The Ken Ishiwata K I Pearl has a baby brother in a new design with minimised but not compromised cost effective component design.

Designed as a more portable media compatible unit to meet the needs of the younger aficionado, it still maintains the essence of the Marantz sound.

There is a USB input and a fully compatible SACD drive for media format playback. A key area of edification is that not all compressed media needs to sound poor and making your recordings at higher data rates can still produce high quality playback of your music.
