Marantz SACD 10 Reference SACD Player

Marantz SACD 10 Reference SACD Player

Inspired by our past, engineered for the future
The reference-standard SACD 10 is the latest statement in premium disc-player design from Marantz, the world’s leading manufacturer of SACD players. Adhering to the same exacting standards as other components in the 10 Series for maximum rejection of resonance, SACD 10 is crafted to be the very best using a fully Marantz designed SACDM-3 disc transport. Engineered with Marantz Musical Mastering and next generation HDAM circuitry for detailed audio reproduction, SACD 10 offers high-resolution audio support for external source components and includes extensive additional digital input provision for other sources. SACD 10 is the ideal companion for MODEL 10, and pairs perfectly with LINK 10n. Featuring a dedicated headphone amplifier output with higher grade HDAM, dual linear power supplies with toroidal transformers, and a brushed aluminum front control surface with OLED display, the SACD 10 is based around a copper-plated, triple-layered chassis. SACD 10: a high-performance statement piece for the ages. 

SACD 10 is crafted using a fully Marantz designed SACDM-3 disc transport. Engineered with bespoke technologies such as Marantz Musical Mastering and next generation HDAM circuitry, SACD 10 delivers superior SACD and CD playback. Based around a copper-plated, triple-layered chassis, and featuring DAC inputs, SACD 10 offers high-resolution audio support for external source components and includes extensive digital
input provision for other sources. The result is the best SACD player Marantz has ever made.

The Best of the Best
From the triple-layer aluminum chassis with copper shielding to entirely original multi-layer PCBs, isolated sub-enclosures, and HDAM module, SACD 10 is the product of decades of expertise in audio engineering, setting a new benchmark with meticulous construction, state-of-the art technologies, and remarkable design.

Crafted in Shirakawa
SACD 10 was conceived and engineered in our facilities in Shirakawa, Japan where
the spirit of Kaizen is at the heart of each and every innovative technology. Only
premium Marantz products are built here, where close collaboration between our
highly experienced engineering team results in the highest performance. Products built here simply could not be built elsewhere.

Sound Master Tuned
SACD 10 retains the sonic Marantz signatures of warmth, spaciousness, and resolution. However, advances in design and precise tuning by the Sound Master result in the purest expression of the Marantz sound ever. As a result, the listener experiences more detail than ever before.

Iconic Details Reimagined for Tomorrow
With a brushed aluminum control surface, spun finish details, a thick-section
aluminum structure, copper-plated, triple-layered chassis, , SACD 10 is in a class of its own. Available in two colorways, Marantz Black and Marantz Champagne to complement any setting

High-res support
SACD 10 supports balanced sources via USB-A and USB-B DAC, plus DSD 256 and PCM 384 / 32 support. Connectivity options also include coaxial and optical digital outputs and inputs, and fixed level XLR and RCA analog outputs.

Pristine Sound
Made for the ultimate CD and SACD enthusiast, SACD 10 is engineered with
updated Marantz Musical Mastering and a next generation HDAM module for
impeccably detailed audio reproduction. Crafted to be the very best by the world’s
leading maker of SACD players with a fully Marantz designed and built transport
SACDM-3, SACD 10 is built to the same extraordinary standards as the other 10 Series components for maximum rejection of noise and resonance.
