Are marantz power amps any good?


I want to step up to a power amp and was wondering g if the marantz power amps are worth it? I love the sound of their avr's , but the power amps seem low on specs , is there more too it than wattage ? Do they provide tons of current , and if so what makes a 300 watt per channel amp better than this one ?

In my opinion Marantz power only amps fall in 2 categories.
Their inexpensive AV "power only" amps, mono or otherwise, both past & present, are not for someone who appreciates high quality audio but may satisfy the average video enthusiast. Their high end Reference Series mono amps have lots of current to handle anything, are fairly priced, & provide a quality listening experience for the average audio enthusiast.
