Supporting Dolby Atmos, DTS:X and IMAX Enhanced, Marantz's SR6014 is an AVR designed for film fanatics. Its 9 x 110W discrete amplifier architecture offers the flexibility to drive speaker systems including 5.1.4 and 7.1.2, while 11-channel processing means it can be partnered with additional amplification for an even more immersive experience. Room EQ, via Audyssey's flagship MultEQ XT32 calibration system, fine-tunes its performance to suit your setup.

In use, the SR6014 delivers best-in-class multichannel magic, with a sound that's dynamic and gutsy, but precise and musical too. We rated it 
'a glorious performer.' And it's not just intended for movie night either.
