Hi all,

Can anyone who owns or have experience of a Marantz PM7000N help me answer a query? I am very interested in this amp and was wondering if you are able to start it playing a song by using Google assistant? For example, if I ask my Google home mini to play 'UK Top hits on the amp' will it start playing Spotify?

The website says you can skip track, change volume, but I just want to be sure you can start a track too.

Thanks
Michael
 
hi - it sort of works, it isn't as good as you might think. The website is right, you can only do what it says. But I say to my Google smart speaker "play blah blah" and when it starts on the smart speaker, i say "play on Marantz" and it transfers over. This works 80% of the time. Sometimes it fails. But then you can only do the voice functions as you describe. I use it for volume control and to switch it off.
