Marantz PM6006 review

Comparing Marantz PM6006 vs Yamaha R-N602 we can see the differences in their power output. Yamaha has 80W, while PM6006 can offer two times less at the same 8-ohm load. The Marantz PM6006 circuit integrates HDAM SA2 and HDAM SA3 discrete amplifier modules. The changes affected the output section, which now provides higher peak currents. As a result, the sound became more accurate, detailed and dynamic. The amplifier is equipped with selected components. The large toroidal transformer of the power supply has a low impedance and is placed in a shielding casing. The PSU also has high-current capacitors and ultra-fast Schottky diodes. Marantz PM6006
