Marantz included circuitry refinements and specially selected parts straight out of their high-end Reference Series playbook. For example, high-quality capacitors are used in the audio signal path for superior transient speed and better bass response — giving lifelike energy to your music. And the CD5004’s advanced Cirrus Logic digital-to-analog converters (DACS) deliver the kind of rich, detailed sound you’d normally expect to hear only from costlier players.

Music enthusiasts will love the CD5004’s Audio EX mode. It mutes the digital audio outputs and turns off the display. By eliminating these potential noise sources, the CD5004 delivers pristine sound quality. Marantz also uses widely spaced, gold-plated RCA jacks that won’t cramp the heavy-duty connectors found on high-quality cables
