Marantz Reference Class SA-CD & CD-PLAYER, Gold

Rediscover Your Music

The SA-10 is designed to set a new standard in audio. Whether listening to music on disc or content streamed from a computer, enjoy your collection in refined clarity.

It Starts with the Disc

Whether playing SACDs, CDs, or other data discs containing music, it’s vital that any player retrieves the information as accurately as possible: unlike a computer reading a disc for ripping, there’s no time for repeated re-scans when playing music – it happens in real time, so the disc transport needs to get things right first time.

Pure Marantz Sound

HDAM technology combined with optimized circuit design layout and carefully selected components, provides exceptional sound quality and performance.

Sound Master Tuned

The Marantz Sound Master meticulously tuned SA-10 for amazing performance with careful parts selection to create the Most Musical Sound in your home.

Upscale Listening

Innovative Marantz Musical Mastering “MMM-Stream” up-sampling to DSD and filtering.
