Marantz Melody Media MCR603 Networked DAB Micro Hi-Fi Receiver is a feature packed micro system which is designed to a very high standard and sports stylish curved casework. If you want a high quality all-in-one tabletop solution, this is it.

At the heart of the '603 is a 2 x 60 watt amplifier which delivers a clean, rich sound. Dual speaker outputs mean that you can drive a second set of speakers in another room or you can bi-amp a single pair of speakers for even better sound.

It's the huge array of entertainment sources that the MCR603 puts at your finger tips which is the real highlight. There's an integrated CD player which supports CD-R and CD-RW discs created on a computer, plus it'll play discs containing MP3 or WMA (Windows Media Audio) files. These files can also be played from compatible memory sticks, flash drives or portable MP3 players via the handy front panel USB socket which also supports direct digital connection from iPods and iPhones.

The MCR603's networking functions are something special. Connect the system to your home network and Internet connection and you'll be able to receive thousands of Internet Radio stations and access services such as Napster and Last.fm. You can even stream music, including FLAC, MP3, AAC, WMA and WAV files, from a networked computer, NAS drive or other compatible DLNA device - great if you have a large portable music collection. Airplay support means that you can stream movies, music and photos directly from iPhones, iPads, iPod Touches and computers with iTunes. In addition there are also DAB (supporting future DAB+ broadcasts), FM and AM tuners. You'll never be short of something to listen to with this system. With an optical digital input too, you could even connect your TV and enjoy its sound through the '603.

Ideal for use where space is at a premium, or if you'd just like a stylish and neat hifi system, the Marantz MCR603's advanced features and sweet sound make it a real winner.
