Marantz SR6014 review

In home theater systems, the Marantz SR6014 supports many multidimensional audio formats, including IMAX Enhanced, Dolby Atmos, DTS: X, and DTS Virtual: X. It develops 185 W per channel at 6 Ohm load. The SR6014 processor can process up to 11.2 channels, so when using an external stereo amplifier in combination with the internal 9 gain channels, it becomes possible to completely immerse yourself in a 7.2.4 or 5.2.6-channel sound field. In addition, the Marantz SR6014 and SR5014 AV receivers are equipped with Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization virtual top channel technology to create the impression of a three-dimensional sound field without having to install top speakers. Listeners can set up to seven channels for a 7.1-channel speaker set, while Height Virtualization technology adds virtual ceiling effects. Marantz SR6014
