  • Abstract:  Although the compact disc is now 27 years old, Super-Audio CD (SACD) is still a relative youngster, celebrating its 10th birthday this year. Even as sales of redbook CDs have plummeted through the decade and digital downloads have skyrocketed, against ...

  • I truly enjoyed having the Marantz SA8003 in my system. It may be the best CD player I’ve ever heard, given its excellent rendition of detail without sounding strident, the depth and width of the soundstage, and the relative "blackness" of the backg...

  • sIf you've read this far, I assume you are a serious audio enthusiast, and not in the vast majority of Americans who would probably consider a $1000 CD player an obscene extravagance (I keep referring to the SA8003 as a $1K CD player. It actually comes...

  • Very good detail, always there but never forced or isolated
  • Slightly less assured with SACD than with CD . Lacks precision
  • Classic Marantz sound is a pleasure and iPod compatibility adds to the attraction...

  • Abstract:  Modern audio players face many challenges and Marantz’s SA8003 meets them all. It plays CDs and the stereo tracks of SACDs. It handles MP3, AAC or WMA files via an advanced USB port, which can even control an iPod directly. Based on the successful SA70...

  • Excellent low bass and admirably clean treble and midrange, An unusually even-handed approach to different musical styles, USB input a nifty plus

  • Abstract:  Selbstredend anerkennt der SA 8003 die CD-Wiedergabe als oberste Pflicht. Das hindert ihn aber nicht daran, sich für eine ganze Reihe anderer Formate zu interessieren. So dürfen die Scheiben gerne auch MP3- und SACD-Musik mitbringen. Via Front-USB-Buc...
