Marantz Model 10 – Reference Integrated Amplifier

Marantz Model 10 Integrated Amp

Highlights & Key Technologies

Inspired by our past, engineered for our future
MODEL 10 is the new reference in amplifier design and the most powerful and finest sounding integrated amplifier Marantz has ever made.

Best of the Best
From the triple-layer aluminum chassis with copper shielding to entirely original multi-layer PCBs, isolated sub-enclosures, and all new HDAM modules, MODEL 10 is the product of decades of expertise in audio engineering, setting a new benchmark with meticulous construction, state-of-the art technologies, and elegant design.

Sound Master Tuned
MODEL10 retains the sonic Marantz signatures of warmth, spaciousness, and resolution. However, advances in design and precise tuning by the Sound Master result in the purest expression of the Marantz sound ever. As a result, the listener experiences more detail, lower distortion, and higher dynamic range than ever before.

Iconic Details Reimangined for Tomorrow
Designed with a brushed aluminum front, MODEL 10 is encased in a copper-plated, triple-layered chassis with illuminated mesh cover grille. Lighting inside the amplifier showcases the circuit boards, high-quality components, and specially designed transformer case. In a nod to the Marantz design DNA, MODEL10’s porthole houses a HD TFT Color Display for volume and input selection, along with a digital level meter that behaves like vintage analog meters.

Crafted in Shirakawa
MODEL 10 was conceived and engineered in our facilities in Shirakawa, Japan to deliver the highest performance.

Perfectly Matched Preamp
LINK 10n is a highly versatile and fully featured high-end streaming preamplifier. Its advanced functionality makes it the ideal choice for those looking for a flexible, high-performance component for their reference audio system.

Perfectly Matched SACD Player
Featuring a proprietary SACDM-3 disc transport, Marantz Musical Filtering, and next-generation HDAM circuitry, SACD 10 offers high-resolution audio support for external source components and includes additional digital input provision for other sources.
