Marantz CD60 Launched at High End Munich 2022
Marantz announces the CD 60 CD player at the High End Show in Munich to partner the recently announced MODEL 40n integrated stereo amplifier.
The Marantz CD 60 features the striking industrial design of the Model 30 and 40 components and the laudable build quality.
Marantz was there at the very beginning of the CD format, and the CD 60 should benefit from a legacy of engineering and refinement that includes the company's latest HDAM (Hyper Dynamic Amplifier Modules) amplifier modules in the analogue output stage. We're assured that the new HDAM is superior in their overall response compared to off-the-shelf chip solutions found in other products.
The CD 60 features a new reference-class D/A converter (up to 192kHz/24-bit and DSD 5.6MHz) for optimum clarity across all frequency ranges. You are also given two filter options, with Filter 1 delivering a gentle roll-off while Filter 2 provides a sharper roll-off for more precise imaging.
The CD 60 also inherits the exclusive Marantz HDAM-SA2 high-performance headphone amp circuit with three gain settings (Low/Mid/High) for headphone matching. Additionally, you can turn off the headphone section, eliminating any unwanted interference.
Finally, a USB-A port on the fascia enables playback of a vast array of digital files such as MP3, WMA, AAC and WAV, FLAC HD, ALAC, AIFF (up to 192-kHz/24bit), and DSD (up to 5.6-MHz) from a connected USB storage device.
The Marantz CD 60 player will be available with an MSRP is €799 in June 2022.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
