Marantz NA6006 -Network Music Player with Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth® and Apple® AirPlay® 2
Exclusive HDAM Technology: Included analog circuitry combined with acclaimed Marantz Hyper-Dynamic Amplifier Modules (HDAMs) creates wide dynamic range and lower distortion. Built from separate components and optimized for exceptional sound quality, these miniature HDAMs are found in Marantz products up to the Reference Series players and amplifiers. Marantz developed these HDAM discrete circuit boards to replace standard IC's. The HDAM's consists of discrete surface mount components with short mirror image L/R signal paths. Those devices are doing exactly the same thing as the Op-Amps, but outperform the regular IC Op-amps dramatically in terms of the Slew Rate and reduced noise level, resulting in a much more dynamic, accurate and detailed sound.
24-Bit/192kHz DAC: The Marantz NA6006 is equipped with an audiophile-standard ESS9016 Sabre DAC with dual crystal clocks to ensure accurate handling of all digital signals for superb audio performance. The upgraded digital-to-analog converter (DAC) supports high resolution audio (up to 24-bit/192kHz and DSD 5.6MHz).
Marantz Musical Digital Filtering (MMDF) Technology: The NA6006 features unique Marantz Musical Digital Filtering (MMDF), inspired by our audiophile reference class technology. This proprietary DSP technology lets you choose from two selectable, digital filter characteristics to precisely tailor the sound to your liking. Each algorithm handles those minute details of your music with care, transforming new media files for exceptional high-resolution audio playback.
Peripheral Circuitry Off Function: The NA6006 has functions to turn off the WiFi, Bluetooth, headphone output circuit, variable audio output circuit, and digital output circuits, as well as the display to prevent noise from surrounding circuits from entering the audio signal output from the unit.
Optical Digital Input & Output: An optical (toslink) digital output is provided for connection to your home theater network audio player or other component. The unit's optical (toslink) digital input lets you use the NA6006 as a DAC with other digital audio sources. The optical (toslink) digital connections support Linear PCM signals (stereo) with sampling frequencies of 32, 44.1, 48, 65, 88.2, 96, 176.4, & 192 kHz.
Note: The digital input & output are not compatible with Dolby Digital, DTS, or DSD audio formats.
Stereo Analog Output (Variable or Fixed): The NA6006 network audio player is outfitted with analog stereo RCA outputs that can be set to fix or variable. This selectable fix or variable stereo RCA output is used to connect directly to an AV or stereo receiver, powered or active speakers, and integrated or power amplifiers.
Headphone Amp w/ Gain Control: The NA6006 also employs a high-quality dedicated headphone amplifier, which features its own output stage that's also equipped with HDAM-SA2 devices along with a precision variable analog volume & gain control. The gain control features three different selections (High/Mid/Low), making it possible to seamlessly drive low- or high-impedance headphones. There is a 1/4" headphone jack on the front-panel.
- Ethernet Jack: The Marantz NA6006 network audio player is fitted with a RJ-45 Ethernet (LAN) port to make a wired connection from the network audio player to your home network.
- Built-in WiFi: The network audio player also offers built-in WiFi (IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n; 2.4/5GHz) for a wireless network connection; WPS, WEP, WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (AES) security protection is supported. Wireless network setup can be done via WPS button, Access Point Scan, Manual, or shared through your Apple iOS device (7.0+).

Spotify is a digital music service that gives you on-demand access to one of the largest music playlist in the world (over 15 million tracks and counting). Spotify makes it easier than ever to discover, manage, and share music with your friends. You can browse music by artist, album, track, or most popular; and create your own music playlist with customized playlists.
HEOS Music Apps: With built-in HEOS technology and the HEOS app (for Apple iOS 8.0+ and Android OS 4.0) on your compatible Apple iOS or Android mobile device, you'll be able to stream a wide variety of online music services (fees may apply), plus the music playlist of your mobile device through the Marantz network audio player.
- Online Music Services: Using the HEOS app, you'll be able to stream your favorite online music services like Amazon Music (including HD), Pandora, TIDAL, iHeart Radio, SiriusXM, Napster, TuneIn, & Spotify (some services will require a paid subscription, purchases, and/or other fees).

- Systems & Groups: The HEOS wireless multi-room sound system can support up to 32 HEOS speakers, receivers, players, amplifiers, and/or pre-amplifiers (all sold separately) on a single wireless network (IEEE 802.11 g/n; 2.4/5GHz). You can join or group up to eight individual HEOS devices into a group that functions as if they were a single source. The HEOS eco-system is flexible enough where you can create up to 16 Groups (2 Heos devices per Group). You can easily group 16 rooms together with Party Mode by simply using a "pinch" gesture.
