Marantz Model 10 Reference Integrated Amplifier

MODEL 10

Reference Integrated Amplifier

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.

The result of countless hours of work by our dedicated team of engineers in Shirakawa, Japan, MODEL 10 is the new reference in amplifier design, with a completely new external and internal design architecture. Each unit is individually sound tuned, features innovative HDAM SA-3 amplifier modules, and a newly designed dual-mono symmetrical amplifier topology.

Engineered to eliminate interference, MODEL 10 boasts complete separation of left-to right, front-to-back and top-to-bottom internal structures, delivering the lowest-ever distortion and widest dynamic range of any amplifier in Marantz history. Housed in a beautifully designed, superbly crafted package, MODEL 10 stands ready to surpass standards and expectations alike to provide the consummate listening experience.

The 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.

 

The Marantz signature sound

The Marantz signature sound is synonymous with texture, nuance, and authenticity. For decades, generations of Sound Masters have forged state-of-the-art audio components embraced by music lovers and critical listeners around the world. It’s a sound like no other.

 

Crafted in Shirakawa

The 10 Series was conceived and engineered in our facilities in Shirakawa, Japan where the spirit of Kaizen is at the heart of each and every innovative technology. Only premium Marantz products are built here, where close collaboration between our highly experienced engineering team results in the highest performance. Products built here simply could not be built elsewhere.

 

Sound Master Tuned

MODEL 10 retains the Marantz sonic signature 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 Reimagined for Tomorrow

Designed with a brushed aluminum control surface, 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 high-resolution full color OLED display for volume and input selection, along with a digital VU meter that behaves like vintage analog meters.

 

Marantz Innovative Technology

MODEL 10 sets a new standard in reference audio with its newly designed dual-mono symmetrical amplifier topology. Its switching amplifiers with Purifi technology, exclusively engineered to a unique Marantz layout and built in-house in Shirakawa, boast power increased to 250 WPC (8Ω) and 500 WPC (4Ω) with a peak current up to 30A for greater dynamic range and more punch and drive.

 

Lowest Distortion and Widest Range

Engineered to eliminate interference, MODEL 10 boasts complete separation of left-to right, front-to-back and top-to-bottom internal structures and is truly balanced input-to-output. Distortion is dramatically reduced compared to any previous Marantz amplifier, while peak current drive is significantly increased. As a result, listeners can enjoy the most potent integrated amplifier that Marantz has ever built.

 

Phono MM/MC with impedance select

MODEL 10’s MM/MC phono stage features selectable load impedance for compatibility with a wide range of cartridges. Furthermore, the use of HDAM technology instead of traditional components means that this phono stage surpasses the performance of many stand-alone phono stages.

 

Elegant User interface

MODEL 10’s user interface is reminiscent of Marantz classics such as the MODEL 9 with its iconic porthole, now updated with a high-resolution color display that can be switched to show machined aluminum knobs with a spun finish and have a heavy well-damped feel. The heavy aluminum-faced remote can control all 10 Series products.

 

 

Experience the Most Musical Sound Ever

MODEL 10 has been expertly crafted, diligently engineered and precisely tuned to deliver the Most Musical Sound ever, so listeners can immerse themselves in music like never before.

 

A New Reference in Audio Technology

MODEL 10’s switching amplifiers with Purifi technology are exclusively engineered to a unique Marantz layout and built in-house in Shirakawa. They are the product of years of incremental improvements in engineering expertise.

 

The most powerful integrated amplifier we have ever made

MODEL 10’s switching amplifiers with Purifi technology boast 250 WPC (8Ω) and 500 WPC (4Ω) with a peak current up to 30A for greater dynamic range and more punch and drive.

 

HD full-colour OLED display

MODEL 10 features a large high-resolution full-colour OLED display for a beautiful user interface and intuitive operation.

 

Fully Balanced Design

MODEL 10 is fully balanced from input to output. Connectivity options include balanced inputs, but even the single-end inputs are converted to balanced for peak performance.

 

Iconic Details Reimagined for Tomorrow

MODEL 10 is designed with a brushed aluminum front face with illuminated mesh top cover grille. Lighting inside the amplifier showcases the copper-plated chassis, circuit boards, and sound quality components.
