You can also stream your favorite tracks wirelessly from your iPhone, iPod touch and iPad via AirPlay.

The SR6010 features very high grade audio components that have been carefully selected. The whole internal circuit further enhances audio quality by delicately handling all signals via the Marantz-own HDAMs (Hyper Dynamic Amplifier Module) in Current Feedback topology before passing them on to the power stage to fire up the connected speakers. The powerful amplifier section features discrete high current output devices on all channels, and all amp channels are configured identically. Rated at 185 watts per channel, the SR6010 has the ability to drive lower impedance 4 ohm speakers on all channels.

Dolby Atmos Built-In; DTS:X ReadyDolby’s new Atmos surround sound technology dispenses with channel-based coding in favor of more advanced object-based coding, giving the sound designer the ability to precisely place sounds anywhere in the 3-dimensional space.
