Marantz SR-880 Mark II Receiver

This was an expensive investment. But I bought it anyway. I enjoy many of its features. Since my whole house has speakers all over it, I use the "SIMUL" feature. I can get full audio EVERYWHERE. Its both good and bad. Its great because its sound everywhere. Its bad, because sometimes I forget to shut off the speakers by our pool , and the neighbors kids are attuned to the obscenities of Bubba The Love Sponge Clem (tampa, 98rock morning show - obscene!) I play music, with a marantz 5 disc carousel, and I have marantz vcr etc etc. Overall this is a great investment, if you can afford it. rent it and try it out !
