Advantages: Great looks, expansive open and detailed Disadvantages: Lacks a little bite, not ideal for loud volumes
There are a number of high quality amplifiers at the moment within the budget range and Marantz certainly figures prominently in this group.

This one is different.
Marantz is well respected as a 'near audiophile' brand name - the emphasis is on quality rather than features, the DV-3100 is no exception.
I have a particular interest in baroque chamber music.
Few DVD players can offer the precision and dynamic range of a digital audio track - the DV-3100 handles this admirably.
In terms of looks - the design theme is simple - black knobs, a single smoked 'window' which shows the basic functions, centrally mounted CD drawer all on a flat ...
