Marantz - The Blu-ray Players for Those of Us Who Value Sound Quality as well as Video Quality!

The New Marantz BD5004 player brings the unique cosmetic look of today’s Marantz to your system. The contoured front panel features both aluminum and reinforced resin for a smooth, distinguished appearance that’s appropriate in any décor. The panel’s construction helps resist the destructive effects of unwanted vibration, too.  Custom-engineered feet add a further barrier to vibration as well as a nicely finished look.  The disc tray sits at the center of the chassis so it’s protected on all sides from external influences. You’ll appreciate its smooth action and gentle disc handling. 

And you’ll be surprised at the variety of discs the BD5004 plays. Of course, you’ll have complete access to any BD-Live content as soon as you connect this player to the net.  That’s because the BD5004 conforms to Blu-ray’s advanced Profile 2.0 specification and has the increased memory needed to make your viewing experience everything it can be.

Specifically, the BD5004 accepts Blu-ray discs (both commercial releases and recordable), DVDs (movies and DVD-R/RWs), as well as standard and recordable CDs. Don’t forget the SD and SDHC cards as well as their mini-and microSD cousins. This player also handles disc-based DivX files in addition to AVCHD (high definition video format for Camcorder) contained on discs or solid-state memory devices.  The BD5004 also plays WMA, MP3, and JPEG files from either discs or SD cards. Getting all this entertainment to your screen and your speakers is easy. 

The BD 5004 has a detachable AC cord, however, to keep the price down Marantz chose the C-7 style connector.  That doesn't mean you can't upgrade the cord, click this link to see all compatible high-quality C-7 style AC cords!

An HDMI v1.3a output brings high definition video and audio to your choice of other system components. That means you’ll be able to enjoy Deep Color video as well as the most advanced Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio soundtracks. 

Analog video connections include composite and component video, both fed from a 148.5MHz/12bit video digital-to-analog converter.  An embedded video DSP engine tailors the signal for optimum reproduction. The BD5004 produces stunning 1920 x 1080 resolution at 24 frames per second for movie reproduction that rivals the best first-run theaters. 

192 kHz/24-bit audio converters feeds high definition signals to the finely crafted stereo analog audio circuits.  Typically Marantz, these circuits benefit from carefully chosen ELNA capacitors and other high quality parts that ensure absolutely top-shelf listening.  The remarkable 115 dB signal-to-noise specification results from careful attention to signal path routing on the circuit boards as well as meticulous grounding. Marantz’s Pure Direct signal path option offers total freedom from potential interference from video and control circuits for absolute clarity.

The IR flasher input and output add system-wide control capability while an Ethernet port means you can update the BD5004’s firmware to take full advantage of future developments. Of course, a full-function remote control is standard. 

Superb performance. Convenience. Affordability. All these are the traditional Marantz hallmarks. And the BD5004 offers them all. It’s eminently approachable, easily-understood, and singularly enjoyable. With Marantz, you should expect no less.
