*Official* Marantz 2016 NR1607, SR5011/6011/7011 owner's thread
Welcome to the Marantz 2016 receivers thread!
Well it's that time of the year again when Marantz starts to unveil their line up for 2016.
Starting in May and continuing into the fall, new receivers for their slim line series as well as the full height receivers will be announced and become available to purchase.
This is a master thread for the new 2016 Marantz receivers models. Similar to the 2015 Marantz thread owner's (or potential owners) can post their questions in a single master thread.
Moving things along, imagic has let the cat out of the bag by letting people know about the new 2016 slimline model revealed by Marantz the First 2016 Marantz AVR Unveiled: NR1607 Slim Design thread.
So what are we expecting for 2016? All 2016 models will now have Atmos and DTS:X in various speaker configurations.

One new 7-channel slim line receiver with model number NR1607 with Dobly Atmos 5.1.2 speaker configuration. The 5-channel slimline receiver (NR1506) is a carry over from 2015 and remains current for 2016. Details of which are below.
Three new full height receivers with model numbers SR5011, SR6011 and SR7011.

General notes for posting in this thread.
If this is your first visit to this thread, and you want to ask a question about one of the 2016 Marantz models, either one that you own or one that you are thinking of buying, please provide the following information to allow for better responses to your questions:
(a) Identify the model number in question (eg. SR5011), as there are 5 different models (NR and SR series) discussed in this thread. Also if you have not posted in several days since your initial post, please post the model # again so we don't have to back track to learn which model you are referencing.
(b) Identify what you've done so far to troubleshoot the issue and what the front panel is displaying if an audio issue, (also take a few minutes to review the Troubleshooting section provided in post number 3 of the 2016 Denon thread as the Marantz models are similar in nature and your question may already be answered there),
(c) Unless you indicate what settings have been changed, the assumption will be that all settings are on the factory defaults (ie. usually "Auto"),
(d) If the advice given seems to simplistic or obvious, don't shoot the advice giver as we have no idea of the level of your technical understanding,
(e) If there is no response to your post, it either means no one knows the answer or it has simply been overlooked so please repost if you still haven't resolved your issue,
(f) If you post a question in this thread and are given advice and either it or some other advice (eg. Marantz phone support, Marantz "Ask a Question" email support) resolves your issue, have the common courtesy to post back what solution resolved your issue so others can learn from it as well,
(g) If the issue is not user error or not just a misunderstanding on how the AVR works, please call Marantz support so the issue is registered,
(h) When responding to another post that is providing assistance to you, please press the "Quote" button in the lower right corner of that other poster's response so that response is also listed with your new post to provide some context, and,
(i) If you don't live in either the USA or Canada, please either indicate your country location in your profile or your post as some Marantz models from other regions in the world differ in configuration from their USA/Canada counterparts otherwise responses made will be regarding the USA/Canada models.
