I'm not aware of any update from Marantz on this problem, and in
recent conversation with them they said that no update or bulletin is
available for the PMD222.
We service many Marantz recorders, and all the PMD222's that we have
seen suffer from excessive noise on the XLR input. We offer an
upgrade for those who are interested that reduces the noise by 10d
(down to the level of the mini-jack input).
[sorry if this is a duplicate post - the first one did not seem to
post for some reason]
Thanks,
