My budget Marantz & Infinity pride

Hi all,

Here is my setup (the front part of it, anyway :) ):

IMG_20170814_145610.jpg



It's made out of:

Marantz SR5011 surround receiver
Marantz UD7007 blu-ray player
Marantz CD5004 cd player (a bit redundant atm, but looks nice in the system)
Infinity Reference 60 (EMIT-R tweeters) fronts
Infinity Reference 100 MKII center
Infinity Reference 31 MKII rears
Infinity Infinitesimal 10" Servo Sub
Argon interconnects
Klotz cables
Xbox One + many other consoles + Philips 55PUS6561 Android TV

The fronts are bi-amped via the SR5011,

Planned upgrades are, at the moment, a dedicated Emotiva BAS-X 300 (or, if budget will allow, a Marantz MM7025) power amp for the fronts, as well as a better subwoofer ( 12" SVS or even Klipsch). The amp would free-up two outputs for front height, which I will then connect two Infinity Reference 10 MKII speakers to.

Stereo music listening is done through Pure Direct both on the SR5011 and on the UD7007, via analog outs.

Sound is amazing, I highly recommend these speakers, since one can find them for bargain prices nowadays.

Cheers,
A

Thanks for the likes you guys! :)

A bit of insight of what bugs me at the moment:
The center does not drive an EMIT-R, and I am atm looking to buy a loose one and replace it (seems to be a no-brainer swap)
The subwoofer rattles quite a bit during movies (sounds like something inside is / will be breaking apart), and, since I have no idea how to fix it, I must get another.
