Marantz MCR 60n + Argon Audio Forus 5 – The Sensible Way Into Marantz
Marantz electronics do not have to mean a rack of separates. The MCR 60n DAB puts CD, phono, streaming, DAB+ and TV audio in one compact box, and the Argon Audio Forus 5 gives it an honest, warm pair of Scandinavian bookshelf speakers at a price that keeps the whole system within reach. It is the set we would suggest to someone buying their first real hi-fi.
In This Setup
-
Marantz MCR 60n DAB – all-in-one with front-loading CD, MM phono stage, HEOS, DAB+ and HDMI eARC, 2 x 65 W into 4 ohms. Matte Black or Marantz Champagne.
-
Argon Audio Forus 5 (pair) – passive bookshelf speakers with 5.25-inch woofer and 1-inch silk dome tweeter, 4 ohm, 86 dB. Black, Walnut or White.
Why This Combination
-
4 ohm speaker, 4 ohm rated amp: the MCR 60n is specified into 4 ohms, so the Forus 5 gets its full 65 W per channel.
-
Nothing else to buy: sources, amplification and DAC are inside the Marantz – add speaker cable and play.
-
Grows with you: the MCR 60n has Speaker B outputs and a sub out for the day you want more.
Set price includes both products; speaker cable is sold separately.
