With its advanced & innovative technology audio is reproduced with superior quality. The state-of-the-art components on the circuitry inside the SA8005SG achieve lower levels of noise & impedance resulting in a large improvement in overall sound quality. The SA8005SG also features a DAC-mode which enhances audio from digital sources to the level of quality as heard from analogue sources offering a much richer & more natural fuller sound. Connect digital devices such as your mp 3 player via the optical & coaxial digital inputs or use the USB (Universal Serial Bus) input to connect a laptop without the noise created by your PC thanks to the latest ground/isolator technology on the SA8005SG so nothing spoils your enjoyment. The SA8005SG also features Marantzs hallmark Hyperdynamic Amplification Modules (HDAM) which further enhance the detail & dynamics of your music. Also the Toroidal (doughnut-shaped) transformer on the SA8005SG reduces electromagnetic radiation & vibration further ensuring that noting is taken away from the audio quality.
