Marantz

Most people enjoy music. But some people are passionate about it. So are we! Music should be reproduced - in our opinion - exactly the way the artist intended, because nothing - absolutely nothing - should get in the way of the music. That's why we at Marantz have only one philosophy: "Because Music Matters."

The philosophy behind the unique Marantz sound

We know that true hi-fi is about being able to reproduce the magic of a performance. It’s about experiencing music just as the artist intended, even in the cinema. It is music that delivers the ecstasy and agony of a film’s story. To Marantz, perfect specifications and technical accomplishment count for nothing unless a product can unlock the power, the excitement and the emotion of music.

Our heritage of technical excellence means we can create components with the ability to communicate the scale, timbre, pitch and dynamics in fact, the very essence of a recording.

Music is enchanting, and we strive to ensure that the carrier of the music looks and feels as good as it sounds. Every component we produce is technically and cosmetically designed to complement the lifestyle of the listener.

We pride ourselves on applying these principles to all of our products. Each and every one of our home entertainment components is capable of reproducing the purest, most realistic music in your home.

We know that true hi-fi is about being able to reproduce the magic of a performance – it’s about experiencing music just as the artist intended.

Marantz is one of todays best known hi-fi and home cinema companies.

It was founded by soul B. marantz - a music, lover, musician and photographer.
