Based in the Kanagawa prefecture of Japan, the company decided to bring together the company’s tradition of building quality Marantz PM7000N amplifiers, modern demands for playback from digital sources and streaming services, as well as the ability to work without intermediaries with turntables. Let’s see what came of it.
I confess that I have a special relationship with the Marantz brand. About a quarter of a century ago, a CD player with the coveted logo became my first imported component in a stack of domestic equipment – moreover, bought for honest student jobs. Since then, the signature sound has evoked warm feelings in me – in particular, the pleasant musical signature of the amplifiers. Therefore, I showed genuine interest in the new Marantz PM7000N device, which can work as a classic class AB amplifier and has wide network capabilities.
A massive shielded toroidal transformer contributes to the heavy 10.8 kg amplifier design. Moreover, in order to reduce the overall power consumption, the developers decided to turn it off from the power circuit in sleep mode. While the amplifier is idle, the switching source (SMPS) is in standby mode – and as soon as the amplifier comes into operation, the SMPS unit turns off and transfers power to the transformer.

Like a number of other proprietary amplifiers, the PM7000N works with current feedback technology, which is characterized by limited impedance and, accordingly, a small phase shift. Among other things, this just provides a characteristic clear sound. The amplification traditionally uses branded “hyper-dynamic” modules (Hyper-Dynamic Amplifier Modules – HDAM) on discrete elements, which, in the interpretation of the company’s craftsmen, really proved to be more dynamic and more detailed than integrated op-amps. In this case, the HDAM-SA3 generation is used.
In network player mode, high-resolution recordings are processed by the AK4490 DAC, which supports files up to 24-bit/192 kHz, as well as DSD 2.8 MHz and 5.6 MHz.
Perhaps you know the feeling when the desire for convenience and compactness votes for an integrated device, and theory objects that a set of separate specialized devices will do it better – also because the various electronic components do not interfere with each other with interference and interference. And even the widespread shielding of digital circuits does not completely solve the problem.
The creators of the PM7000N have also been living in the world for many years and foresaw these torments for potential users, and therefore they equipped the amplifier with several ways to neutralize “extra parts” at once. First of all, these are three separate Pure Modes, which make it possible to disable network services, USB-A blocks, Wi-Fi, and/or Bluetooth. As they say, while one is working, the other – do not interfere. This is especially true when playing analog sources – at least the same vinyl. Well, for true purists, the Marantz Source Direct function is provided, which turns off the tone block.
We are not afraid of difficulties
Dynaudio Evoke 50 floor-standing three-way speakers were entrusted to demonstrate the work of the PM7000N – and the choice was not accidental. These very high-quality acoustics are demanding on amplifiers and not quite easy to “build up”, so there is an opportunity to interrogate a beginner with passion. However, I was assured that the PM7000N in this setup behaves even more cheerfully than the PM8006 model and unleashes the dynamics of the speakers without any problems.
Actually, this is another message of the developers: the versatility of the new amplifier should be manifested not only in a wide range of sources and connection paths but also in the ability to work with a large list of acoustics of a comparable class. Thus, in their opinion, potential buyers are freed from the torment of careful selection of components – in most cases, the result will be more than good. In a word, the ” post-Ishivatov ” concept includes the preservation of the corporate style with an increase in power and expansion of opportunities. By the way, if you need to build a triphonic system, then the PM7000N has a separate output for an active subwoofer.
The speakers were connected to the amplifier with a thick and weighty Transparent Ultra SC speaker cable with “banana” connectors (more than twice as expensive as the test subject itself) using massive Marantz SPKT-1 + brass terminals, which are generously coated with silver for better contact.
A Marantz SA-KI Ruby SACD/CD player by Ken Ishawata (with the artist’s signature) was connected to the PM7000N with a Transparent Ultra RCA cable – and again I can’t help but say that the price of the cord this time is almost equal to the cost of the amplifier.

A TEAC TN-4D turntable was also connected with the same cable. Against the backdrop of a wild celebration of digital technology, the developers have not forgotten the adherents of the good old vinyl, having provided the PM7000N with a built-in phono stage. A feature of this block was the presence of field-effect transistors (FET) in the input stage, which simplified the circuit by eliminating the isolation transistors and improved the signal-to-noise ratio. And all this splendor was fed through the PS Audio Dectet Power Center surge protector.

The Marantz PM7000N is the company’s first advanced networking amplifier to feature HEOS technology from the Denon brand (affiliated with D&M Holdings). Through it, wireless control of the amplifier and devices connected to it is carried out. First of all, it makes it possible to get rid of a scattering of consoles and makes the process more convenient and clearer.
It took just a few minutes to download the HEOS control program from the mobile application store, register in it, and connect to the local Wi-Fi network (the device operates in the 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz bands), and now I see the Marantz PM7000N amplifier itself in the menu, as well as the entire list of possible actions and settings. HEOS itself loads pictures – “stamps” for playing albums. Also, track information is duplicated on a large and well-read amplifier display.
In the HEOS settings menu, I found the Pure Direct virtual switch and tried the feature with a variety of sources, starting with a USB stick. Frankly, the effect turned out to be rather esoteric – that is, it seemed to me that when this mode was turned on, the sound became a little clearer and more detailed. And whether it was in fact or self-hypnosis worked – I can’t say.

The Marantz PM7000N is the company’s first advanced networking amplifier to feature HEOS technology from the Denon brand (affiliated with D&M Holdings).

First of all, it makes it possible to get rid of a scattering of consoles and makes the process more convenient and clearer.
It took just a few minutes to download the HEOS control program from the mobile application store, register in it, and connect to the local Wi-Fi network (the device operates in the 2.4 GHz / 5 GHz bands), and now I see the Marantz PM7000N amplifier itself in the menu, as well as the entire list of possible actions and settings. HEOS itself loads pictures – “stamps” for playing albums. Also, track information is duplicated on a large and well-read amplifier display.
In the HEOS settings menu, I found the Pure Direct virtual switch and tried the feature with a variety of sources, starting with a USB stick. Frankly, the effect turned out to be rather esoteric – that is, it seemed to me that when this mode was turned on, the sound became a little clearer and more detailed. And whether it was in fact or self-hypnosis worked – I can’t say.
Another observation: when Pure Direct was turned on, there was also no noticeable difference between playback from the USB input, CD player, and turntable (Phono input). It can be assumed that the hypothetical interference was below the capabilities of the acoustics or my hearing threshold (or even both).
On the eve of the test, I caught a cold and was hoarse, and therefore began to worry about whether I could control the amplifier using the voice services of Google Assistant, Apple Siri, and even Amazon Alexa. But forgive me, such a desire did not even arise. Do not yell at me, in fact, through loud music, demanding to change the volume, pause the track, or turn on the next track, when this can be done with a light touch of the finger. Just know that if you suddenly knead the dough or wind the yarn, you can operate the device without your hands.
Also, I did not test the connection via AirPlay 2 and Bluetooth. All compatible devices connect great, but listening to low-res files with such a serious setup is like hunting woodcocks with a Shilka anti-aircraft gun. However, if more than expected, such a need arises, then the PM7000N will provide it to you in the best possible way.
Network or disks?
It is important for me that the amplifier reads digital streams from streaming services – in particular, the popular Tidal (I myself have only stopped on it), Deezer, Spotify, Amazon Music, and a number of others. Such services allow me to get acquainted with the artist or album before buying or just fill the background with music of fairly good quality.
In order for Tidal to admit me to honestly paid content, I had to introduce myself to the HEOS program as a “Turkish citizen”. Alas, the proposed interface is a significantly inferior inconvenience to the “native” Tidal program – you have to do a lot of step-by-step movements back and forth, awkwardly opening unnecessary menu items every second. There is a reason for the representatives of the company to once again kick the software developers.
But there are no complaints about the submission of streaming content itself. I have already discovered that the sound of Tidal is highly dependent on the equipment, and a variant close to the ideal was met only once when the network player alone costs one and a half times more than today’s setup.
Now PM7000N worked well. Queen’s complex 1974 composition “Fairy Feller’s Master-Stroke”, inspired by artist Richard Dadd’s painting of the same name (which he painted in London’s Bedlam Psychiatric Hospital), is just as crazy and, to boot, poorly recorded from the start. Not all equipment will understand this early polyphony from Freddie. But this time, even taking a song from a network service, the amplifier decomposed this bunch of sounds into a distinct stage and legible voices with instruments. As a result, it turned out, albeit not the most ideal performance, but still, it could be listened to with pleasure, not pain.
And if you start with Tidal artists who are kind to the quality of the recording – for example, Dire Straits – then the picture will come out completely pacifying. The composition “Money for Nothing” sounded refined, clear, and smooth – no faults.
You can play your own high-res from an external server using a Wi-Fi router and the same HEOS control system. But I did it easier – I just inserted a USB flash drive into the connector on the back of the amplifier, and HEOS immediately saw it and offered to play content by folders, artists, or albums.
Well, since they said that the amplifier is capable of controlling complex speakers, then hold on – I deliberately prepared several “uncomfortable” compositions with which a number of setups had difficulties. I’ll start with a vinyl digitization of the composition “Rock! Rock! (Till You Drop)” Def Leppard, which often sounds a little smeared. But now Joe Elliott’s voice was finally coming through from behind the guitars, and the drum kit was hammering out distinctly and firmly as if driving in nails. Quite a decent and legible presentation. Maybe it would be nice to add a bit of the former “Ishivatov” brilliance here because the current interpretation turned out to be more neutral, but this is a debatable issue.
In the massive and dense composition of “Uprising” Muse, the lows were drawn, and for once they did not stray into a mess, and Matthew Bellamy’s vocals seemed to separate and soar above them. An interesting interpretation – from my point of view, it is certainly accepted. Before listening, I was wary of the decision to use the AK4490 DAC in the amplifier, which in a number of devices seemed to me too bright and harsh. But the well-known saying “it’s not the DAC that matters, but the binding” is true, and the developers managed to make the Asahi Kasei chip sound in unison with the brand’s smooth melody.
Now it’s time to listen to the heavy hodgepodge of guitars, drums, and pulsating electronics in Rammstein’s “Radio”. The amplifier paired with the speakers cleared the composition of the rumble, separated the instruments, and clearly marked the vocals. The control of the acoustics did not cause any complaints, and the low frequencies, which perceptibly vibrated the massive chair under me, became quite restrained and subdued.

The control of the acoustics did not cause any complaints, and the low frequencies, which perceptibly vibrated the massive chair under me, became quite restrained and subdued.
And now I confess to something. From the group Yello, which I respect, I very rarely include the song “Oh Yeah” in the tests, which often breaks into a wheeze on the bottoms, or even completely indecent sounds – why upset the owners of the equipment? This time, the amplifier with acoustics worked to the brink: nothing wheezed from below, in the rest of the range it sounded more than decent. I won’t say that I experienced audiophile delight, but you can listen – and even with pleasure.
You know, there are moments when you finally manage to fully hear a composition for the first time – and this does not always depend on the price and class of the equipment, but more on the “resonance” with your own perception. The song “Toska” by the St. Petersburg group “The Stolen Sun” again showed detailed instruments, rounded articulated sounds of the bass guitar, and above them – the aching voice of Jeff (Evgeny Anisimov). And this is by far the best interpretation that coincided with my vision of how it should sound.
And now let’s hear how high-res are perceived in the processing of a proprietary CD player from SACDs. JSBach’s “Toccata & Fuge” by Cameron Carpenter showed the setup’s ability to sound distinctly across the widest dynamic range. The powerful voice of the organ passes through you like an X-ray, and its smallest nuances and overtones are felt.
The jazz compositions “Take Four” and “Caravan” from the disc “Alexey Kurochkin’s “Among Friends” (Butman Music) demonstrated an unusually lively, detailed, and natural presentation of instruments, and at the same time the fact that the PM7000N device is, first of all, a good amplifier, and all its functions of a digital player, although they look very decent, are still secondary and inferior to the real master in the face of the Marantz SA-KI Ruby from a different price and musical category.
The TEAC TN-4D turntable with a Sumiko Oyster MM cartridge, when using the built-in phono stage in the PM7000N, also could not beat the CD player – also different weight (price) categories. Although the sound, in general, did not cause any complaints. The disc of violinist David Garrett (aka German David Christian Bongartz), known for his ability to turn any classical work into sweet pop, played cheerfully and cleanly. But, I think, the amplifier has enough potential to properly make the player of a higher class sound with an external phono stage.
Conclusion
The Marantz brand tries to keep up with the times but does not forget about traditions. The PM7000N amplifier has retained the signature sound signature, for which the company’s products are appreciated by the followers. At the same time, he became a little more neutral and smoother, as well as more confident when working with a wide list of acoustics. Extended playback capabilities for popular digital formats and content from streaming services will help you do without additional hardware units. Such a confident evolution seems natural and, most importantly, successfully implemented.
