From its aluminum front panel back, the CC4001 makes a new statement about the desirability of owning a carousel disc changer.
As with most other changers, this Marantz unit holds five discs. Unlike most others, the circuitry features SA-CD grade Cirrus Logic 4392 digital-to-analog converters for the finest sound quality you`ve ever experienced from a multi-disc unit.

The CC4001 handles CDs, their recordable CD-R and CD-RW cousins, and MP3-encooded discs, too. You can select the disc you want from the front panel in addition to choosing it remotely.

Custom-installation conveniences include a bi-directional RS232C connector, a detachable AC cord, and an infrared flasher input. Hidden inside is a set of five IR code sets for multiple-user convenience.

The sound quality? Well, we`ve already mentioned the critical D/A converters. So we`ll just ask you this question - would we use those parts if the rest of the circuitry didn`t demand that level of performance? Of course not. But, then, the CC4001 is a Marantz after all.

A Great CD Changer

"The Marantz CC4001 is a very good sounding CD changer. I have previously used an Onkyo and Denon CD changer in my 2 channel system. The Denon's sound was almost equal to the Marantz, the Onkyo nowhere near. (The Onkyo is currently hooked up to my AV receiver via it's digital out where it does a good job as transport). I am using the analog outputs of the Marantz CD changer in my tube amplified 2-channel system..." Read Full Review »

Disappointing Longevity

"Recognizes all manner of home-burned CDs, including a CD with mixed wav and mp3 formats. Changer is reasonably fast and quiet. Everything would be wonderful if it had not decided to stop returning CDs after only two weeks of use, progressing to becoming completely confused,reporting all five trays full when they're empty, and entering permanent error mode at startup. Troubleshooting guide AND website FAQ don't e..." Read Full Review »

"This has been a good CD player so far. I haven't found any big drawbacks. The sound is good. I haven't tried to play all formats yet, only CD's, but it plays CD-R's without a problem.



The only slight drawback is the tray noise on start up and when changing discs. It's rather loud and on start …"  Read Full Review »

"Due to Standby mode, it is not possible to power up this CD player via amp remote with unit plugged into the Switched amp outlet. It requires using the Marantz remote to power on. It will power off when amp is turned off. Standby is supposed to protect the unit, but this is a bit inconvenient. O …"  Read Full Review »
