It's no big deal, I just like buttons better. I would imagine they sound very much the same and like you look forward to hearing from someone who has one. Maybe over Christmas break I will give my local dealer a call and see if he has one in stock. I want to audition the Monitor Audio Gold 10 speaker at his place anyway. |

biff henderson Unregistered guest | Bluestar, You have auditioned it? Any thoughts on how close it may come to its stated output? How about the characteristics of the amp? |

Since the release of the 400 models, Marantz now guarantees a minimum of 70% output with all channels running to their listed specs. Finally a company taking notice! |
