Yes, you can use the Marantz with a Model 770. The Marantz SR7300 has pre-amp outputs, which you would connect to the 770's inputs.

And in fact, that's an excellent way to get your feet wet in separates. By upgrading your amplifier to a separate one of high quality (such as the 770), you'll make a solid improvement to your system without having to buy a whole ton of components initially.

Later, you could, say, get a separate tuner. Then you'd only be using the pre-amp and surround processing of your receiever.

Finally, you could buy a surround processor and sell the receiver.

Be sure to let us know how it works out for you. The Model 770 is one heck of a powerhouse amp. You're going to love it!
