Marantz
Blu-ray players
Marantz BD8002
The Marantz BD8002 Blu-ray player delivers great Blu-ray pictures, but it isn't quite the complete machine
Hi-fi amplifiers
Marantz PM5003
Superior product in some ways, but the PM5003 lacks the cohesion to trouble the class leaders
CD players
Marantz SA-11S2
Thoroughly likeable in most ways and admirable in some, but a lack of bottom-end rigour hampers the big Marantz
CD players
Marantz CD5003
Marantz has replaced its CD5001 with the CD5003, a subtle but effective upgrade of the original player in a sharp new set of clothes
Soundbars
Marantz ES7001
Impressive power, scale and extension from a one-box surround sound system, even without a subwoofer
Home cinema amplifiers
Marantz SR8002
Power and panache, rest assured the SR8002 is as well equipped as most people will ever need
iPod docks etc
Marantz IS201
A great-sounding dock with plenty of connectivity, but not quite the best in class
Projectors
Marantz VP-15S1
With its punchy picture, ease of set-up, sharp edges and lack of noise, this Marantz is an obvious five-star buy
