Marantz
CD6000 OSE
as new boxed £175. Pictured Below
Like all other products, hi-fi components are built to a
price that will work in the marketplace. This requires
careful trade-offs between the costs of the internal
components inside a CD player, and the price point that
product needs to hit. (This isn't specific to Marantz, or
to hi-fi components. This affects just about every
manufactured product).
Often, as with the case of the original 6000, the base
player is very good and amenable to tweaking to improve
performance. So Marantz, under the guidance of
European-based Ken Isiwata, substitute better sounding (and
more expensive) components to produce a higher-performace,
but more expensive CD player.
Based on the Marantz 6000, the 6000 OSE upgrades the power
transformer with a larger core and oxygen-free copper. The
OSE uses an additional bottom plate in the structure to
increase the rigidity of the player. Marantz also use an
additional HDAM (their amplifier module stage) for current
to voltage conversion in the output stage and numerous
other tweaks.
The appearance of the 6000 OSE is simply gorgeous and the
player looks much more expensive than it's $1199 price tag
indicates. The superbly finished thick aluminium front
panel is the main reason for this.
The front panel is very well designed, with the most used
controls having larger buttons. This means that your finger
will automatically go to the play or stop button, rather
than accidentally hitting the track skip button.
The Marantz is an incredibly detailed player. Unlike some
components that sound "detailed" the OSE did not thrust
information at your face. Instead, it allowed the detail
and information to emerge from the speakers, in a realistic
form. Nice.
