The M-CR603 is a compact yet elegantly designed one box system hosting an array of technological features from Apple Airplay, DLNA and Flac to the traditional FM, AM radio and CD Playback.

Musical playback from the Marantz MCR603 is exceptional. The clean and crisp musical presence from this compact micro system reproduces audio sounds that only the very best micro systems seem to be able to deliver.
