Advantages: Excellent sound, excellent price Disadvantages: None really I've owned this amplifier for about one year now. Sold my Marantz PM4001 for even more money that I got for since I had my eyes on it's bigger brother after reading so many positive reviews pretty much everywhere. They were connected to a pair of Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 speakers and a Marantz CD5001 CD player that did very well with the PM4001. I could not have been happier with the upgrade; the sound is punchier with a bigger, more open bass and sweet highs and the vocals that were already very good improved and gained more clarity. Gives out an excellent stereo image and sound stage. I just had to listen to my whole collection all over again! Just listen to Pearl Jam's "Black" or to Ben Fold's piano or even to Strunz and Farahs guitars and you will see know what I'm talking about. Was considering upgrading the speakers as well but the whole thing just sounds so damn good that it makes me doubt the sanity of the investment... On the technical side, it keeps the same looks, knobs and connections as the PM4001 but the later are now gold plated, with heavy duty gold plated speaker terminals and copper chassis screws. It is also quite heavier due to the improved power supply with a large toroidal transformer that is supposed to be better at supplying current when in high demand. Finally it comes with a remote which is very similar to the PM4001 with its brushed aluminum front that is easy to use and can be used to operate other Marantz equipments. Summary: Just grab one, you won't regret the choice!
