FCC INFORMATION (For US customers)  
IMPORTANT SAFETY  
INSTRUCTIONS  
1. PRODUCT  
This product complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject  
to the following two conditions: (1) this product may not cause harmful  
interference, and (2) this product must accept any interference received,  
including interference that may cause undesired operation.  
CAUTION  
1. Read these instructions.  
2. Keep these instructions.  
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK  
DO NOT OPEN  
3. Heed all warnings.  
4. Follow all instructions.  
5. Do not use this apparatus near water.  
6. Clean only with dry cloth.  
7. Do not block any ventilation openings.  
CAUTION:  
2. IMPORTANT NOTICE: DO NOT MODIFY THIS PRODUCT  
This product, when installed as indicated in the instructions contained  
in this manual, meets FCC requirements. Modification not expressly  
approved by marantz may void your authority, granted by the FCC, to use  
the product.  
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE  
COVER (OR BACK). NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE.  
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL.  
Install in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.  
8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,  
stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.  
9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A  
polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding  
type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the  
third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into  
your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.  
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at  
plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the  
apparatus.  
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.  
12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table  
specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus.  
When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/  
apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.  
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when  
unused for long periods of time.  
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral  
triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of  
uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure  
that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of  
electric shock to persons.

Features  
Cautions on handling  
Before turning the power switch on  
Check once again that all connections are correct and that there are  
no problems with the connection cables.  
BALANCED/UNBALANCED selecting function  
Depending on the desired use, input for each channel can be  
selected between BALANCED input and UNBALANCED input.  
Current feedback discrete power amp  
This is equipped with a current feedback power amp that uses the  
complimentary push-pull circuit used in the marantz Hi-Fi power  
amp. This amp provides increased operating stability, and high-  
speed, wide ranging high-density playback.  
Power is supplied to some of the circuitry even when the unit is  
set to the standby mode. When going on vacation or leaving home  
for long periods of time, be sure to unplug the power cord from the  
power outlet.  
The current/voltage conversion amplification section in the latter  
part of the power amp is equipped with a Wilson current mirror  
circuit that amplifies to the high sound range with low distortion.  
Remote Power Control  
This unit is equipped with a remote power control function. When  
a marantz AV Pre Tuner AV8801 or AV7701 is connected to this  
unit, this unit’s power can be switched ON/OFF together with the  
AV8801 or AV7701 power supply.  
About condensation  
If there is a major difference in temperature between the inside of  
the unit and the surroundings, condensation (dew) may form on  
the operating parts inside the unit, causing the unit not to operate  
properly.  
If this happens, let the unit sit for an hour or two with the power  
turned off and wait until there is little difference in temperature  
before using the unit.  
Connection to the AV8801 or AV7701 is a ground floating  
connection that prevents negative influences on sound quality as  
far as possible.  
Improved instant power supply capability  
The final stage of the power amp is equipped with the same LAPT  
(high efficiency power transistor) that is installed in the marantz  
Hi-Fi power amp, providing improved instant power supply  
capability.  
The power section is equipped with a large-sized transformer.  
As one of the essential parts of the power section, this unit  
is equipped with marantz original 50,000 μF / 71 V × 2 block  
condensers, which have been repeatedly tested for sound quality.  
These improvements to the power supply capability provide a  
powerful, presence-filled sound.  
Other Functions  
Equipped with IR flash input that supports custom installations,  
and DC trigger input and output terminals.  
Cautions on using mobile phones  
Using a mobile phone near this unit may result in noise. If that  
occurs, move the mobile phone away from this unit when it is in use.  
Moving the unit  
Turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the power  
outlet. Next, disconnect the connection cables to other system units  
before moving the unit.  
High sound quality design based on pure surround  
philosophy  
Equipped with a chimney-shaped heat sink to efficiently process  
the heat emitted from each channel amp , and exceptionally quiet  
cooling fans. A high-sensitivity temperature sensor IC is used to  
control the cooling fans, adjusting the rotation speed to match the  
amount of heat generated by the amp.  
About Care  
Wipe the cabinet and control panel clean with a soft cloth.  
Follow the instructions when using a chemical cleaner.  
Benzene, paint thinner or other organic solvents as well as  
insecticide may cause material changes and discoloration if brought  
into contact with the unit, and should therefore not be used.  
These components provide the sound quality and low-noise you  
would expect at a high-end theater.  
In addition, this unit is designed for superb quality sound, and is  
equipped with high quality components such as a high-end audio  
condenser and film condenser throughout.

NOTE  
Balanced cable  
Connect so that the speaker cable core wires  
do not protrude from the speaker terminal.  
The protection circuit may be activated if the  
core wires touch the rear panel or if the + and –  
sides touch each other (vpage 10 “Protection  
circuit”).  
Never touch the speaker terminals while the  
power supply is connected. Doing so could  
result in electric shock.

Speaker impedance  
This is certain-rated resistance of the speaker set to an alternating  
current and expressed in ohms.  
The smaller the impedance, the greater the output.  
However, load on the amplifier is increased. Use speakers whose  
impedance is supported by this unit.

wall socket again.  
There is no sound from the speakers.  
Check the speaker connections and connections to the other devices.  
Alter the input selector to match the input connector (BALANCED or  
UNBALANCED) of the connected device.

Use speakers that have the specified impedance.  
If the two core wires of the speaker cables are touching, or if a core wire  
is out of the terminal causing the core wire to touch the rear panel of this  
unit, the protective circuit will operate. Remove the power plug from the  
wall socket, and firmly re-insert the core wire, or fix the terminal before  
reconnecting it.
