As with amplifiers, you cannot judge a CD player by analysing its specifications. You need to listen! And that is what Marantz does when designing their unsurpassed (SA)CD players. It all sounds easy, but only with a long experience in product design and an intimate understanding of music reproduction is it possible to create products like our CD players.

And you have to hear it to believe us!

CD5004

The CD5004 plays CD, CD-R and CD-RW discs as well as MP3 and WMA files. And perhaps more importantly, it helps reproduce high-quality audio. That’s because it incorporates high-quality audio components such as the famous CS4392 DAC as well as the Marantz-own HDAM-SA2.

It also includes customised components for sound tuning and a reliable CD transport mechanism. The Audio EX(clusive) mode further enhances sound quality by switching off functions, such as digital output and pitch control that are not in use.

The Auto Music Scan (AMS) quickly finds the music on the disc and the Quick Replay function repeats favourite passages.

In addition, high-grade gold-plated analogue outputs guarantee best connectivity. A well-defined headphone output, an easy to read display, and a remote control rounds off this excellent player.

 How do you improve a “What Hi-Fi Sound and Vision?” award-winner?

Easy: just continue the same painstaking philosophy of product dedication, keep even the tiniest of details at the top of mind, do everything possible to optimize mechanism and potent power supply, insist on premium digital-to-analogue conversion with CS4398, and ensure a mirrored symmetrical output stage with Marantz-own HDAM-SA2 amplifiers.

And when all that is done, check it all again and fine-tune with even more specially selected components. We also added a solid metal bottom-plate and centralised the CD mechanism’s location. That is how, for example, we virtually eliminated vibration.

In addition, the stable, oversized power supply feeds the digital and analogue circuitry of the player, where the high-quality CS4398 converts digital signals to analogue, this is then ‘pushed’ to the gold-plated synch outputs by Marantz’s own small signal amplifier, the HDAM-SA2.

Altogether the CD6004 is a match made in heaven for the music lover who wants nothing but the best performance at an attractive price.

And one more thing it’s also perfect for lovers of portable music, thanks to its iPod-digital connectivity.
