If you can afford it, don't hesitate.
Features, sound quality, appearance, everything. All A+.
Your CDs sound like Hi-Res. WiFi radio streaming sounds amazing, even with 96k streams. I'm not kidding.
My only gripe, and it's not one with the Marantz ND8006 unit itself, is with HEOS (the streaming app).
I really wish they included Qobuz as an option. The main reason I needed this unit was for lossless streaming. Unless you have a Tidal account (too focused on hip-hop!), your best bet is Spotify, which is lossy.
I still believe that Spotify is the best at what it does. Nothing comes close. If they offered lossless they would be the one to envy, above all.
This unit checks all the boxes for me.
All of these options work, to a greater or lesser extent. The CD player is excellent, producing a rich and well defined sound. This is also true of the DAC converter, playing either directly from my laptop through the USB-DAC input or using the USB input to play from 2TB FAT formatted hard drive. There are even user configurable DAC filter options. No complaints. I was frankly surprised that the unit could directly play a Toshiba 2.5 inch USB hard drive but it did so with the aid of the HEOS app on my Android smartphone. Unfortunately, the HEOS app is the main weakness of this setup. It works well on a very basic level, but is quite clearly an underdeveloped piece of software with a large number of irritating omissions. Anyone used to a well-featured music player on a PC or smartphone is going to find the HEOS app frustrating. For example, the HEOS app cannot read m3u or m3u8 playlist files so music files within a folder load alphabetically - meaning that you have to rename the files with a leading number if you want to preserve playing order. You can create your own playlists using the app but they are for some bizarre reason neither editable once created nor even able to be deleted in the Android app. This is frankly absurd.
That said, the app does give you access to a large number of streaming services (that I do not use) and to internet radio (that I do). That works well and a very wide range of stations is available through TuneIn.
Aside from the software issues, the ND8006 itself is a very solid and functional piece of equipment. Build quality is excellent for something in this price range and the wide range of inputs and outputs allows for a lot of different configurations. I currently use it to play internet radio through a wired ethernet input, CDs, and music files from both stand alone USB drives and my laptop using the USB-DAC input. I have the ND8006 linked to a PM8006 amp and can control both using the supplied remote control as well as through the HEOS app. There are some issues with this too - the volume control for the amp is not smooth using either the remote or the HEOS app - so I end up adjusting the volume knob manually. Overall though the sound is excellent, certainly all I need and a distinct upgrade from my aging NAD equipment.
So, satisfied overall. Other features of the unit such as linking to remote HEOS speakers or Alexa control are available but I don't use those. One day I might. One good feature of the unit is an auto firmware update available through the internet connection so there is an ability to refine and expand the unit's capacities. Refinement is certainly needed for the Android HEOS software and there is, astonishingly, no manufacturer supported Windows app to control this unit.
It just about covers any audio playing you need and does it well.
Though I build my own computers... I have never bothered to get any details about HEOS, airhead or any of the other alphas used about music.
I use, still use, full size audio components solid state [vintage] and tube units. Now I can stream high resolution music files to the other side of the room with this Marantz ND8006.
People seem to have so many questions about how it works, how to play computer music files.
How I function ..... with an desktop customized for music --- I 'right click' [context menu] the music file(s), album or individual tracks - then choose 'PLAY TO' and choose Marantz ND8006 - the files chosen are added to an player. That's all.
People mention drop outs ? This may be because you failed to go into your router and assure you established an 'reservation' for this device. But I would imagine so many of you use your device as your best and only friend and therefore are using the bandwidth for your senseless chatter. I bet from my comment you have discerned I do not have D.D. = Device Dependency.
I do share though, it would have been nice If this device be an SACD player as well. Maybe Marantz will realize - if they did release an unit WITH SACD - they would sell overnight.
Those really hot about this unit not being SACD - this was done just to pxss you off. :)
Enjoy
