What is the difference between Marantz UD5007 and UD7007?

Thanks for your question. Incorporating significantly superior digital and analogue audio and video circuitry, the 7007 is a significantly better sounding and looking player on a system that is able to display these differences. This is a fantastic sounding player. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud Marantz dealer.

I use my Marantz to drive B&w 805 nautilus with a b&w sub woofer. Sounds pretty good to me. Hope this helps

The upa 500 is rated at 80W/channel vs 200 for the XPA which can be a whole world of difference. My previous amp was a NAD 955 @ 100W per channel x 5 and is a fairly highly regarded amp at close to twice the price of the XPA. The additional power in the Emotiva made a huge difference with my PSB Synchrony 1Bs. It's a steal at that price. You'd have to go up significantly expense wise to equal it's performance, maybe to an Outlaw Audio which is a better amp but, again, double the price.

Thanks very much for your question. Night and day is certainly a very individual and a subjective description. I personally hear the Marantz as fuller, sweeter and more pleasing to listen to. For me it's very much worth the difference. Thanks again very much for your inquiry.

Thank you for your question. The Marantz SR6008 uses HDMI 1.4. Please let us know if you have any other questions!

That's not as easy to answer as you might think. Both are very sophisticated receivers, and both companies have a kind of brand identity despite being owned by the same parent company. The devices handling the input are even more important as are your speakers and room arrangements. I owned a Marantz in the past and was very satisfied. I feel the Denon is excellent and even a more precise sound quality but I added much better peripherals such as an Oppo Blue Ray. Having said that I'm sure both would do: it's just a matter of personal taste at this price point.

X2000 seems to have a bit more per channel power: 95w vs 75w. the 700 has 2 LFE subwoofer outs, the X2000 only one. the X2000 has front HDMI IN (camera) which I don't think the X700 has. think the 700 only gets a 2-year warranty vs 3-years for the X2000. I have my X2000 directly wired to my home WLAN AP and so WiFi is not an issue for me. I have Apple IOS Devices and Airplay does what I need - generally BT has more limit range and fidelity depending on the available audio profiles. Personally I would not base my decision on built-in WiFi & BT.

I am satisfied with the S500. The S700 seems to be geared to having remote control of the unit in a separate room. The S500 does allow control of a second set of speakers but you have to do it at the unit itself. The extra power might be useful if you need to play loud music in two rooms at a time.

I use the marantz to drive two rega rs1, with rega speaker cables. It does the job quite well. Excelent highs and pretty god bass. Excellent instrument separation. Very good depth. Hope this helps.

I've got a Marantz NR1504 which I got specifically for a surround system, and the subwoofer was the last piece. You might visit a local stereo shop and ask about receiver specs for a system that includes a powered subwoofer, and use that to help figure out what you have and what you need. Good luck.

I can't speak about the 500, but I will say that I am extremely pleased with the 700. Plenty of volume, very clean, runs cool even over long periods at high volume. Bass and treble range and response are excellent, At this price point, a very impressive unit.

Not sure Paulo, I got the 7.2 because I have 2 powered subs, and 8 surround speakers... needed the power!! may just have an extra bell or whistle that you may not even need.... product description for both should be listed,sorry.

Dear Mustapha,Thank you for your inquiry. They are both great receivers. Based on amplifier quality I would probably give a slight edge to the Marantz AV8801. Let me know if I can be of any additional assistance!Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

Sure no problem! I know my Onkyo is hdmi 1.3a and as I said, i've had no issues so I bet it would work just fine through your Marantz. Good luck!

I have used several decades Marantz and had never a broken unit, I'm sure that Marantz Europe will help you with service if needed. Be aware that US equipment is build for 110Volt 60Hz, Europe has 230Volt 50Hz Best Regards, Andries Bosma

I think that the difference is the hard drive in the 720. If I compare the specifications from both players is that the only thing I have no experience with the 720 but own a 700 and is working fine
