japan, they have everything updated before anyone else in the world, its like the TV/blue rays, the AV systems have not caught up with the TV tech yet etc. :) Same with Yamaha and denon, look it up, it state via firmware update for VVR 4K120fps etc. :)
How does the atmos
Excellent review
Hi, one question for the Bluetooth, does it have password protection against other that try to tap in during listening to your favorite music or watching movie.
Only advertising talking
I've just bought one, and everything works great except HEOS which is a real disappointment. Neither the app on my phone nor using the remote work as they should and I'm no novice when it comes to hi-fi, computers and networking.
HEOS has been a bit of a hit or miss until now. Though I'm happy to report that it got a big upgrade on the 2023 models. Much better.
i'll get the maximum video and audio performance including atmos and dolby vision by plugging the roku ultra and 4k/120hz sony tv into this receiver vs. plugging those into the sony 90j tv and having a less expensive atmos supported receiver such as the sony strdn1080? or is more about being able to use the receiver remote to control inputs?? that's how i've always had it with a non 4k tv.
Great review! Thank you
Thank you Glen!
Can I pair it with bose - 5.1-channel acoustimass 10 series?
How is Bass and Treble and seperation controlled?
Hi Mark, this receiver is now discontinued. You may want to look at the model NR-1510, or the Cinema 70S
Will this receiver power a bowers and wilkins 4 inch 100 watts satellite speakers I have 5 in total and the subwoofer? Or do you recommend another receiver, I only use it to watch sports and movies and will be hooking it up to a sony 75 inch tv. Thanks
It will work.
They want $ 1100.00 dollars for this amp now ! No way !!
What is the max room size this avr can cater to for a Atmos 5.1.2 set up, considering its low power of 50 watts?
Less about the room more about the speaker and its power requirements. But that said, yeah practically speaking it probably won't be ideal in larger rooms. If you have let's say a 26 x 16 room with the kind of speakers you ought to have in it, yeah you'll need more.
Last year i sold my denon dra 100 and i got nr1711 😁😁😁
What a power and sound from this marantz,very happy with purchase✌️
Love it Adrian, we're glad you are. happy with your new gear
@@GramophoneMDlast night i got Dali Opticon 2 mk 2 and mate and what a sound quality😱😱😱😱
Needs more than one full HDMI 2.1 input. And saying that TVs or sources wont need it is just WRONG. The PS5 and Xbox Series X, as well as PCs, will ALL take advantage of 4k at 120fps (same bandwidth needed as 8k), and there are several name brand TVs from Sony, LG, Samsung, Vizio and others that support the full standard as well. So far, Yamaha is the ONLY AVR company making a unit with 3 full HDMI 2.1 inputs.
It will be probably be another year or two before we see all ports on receivers like this go to 2.1.
I learned a lot about audio technology besides the receiver. Thanks for the great and informative video
Great to hear it, Crashed, thanks. We try to keep one eye on the product, and the other on talking about tech and product information in general
This was worth it at $800. Now it's $1000. Now not so much.
Does it have a inbuilt 4k chromecast ?
Unfortunately it does not have Chromecast.
Hi, active sub woofer ?or passive sub woofer ? which one should be used with this? Thanks in advance.
Either, but the thing to keep in mind with a passive sub is that it will need a separate amp. Receivers function only as preamps for subwoofers.
What bookshelf size speakers make sense?
can i use it with an 4k tv too??
Yes, resolutions are always backward compatible.
Why the annoying music?
Denon x1700h or this one?
Great review.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Is it possible to use this as a preamp? How is it connected?
It has RCA pre outs for the front left and right, for a zone 2, and for two subs.
Useless since you didn't power it up
What would you like to see?
@@GramophoneMD ,
The on screen interface
For me, this is a sales pitch and a unboxing. Not a review. For a review, I expect comments on your experiences having used it over some time.
Perhaps I can revisit this in a future video. For now I'll tell you that I've perosnally owned a Marantz slimline for years and every time I use it surprises me just how good that little thing can sound. You need to use it with speakers it can handle, but it really does impress. It's forgiving but not unclear.
I've had mine for a couple of months now and i'm very happy with it. That said I still use my Marantz PM7004 for two channel (vinyl/CD) playback. Y
I’m waiting on black friday
We've already got an early Black Friday special on the Marantz SR6014. $999, for a $500 savings! skybygramophone.com/products/marantz-sr6014-9-2-channel-network-a-v-receiver?_pos=1&_sid=8371ef9a9&_ss=r
Pioneer have just brought out their new AV receiver, which trumps this Marantz ? th-cam.com/video/_fQl-HQXgss/w-d-xo.html ,which i cant wait till it hit Australia, plus still not happy knowing that in Australia Netflix and other streaming services do not transmit in 4K UHDR, theres like only 5 movies on streaming services which has 4K HDR most are just HD, even Foxtel via Roku set top box's? Compared to the rest of the world, so its like your buying the equipment yet none of the sound will ever be herd via a 4K or 8K TV at all, through blue ray player ye sure ,but not through streaming services with one exemption Disney and maybe paramount ?
will the 50 watts power tower speakers?
Most likely yes, but it depends on the speaker. If they are four ohms, you'll need a more robust receiver like a Marantz SR series. Personally I'd recommend no lower than the SR6015.
Has Pre outs for the front channels. I would add an amplifier for the front. Receiver are fine for the rest of the channels.
@@marknelson801 which amplifier would you go with for the fronts?
@@TrevorTravers
Go with the Emotiva XPA-2 for the fronts. If you have more money and want a long term upgrade go Parasound. I have both and it really depends on you setup and money situation.
@@marknelson801 thanks, going all out on this one so I'll look into the parasound.
