Info: Marantz Ki Pearl Lite (Ken Ishiwata Edition). The Marantz PM-KI Pearl Lite integrated amplifier was created with pure sound performance at its core. Drawing from the expertise of Marantz brand ambassador Ken Ishiwata, this current feedback amplifier received meticulous attention to detail at every stage. Many of the premium components that made the original KI Pearl such a success were carried over to this model, ensuring faithful reproduction of dynamics, tonal balance, and spatial depth. The copper-plated chassis further enhances grounding and minimizes impedance for cleaner signal transmission. Marantz engineers also fine-tuned the power handling to deliver the unmistakable “KI Pearl” sonic experience. The large, double-shielded toroidal transformer and optimized circuitry provide generous bandwidth and power reserves — effortlessly driving even demanding speakers. And with vinyl firmly back in style, the PM-KI Pearl Lite includes a high-quality Phono MM input with current feedback technology. This amp is built to be enjoyed, so take your time, sit back, and listen.
