BUILD QUALITY/DESIGN: The build quality of the M-CR610 is fine, but those old enough to remember the 1980s Marantz dark brown metal/heavy plastic devices may be slightly disappointed. This one's not quite up to the very high standard of those earlier units. This new design is great for sitting on a bookshelf but not so likely to withstand the wear and tear of being lugged around (not that you'd want to). Whilst it's not a deal-breaker, I'm not a massive fan of piano black finish either - too vulnerable to fingerprints and scratchmarks (I prefer matte black) but, tucked away in a corner (as mine is) - you don't really notice it. Speaking of dark corners: the buttons (black-on-black) can be difficult to see - it's a pity they're not backlit. The OLED display, though not colour, is very clear and has brightness settings or can be turned off completely if required. The remote control is of a fairly standard design/decent quality and will be required to access all of the Marantz's functions.
*UPDATE Feb 2015* - Since posting this review I experienced a problem with the remote not working - it became inactive without warning. Fortunately the problem was corrected by doing a factory reset (explained in the instructions). Not sure if this is going to be a recurring glitch (hope not) but I was glad the reset fixed it as I really didn't want to have to take it back.
SET-UP: OK for anyone who's use to setting up audio equipment and is computer-literate. Not hard, but not one for the "plug-and-play" generation either. Most people will suss it out...it took me about half an hour to work out what went in where and actually get a CD playing. The quick set-up manual is a waste of paper: given that the set-up isn't especially easy, I would imagine many people, me included, would want to get the full set-up out of the way. The quick start guide doesn't even tell you where to plug the radio antenna in. Full set up is described in the manual...which is on CD only, so - laptop at the ready before you get started.
USE
Post-set-up, less technical family members should, without too much training, be able to use the unit's basic features without too much trouble. The M-CR610 does a lot and will take some time to explore its additional functions. You would hope that a read of the instruction might help but sadly the full instructions, though not bad, are not in the same league as those I've used for Roberts products of similar specification (and it doesn't help that there's no paper copy - isn't paper supposed to be more environmentally friendly than CDs?).
SELECTED/MAIN FUNCTIONS:
There is a huge variety of functions on the Marantz M-CR610 and I suspect what you use will depend on what other Wi-Fi gadgets you have (an iPhone, for example, which I don't own):
1. Amp
There are aux inputs for 2 other devices (in my case BluRay player and turntable) - a third might have been nice. Also it lacks a 3.5mm stereo input jack which can be handy for connecting odd devices to - not fatal, but given the lack of Bluetooth this might have been a nice touch. Also the lack of an actual volume knob (the Marantz just has arrow buttons for volume control) I found a little disorientating at first.
2. CD Player
Easy to use if a little bit basic in operation - the design/functionality is essentially unchanged from the CD players of 30 years ago. Given this device's wi-fi capability, some sort of Gracenote (for example) track-identifier software might have been nice? After all the track titles show when you stream music, so why can't it recognise CD track titles?
3. Streaming Music
You can use the Marantz to find and play music stored on your PC or smartphone. Some devices, e.g. a Windows PC will also perform that function in reverse i.e. you can select a track or album on Windows Media Player and play it through the M-CR610 - it will even switch the M-CR610 on for you.
4. Internet Music
The Marantz is designed to work with Spotify Premium (
Setup to internet was very quick, and DAB and Internet radio stations a doddle to find. Within ten minutes of setup, I was listening to a Louisiana bluegrass station and a Mexican folk station, just for "lols".
I'll probably think about cabling from the router to the unit, but I've only had one small wifi drop in a whole weekend of streaming.
Talking of streaming, Spotify was equally easy to set up but (and here's the elephant in the room), you'll only really get the best from Spotify if you use the Marantz app, and the app is pretty weak. True, you can access playlists, search for artists and songs, adjust volume etc, but this all happens painfully slowly. When you search, the results just list songs, no artist, nor which version of a song it might be. I've lost count already of the number of times I've encountered a "karaoke" or "alternative artist" version of a song I've searched for. Added to that, the app crashes every half hour or so and takes an eternity to re-locate the Marantz device (five to ten minutes minimum). It appears as though the app was launched as a beta version and no real effort at refinement or improvement has taken place since: the app display even looks quaintly old fashioned.
So, the M-CR610 is a fine piece of kit, sounds amazing and easy to use. However, the app that you need to get the best from Spotify is a bit pants. We've tried it on Android, iPhone and iPad and it's the same on all of them.
Sadly, knocking one star off for this, but overall very pleased.
The unit is easy to setup.....it virtually does it itself once plugged in! However, the system then needs to be fine tuned.
Beware of the automatic "firmware" update.....read what other reviewers have said about this, as it can corrupt the system (Marantz accept no responsibility for this....view their website).The CR610 has an impressive reception and can pick up DAB radio (once the ariel is attached!) well. The other facility is to stream Internet radio from a WI-FI connection to your router.....brilliant.
Another point to beware of is that when you stream your music from your PC, the CR610 will pick up all sources e.g Windows Media, ITunes Library and Amazon Player etc. so this makes life difficult! Another point to note it will not (as far as I am aware stream "Purchased" music from ITunes...a real pain. You can play from your PC via AirPlay but this is not the same as pulling the information from the music server (the PC).
Still early days yet, but will update more as things progress.
UPDATE: 16/12/15
The user interface on this product is absolutely "pants". When streaming music from your server, the CR610 picks everything up by track, name/artist. It will not sort the information into "Album" ......crazy!!
The unit is well built and well finished, but I agree with other reviewers in that it deserved an all-metal body, as it would add a more premium look and feel to the product, not to mention that it would be more befitting of the price tag... Setup was very easy. Upon powering for the first time, it found my WiFi network and shortly after asked to upgrade the firmware. Then it was all a matter of connecting the speakers and let it play. This unit truly excels as a network player; it plays very well in a variety of formats and there's no fuss changing the sources - never need to press more than two buttons. Actually, you can use it sole as a network/cd/radio player, connecting to a higher quality amp through the pre-outs (I don't plan to use the pre-outs as I'm really satisfied with the unit's amp, but it is always nice to have a growth option).
Now, if you buy this unit or plan to hear it, do yourself a favor: play some nice (i.e. well mastered) hi-res files trough it. Hi-res music is noticeably better (crispier, fuller and with far more detail) than regular CD to my ears and definitely won my heart for this unit, as I never imagined that such a modest system could deliver so good a sound when playing high quality source-files.
In my view the only downsides are the already mentioned plastic body (albeit a good quality plastic) and the relative scarcity of digital inputs (just one and I'd like to see at least one more). On balance, thought, these are minor flaws, especially considering that one buys such units for music playing and the Marantz plays very well, I dare say with a sound quality markedly above it's price tag.
Hughes delivered this next day which was a real bonus and was free P&P. I rate the Marantz 5* and would advise buying one if you need a one box low cost Audiophile unit.
Straight out of the box it was nice and hefty, although it was a plastic casing (I went for the all black model), although I was aware of this having been for a demo in my local store (where I bought it from - there don't seem to be any savings to be had on this anywhere!), I don't understand why they didn't make it with the same metal finish as the CR603. Set-up was easy - just through the 'WPS' function on my router and it was well away, connecting to my favorite radio stations was a breeze. DAB was easy and picked-up as many stations as any of the other radios in the house.
I've listened to a lot of Radio 4 / 5 on DAB and gone through quite a lot of CDs such as Radiohead's The Bends, Rage Against the Machine, Nick Cave's Murder Ballads, Alt J's An Awesome Wave and some old dance vinyl. All sound fantastic, lots of clarity depth and a sound that I like. I also popped some MP3's on a USB - again they sounded really good.
I have them connected to a pair of Q Acoustics 2010i speakers (which I have borrowed from a friend to see if I like them) and the sound is blissful. I think I will go for a pair of these as they provide more than enough for what I need, it is a fairly small room. No doubt some will rather go for more high-end speakers - I suggest demo'ing the set-up that you're considering going for.
Pros:
Great functionality and features
Wi-fi works really well - no drop-outs in a week of use!
Sounds great on lots of different music / speech radio
Good power
Occupies only a little space - a 'pocket dynamo'!
Cons
Plastic finish
Not sure about the App, but it is OK.
All in all, think this is a fantastic hifi and an all-round performer. It's well worth getting a demonstration to see for yourself if this is the sort of thing you are looking for. This is a fantastic buy!
This leaves me with a question: does Amazon talk unto Amazon? When the product is the same: why is the price different?
So I wait for tomorrow with baited breath (today being 2 January). Thank you Amazon UK but please explain to your colleagues that the game they are playing is not in any way fair!
By the way I have given the product 5 stars on the strength of reviews and this purchase experience. Once I have the product in my hot little hands I'll review that too....
Update on lousy delivery
Oh dear. I paid extra to have the Maranz delivered the next day in Germany. Amazon failed. Now it is likely to arrive (if I believe UPS!) on 7th not 3rd!!!!!!! I took this up with Amazon and yes got the delivery costs refunded but their agent did not seem to understand the concept of customer satisfaction. Sigh. I quote "We send out over 1 million packages a day and sometimes errors like this are unavoidable if we wish to keep up a fast system." and "In my experience the item will arrive only a day or so late." to which I reply: "Only a day or two late" sadly does not spell customer satisfaction however hard you mix the letters.
Keep watching this space - me I am trapped at home waiting for something I needed yesterday...........
This is the first Hi-Fi I have bought for over 25 years, having just junked a a very much larger separates system from the 1980s. I have however kept my Mission Cyrus 780 speakers (and Dual CS 505-4 turntable - pre-amp ordered).
On CD and DAB these speakers (which are not bi-wired, but are on 4.3mm oxygen-free copper 326 strand studio grade cables) sound suberb, particularly at medium to higher volumes. Internet radio stations vary enormously in quality - but there are a few very good ones out there, and some of these, such as Venice's Classical channel sound as good as CD or DAB. The real surprise was being able to select tunes on my home PC Media Player from the M-CR610.
I have tried to push challenging choral and orchestral works such as Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, Basil Poledouris's Conan The Barbarian and Brahms' Requiem through the CD, and the M-CR610 has delivered with aplomb. Thin Lizzy tracks such as Whiskey in the Jar really sing out with suberb detail, but again, are better at higher volume settings.
Recommended.
Update 14/11
I spoke to Marantz technical support, and they talked me through a reset process, which I did. Lost my settings by Remote App now working. Great customer service from Marantz.
