The new $2399.99 Marantz MM8003 eight channel power amplifier is the perfect complement to AV8003 pre-amplifier/processor. This amplifier is equipped both balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA input jacks as well as gold-plated speaker connectors, and with 140W per channel, it can easily drive a complete 7.1-channel speaker system. Remote control input and output jacks allow external component control along with output channel relay on/off and slow start to power-on mode.
