Marantz, Marantz design engineers are still pushing the boundaries of technical excellence, because at Marantz, technical excellence is a journey, not a destination.This is the vision that originally drove Saul Marantz to expand the sensory horizons of even the most demanding aficionados.

More than any other person, Saul Marantz defined premium home entertainment. His talent for industrial design and his ability to infuse talented engineers like Sidney Smith and others with his vision resulted in legendary products. The Model 7 preamplifier. The Model 8 and, soon after, the 8B power amplifier. The Model 9 “monoblock” power amplifier found a home in many audiophile systems. And NASA decided that a modified version called the 9120 was stable enough to merit use in tracking stations around the world as part of the Apollo space program.
