Marantz Model M1 Wireless Streaming Amplifier
Marantz wants to say goodbye to the soundbar with the M1 wireless streaming amplifier. Measuring just over nine inches wide and three inches tall, the compact M1 serves as the center of a hi-fi setup. Using the HEOS app, users can access Tidal and Roon, with support for Bluetooth, Spotify Connect, and AirPlay2. A line-level RCA input provides connectivity for legacy media like cassette players or turntables, with an eARC HDMI input for TV audio. The 2.1 channel system puts out 100 watts with support for up to 24-bit/192kHz audio with an audiophile-grade .005 total harmonic distortion. The M1 is available now.
