Marantz 7002,How to find the firmware you have

[ozzman]

I have another thread in the blu-ray section and i already posted this in there but i found this interesting and i thought this might help someone that has this reciever.

I just grabbed the 7002 two days ago.I wanted to find what kind of firmware i had. I went through some steps and found out i had VER 33.

I called my dealer and asked him if he could find out what the latest firmware was.He called me back and said he talked to a Marantz representative and was told its up to VER 35.

I found out that i can't download it off the Internet. I would have to unhook it and bring it down next week when the representative is in.He's going to take it and i should get it back in for a week.

I haven't had the 7002 that long so i haven't had any problem But reading some threads on the 7002 i heard that some people are having poping noises from there speakers with dts ma and Dolby true.

I don't know what VER 35 is going to fix but hear are the steps you have to go through to find the VER you have in your reciever.

-open the front panal of the 7002
-Hold down the pure direct button,the 7.1 input button and the M-DIX button at the same time(for 2-4 seconds)
-then press the enter button on the front panel,it will give you numbers
-press again 2 to 3 more times and it will show you your ver

Like i said mine is VER 33.My dealer said there is no VER 35, 7002 recievers out there so iam getting mine updated just because i have a chance to.

I don't know if this will help anyone but i thought i would aleast post what ive learned
