About this deal

HDMI Video Upscaling: The Marantz AV receiver offers HDMI video upscaling (up to 4K or 8K Ultra HD) thanks to its NatureVue video processor by Analog Devices. This sophisticated video processor provides upscaling of standard definition (480i/480p) and high definition (720p/1080i/1080p) HDMI connected sources to 4K or 8K Ultra HD, as well as 4K Video sources to 8K picture quality. The AV receiver only upscales HDMI input sources through the receiver's main HDMI output. The receiver does not offer analog-to-HDMI upconversion. The Marantz AVR Remote app for iOS and Android provides complete control over the latest Marantz network AV receivers. Use it to power on/off, adjust volume, input and settings, or switch instantly to the HEOS app. With Built-in Dual Speaker Preset Memory

HEOS® Built-in wireless multi-room music streaming technology: Listen from any room for a connected, whole-home audio experience. Integrated ECO mode provides energy savings and an on-screen ECO meter. Use the receiver in power-saving mode to reduce maximum output power or adopt low-power strategies across settings. Either way, the sound quality that defines Marantz excellence remains unchanged. You can also choose various inputs in the HEOS app. And if you have other HEOS devices, you can select from their inputs to play on this receiver and vice versa. HEOS is one of the few multiroom systems which permits this flexibility. Marantz was always offering strong custom installation capabilities to their AV receivers and the NR1711 seems to be no different. The unit features OvrC remote system management technology, Domotz Pro remote monitoring and management technology with dedicated web interface to control and set up your AV receiver from a computer on the same network which can be extremely handy to custom installers.All Marantz AV receivers offer extended support for easy custom install integration. Features OvrC remote system management technology, Domotz Pro remote monitoring and management technology with dedicated web interface to control and set up your AV receiver from a computer on the same network. Your installer can easily monitor the status of connected products and troubleshoot remotely from a separate location or on-the-go.

Dolby Surround Upmixer: Both models support Dolby Surround Upmixer. If the content is not mixed in Dolby Atmos then the Dolby surround upmixer will expand the audio to all channels including ceiling speakers. The upmixer has replaced the Dolby Pro Logic II family with improved upmixing algorithms.

I can live with the 120hz issue for the time being as not got the new console, but for others out there I thought I would also share some experience of using the device for about a month. The NR1711 supports the brand-new Audyssey MultEQ Editor App. Go “under the hood” to view and adjust settings for detailed tuning, customize the sound more precisely to the specific problems in your room, and tailor the sound to your personal preferences, including: For those without in-ceiling or upward firing speakers in their system, Dolby Atmos Height Virtualization Technology simulates the Atmos experience with forward-facing drivers. Configure up to five speakers to replicate the effect of two in-ceiling speakers or utilize all seven channels to simulate the powerful effect of four overhead speakers.

Slim design, exceptional performance:With a slim profile that is half the height of a traditional AV receiver, the new Marantz NR1711 delivers exceptional performance and sound quality. Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC) HDMI support: The eARC HDMI output transmits uncompressed and object-based audio formats like Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® directly from a smart TV app to the AV receiver.Watch the latest movie or listen to your favorite tunes without waking the house. The NR1711 even lets you play the audio on both Bluetooth headphones and connected speakers simultaneously. If you have a family member or a friend who is hearing impaired, this is a great option to improve dialogue without raising the overall volume. With Built-in Dual Speaker Preset Memory Enhanced Audio Return Channel (eARC) HDMI support:The eARC HDMI output transmits uncompressed and object-based audio formats like Dolby Atmos® and DTS:X® directly from a smart TV app to the AV receiver. MultEQ® auto setup and room calibration delivers balanced, dynamic sound with enhanced surround performance

Now if you are wondering, the NR1711 has no problem whatsoever if you are watching movies or playing games at 4K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz YCbCr 4:2:2 signals (32Gbps) or anything below that so in most cases you are going to be absolutely fine. This means that the PS5 will work without any problems. In the rare case where the receiver accepts a 4K/120Hz RGB signal (8-bit, 10-bit, 12-bit), like from the Xbox Series X for example, this is when this problem will appear and the only current workaround is to connect your source device directly to your TV and from the eARC connection to the receiver. NR1711 also has eARC, ie Enhanced Audio Return Channel, which means that it receives high-resolution audio from the TV’s audio return channel through the connected HDMI cable. You can thus connect all your video and game sources directly to the TV and extract the sound in high definition to the amplifier, through a single HDMI cable. For games, I would actually recommend this to obtain the lowest possible input lag, which is especially important when playing. 7.1 – not 7.2 Dynamic Volume: Your Listening experience can be greatly diminished when there are significant shifts in volume between television programs, commercials and within the program material itself. When this happens you must constantly adjust the volume to maintain your desired listening level. Audyssey Dynamic Volume monitors the volume of program material moment-by-moment and automatically adjusts it, maintaining the desired listening level for all content while optimizing the dynamic range to preserve impact. Dynamic HDR: Dynamic HDR enables a noticeable progression in overall video image quality from SDR to static HDR, and now static HDR to dynamic HDR. Dynamic HDR support ensures every moment of a video is displayed at its ideal values for depth, detail, brightness, contrast, and wider color gamuts - on a scene-by-scene or even a frame-by-frame basis. HDR-enhanced content is available for movies, videos, TV shows, video and PC games and VR. Audyssey Suite with Dual Presets: The NR1711 features the Audyssey suite of powerful DSP features - including MultEQ speaker/room calibration, Dynamic Volume, and Dynamic EQ. You can even perform Audyssey measurements for two different speaker settings, including 2.0 for music listening and 5.1.4 for movie surround.
