Marantz NA7004 Network audio player/USB DAC * Box

Enjoy more music on your high-end audio system

"Internet music" and "great sound quality" don't often go together, but they most definitely do with this network audio player from Marantz. The NA7004 connects both to your home network and your audio receiver, allowing you to enjoy cool music options like PANDORA® Internet radio, Rhapsody®, and more, on your best audio system. You can plug your iPod® straight into the front panel or upgrade to Apple AirPlay® for ultra-convenient access to your iTunes® library — no dock needed.

High-quality circuitry and components for an exceptional listening experience

This player exemplifies Marantz's commitment to superb sound. The NA7004 uses high-quality parts throughout, chosen only after extensive listening tests. You'll hear a spacious, lifelike soundstage emerge from deep silence, thanks in part to shielding that prevents digital noise from affecting sensitive analog circuits.

A "DAC" of all trades

You've probably noticed that digital music files that sound fine though a set of earbuds often sound thin and flat when played through a stereo system. The NA7004's advanced Cirrus DAC (digital-to-audio converter) will surprise you with its ability to spin straw into gold, sonically speaking. Its impressive number-crunching power handles digital audio signals all the way up to 192kHz/24-bit, reproducing your favorite music files with natural warmth and rich detail. Take advantage of the great DAC in this player four different ways:

Discover new music

An Internet-powered player like the NA7004 is a great way to broaden your listening horizons. You'll have easy access to thousands of Internet radio stations, plus you can tune in music services, like Rhapsody, Napster®, and PANDORA Internet radio. Use Rhapsody to explore a vast catalog of music without paying for each song (there's just a small monthly subscription fee). PANDORA lets you create personalized radio stations based on the artists and songs you like.

Quick access to your favorites

You can also connect your iPhone® or iPod touch® directly using the front-panel USB input (and there's a free iPod/iPhone App you can download at the iTunes Store). If you'd like to avoid running a cable to your home network, this Monster PowerNet system lets you use your home's electrical wiring to pass Ethernet signals. And for wireless playback, check out the optional RX101 Bluetooth® module.

Unleash your iTunes® music — with a free upgrade to AirPlay®

Apple's exciting AirPlay technology lets you access your favorite music from your iPhone®, iPad™, iPod touch®, or your iTunes library on your computer using this Marantz receiver. You'll be able to control iTunes and see music information, including your album art, track titles, and artist info on your compatible Apple device, or on your TV if your Marantz receiver is equipped with a video output. First you will need a free firmware upgrade. Go to the Marantz website for instructions on how to download and activate the upgrade. Requires a wireless home network. Receiver requires wired connection to the router.
