Marantz 50 vs Integra 5.4?

A shopper on Mar 11, 2023

Thanks for your inquiry. The Cinema 50 and DRX 5.4 are quite comparable. Robust build quality, very similar specifications, and a bevy of features. The difference is in the included features and their usefulness in your system. The Onkyo has analog video connections, if that is necessary. The Marantz has HEOS wireless whole-house distributed audio which is a significant feature. It is a tough choice to pick one over the other.
