Marantz has unveiled three home cinema amps for 2016, including the first Marantz amp to feature HEOS multi-room technology.

The 9-channel SR7011 offers 11.2ch processing with 13.2ch pre-out, and is capable of Dolby Atmos 7.1.4, as well as supporting DTS:X and Auro 3D formats through forthcoming firmware upgrades.
