While offering 16 channels of amplification, the AMP 10 is by no means precious when it comes to power. It delivers an impressive (and more than you’ll likely ever need) 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms, or 400 watts per channel into 4 ohms. Marantz says the AMP 10 features its “most advanced and refined amplifier architecture”
Reviews
"The Marantz Amp 10 produced mostly excellent results on my test bench. I commend the company for thinking outside the box and offering a high power, high channel count, and high efficiency amplifier that is exactly the type of product needed for today’s Immersive Audio systems. The fact that you can bridge the unused channels to provide a shot of adrenaline to your front LCR channels is a nice touch. My initial listening impressions have been favorable in such a configuration, which I plan on covering more in my formal review. Marantz’s closest competitors in this space include the more costly 16CH Storm Audio and Trinnov amplifiers. Storm Audio uses the Pascal Class D amplifier modules with a very large 3,200-watt power supply and Trinnov uses a similar ICE Edge Class D but with 2 power supplies and inlets. Yes, those amplifiers have more dynamic power on reserve, and more power capability especially in bridged mode (Trinnov), but they will cost you significantly more than the Amp 10. The Marantz Amp 10 should deliver ample clean, noise-free power for most upscale 9.1.6 home theater speaker layouts. You certainly can’t find a less expensive, better crafted, single box solution that will give you quality amplification for up to 16 channels. I hope this product is a success for Marantz so it inspires the brand to adopt Class D amplification in their AV receiver line" Audioholics Review
"I came away thoroughly impressed by Marantz’s new AV10 and AMP10 processor and power amp combination. This dynamic duo proved to be a resounding success that lives up to its promises. It produces a massive, open soundstage with a very tangible sense of depth and height. It walks a fine line between musicality and elegance yet still manages to create a home cinema dynamo. Overall then, highly recommended!" Stereonet
