For many who love movies, music, and games, the quest for the do-it-all AVR will end with the Marantz Cinema 50 9.4-channel surround receiver. This agile, flexible component will help give you what you need to make your favorite movies, music, and games become more clear, vibrant, and immersive.

Outputting 110 watts per channel, Cinema 50 will demonstrate how engaging sports, TV shows, and concerts can be when they're processed through a component that makes them leap off the screen with immersive clarity, dramatic punch, and nuanced detail. It handles a host of multichannel surround technologies, including DTS HD Master, DTS:X, Dolby Atmos, Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization, IMAX Enhanced, Auro-3D, and 360 Reality Audio. It also upscales 1080P/4K to 8K, and processes 8K Ultra HD video content. You'll see everything as the creators intended. All six of its HDMI inputs support 8K.

On the audio side, a discrete power amplifier, HDAM circuitry, and current feedback technology provide the heavy lifting to present your content in exceptional fidelity. Built-in support for most popular streaming services, an MM phono input, high-res 24-bit/192kHz and DSD 5.6MHz ability, HEOS multi-room streaming capability, Apple AirPlay 2, and AM/FM tuning all come standard. As does voice assistant compatibility in the form of Amazon Alexa, Google Voice Assistant, and Apple Homepod.

The 29.8-pound Cinema 50 also takes any worry about fitting in with your environment and matching with speakers. A suite of acoustic room-correction features include Audyssey MultEQ XT32, Audyssey Dynamic EQ/Dynamic Volume, and Audyssey LFC. Want Dirac Live? Cinema 50 has such upgradability. Flexible speaker arrangements and fine-tuning options invite you to tailor it to your exact specifications. Versatile connectivity that extends to no fewer than four subwoofer outputs abet gold-plated RCA terminals, a remote control, and gorgeous aesthetics in rounding out an AVR that will tempt you to use it every day of the year.

"[It is] nothing short of amazing what Marantz has done here with the Cinema 50, and whether you are on the market for a top-flight AV receiver or a home-theater processor, the Cinema 50 may be the best-value component in Marantz's new lineup of products."
