Stereo 1/1998 (test of the Marantz 17 system with CD-17 M, ST-17, PM-17): Stereo test verdict: Very good. CD player (extra): Excel lent, 3 stars: "A classic Hi-Fi chain with a successful look and top-class workmanship. In terms of sound, the CD player in particular is convincing: it puts even the highly decorated predecessor CD-17 in the shade." (ibid., P.52)
Stereoplay 4/1998: Stereoplay Sound rating: 27 points, very good (top class), from mid-1998 54 points (new rating system), price/ performance: very good. "Revised CD 17, which convinces with its sound: more precise, wider imaging and with fine highs." (ibid. P.24)
