Re: Marantz sr 7200

hi joezone,

i have the 7200 as well and i typically play music (2 channel) at around -30 db in our 17x13 living room (which is very open, so effectively, it's larger). for five channel home theater operation, i have it cranked at around -10 db (to accomodate the larger dynamic range). my speakers on this setup are 92 db sensitivity so that could explain our slight differences. i wouldn't worry too much about the volume level as long as its not clipping for the maximum levels you ever hope to achieve.

note, max volume level (who knows if it will clip before then) is +15 db...that's 35 db higher than you are currently playing...lots of "oomph to spare" if the amp's clipping occurs near that "max point."
