About the Marantz MODEL M1
The MODEL M1 is a compact, all-in-one streaming integrated amplifier — small enough to sit on a shelf or desk, but built around a Class D stereo amp delivering 100 watts per channel into 8 ohms, rising to 125 watts into 4 ohms (0.05% THD). Marantz's Musical Digital Filtering (MMDF) is a proprietary DSP with two selectable filter characteristics, letting you tailor the exact tonal balance to your taste rather than settling for one fixed sound.
There's no handheld remote included — the MODEL M1 is controlled entirely from a mobile app, with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant available as optional voice control. Dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi (2.4/5GHz) supports security up through WPA3-SAE, set up via access point scan, manual entry, or PIN, or you can connect over Ethernet for a wired connection. Either way you get HEOS built-in, Apple AirPlay 2, Bluetooth, Roon Ready certification, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, Amazon Music HD, SiriusXM, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, and Pandora.
Connections are streamlined for a compact streaming amp: one RCA line-level input, one optical digital input, an HDMI eARC input for sound from a connected TV, one USB-A port for thumb-drive playback, and a mono RCA subwoofer output. There's no phono input, no XLR, and no headphone jack, and digital audio tops out at 24-bit/192kHz. This is a component built for listeners who want full-featured streaming and real amplifier power in the smallest possible footprint.
