MARANTZ CD6003 CD PLAYER WITH REMOTE & MANUAL. 
USB/DIGITAL/ANALOGUE ETC. 
WORKS & SOUNDS GREAT.


Marantz CD6003 High-Fidelity CD Player with Remote and Manual. 

This Marantz CD6003 CD Player has had very little use as I'm mainly a record listener & is a high-quality standalone CD player designed for audiophiles and music lovers who want detailed, refined playback from their compact disc collection. It supports playback of standard audio CDs as well as CD-R and CD-RW discs, and can also play MP3, WMA and AAC files burned onto discs for added versatility. Internally it features a robust oversized power supply and a high-performance CS4398 digital-to-analogue converter (DAC) paired with Marantz’s proprietary HDAM-SA2 analogue stage, delivering clear, detailed sound with low distortion and a wide dynamic range.

Pre-owned, in great condition & in full working order, with working remote (batteries needed), manual (back page missing due to a coffee spillage!) & power lead. Barely any signs of wear, other than a couple of tiny spots on the remote.

You are welcome to collect, where I'd be happy to show it working fully or we could meet at OWER services, JCT 2, M27 at a mutually agreeable time & date. 


5 STAR REVIEW FROM WHAT HIFI -

"Suffice to say the CD6003 is a serious slab of kit and that £300 price tag appears more attractive the longer you listen to it. All the musical elements knit together to produce a hugely convincing, coherent sound.

The Marantz follows all the sonic contours of a track without sounding laboured on the one extreme, or overbearing on the other.

During the opening of Feeder's Tender, the rhythmic drumbeat, smooth vocals and natural piano play sounds enchanting.

Spin the Theme From Jurassic Park and the Marantz connects with the listener in a way that its rivals struggle to match.

The awesome musicality of the machine takes over, leading you on a dynamic, stirring journey. There's no sonic agenda, it concentrates purely on giving you a balanced, natural account of what's contained on the disc.

‘Sound mode' adds useful boost

As a result, you're encouraged to keep listening and plough through your CD collection. Before you hit play, press the ‘sound mode' button on the remote first.

This disables the display and digital output and improves sound quality. The benefits don't immediately smack you round the face – it's not like hitting a bass boost button on a ghetto blaster – but listen for longer and you'll be able to notice a significant improvement in outright detail levels and dynamics.

Build quality and styling are impressive for the money. The CD6003 mirrors the company's more expensive hi-fi separates with a chunky front panel curving away at the sides.

As with the Denon DCD-710AE, the CD6003 provides you with a headphone output and iPod-compatible USB input.

Our review sample had issues connecting to the iPhone, but Marantz assures us that this just requires a software update and that models already in the shops are unaffected.

Marantz has clearly set its sights on designing one of the most capable and competitively priced budget machines on the planet. And the triumphant CD6003 is proof that it has succeeded."
