FEATURES This 8-channel power amplifier comes with upgraded functions and supports the latest format of surround sound without compromising the design technology of Marantz's flagship models. Current feedback type of discrete power amplifier with high sound quality The MM8003 features in all 8 channels the current feedback type of power amplifier, which uses the complementary push-pull circuitry incorporated in Marantz's SM-11S1 Hi-Fi Power Amplifier. This improves the model's operating stability and enables it to achieve high-density, high-speed sound reproduction across a wide sound range. In the rear section the power amplifier is a current/ voltage conversion amplifier unit that employs a Wilson current mirror circuit for amplifying sound up to the treble range at low distortion levels. Improved instantaneous current supply capability In the rear section of the power amplifier is the LAPT (high-performance power transistor), which is featured in Marantz's model SM-11S1 Hi-Fi Power Amplifier. This device improves the instantaneous current supply capability. Copper bus bars are featured in the unit that supplies the power to each channel. The power supply unit has a large toroidal transformer that delivers low levels of noise and leakage flux thanks to its internal structural features such as its laminated core, silicon steel-plated core ring,etc., and the use of its shielded casing. Original Marantz parts with a combined capacitance of 100,000 µF (50,000µF/71V × 2), which have been specially crafted to achieve the maximum in terms of sound quality, are employed in the block capacitor, a key component of the power supply unit. Thanks to the improvements in the current supply capability of these parts, you can enjoy high-powered sound brimming with ambiance.

BEFORE USE High-sound-quality design based on the pure surround concept A chimney-type heat sink and extremely quiet cooling fan deal with the heat that is discharged from the 8-channel amplifier to a high degree of efficiency. A high-precision temperature sensor IC is used to adjust the rotational speed of the cooling fan in response to the changes in the amount of heat generated by the amplifier. These features together make for lavish specifications well suited to the amplifier's use in high-end theater systems, which are engineered to ensure virtually noiseless operation. The amplifier's chassis is copper-plated to protect the analog audio circuitry from high-frequency noise. This is an important technological aspect for reproducing sound without compromising the delicately nuanced sound fields of Super Audio. In addition, top-of-the-line audio capacitors, film capacitors and other high-quality components are used to achieve a high-sound-quality design. BALANCED/UNBALANCED switching function This function makes it possible to select BALANCED or UNBALANCED input each channel depending on the application. Remote power control By connecting the amplifier to Marantz's model AV8003 AV pre-tuner, the amplifier's power can be switched on or off in tandem with the power on/off operation of the AV8003 using the remote power control function. A floating ground connection that doesn’t form a ground loop is used for the connection with the AV8003 so the sound quality is not adversely affected.

This section must be read before any connection is made to the mains supply.

Notes: • Speakers come with "+" and "-" terminals. When connecting the speakers to the amplifier, connect their "+" terminals to the "+" connectors on the amplifier and, similarly, connect their "-" terminals to the "-" connectors. If a "+" terminal is connected to a "-" connector, the signal phase will be reversed, and the music played through the speakers will sound unnatural. Refer to the operating instructions of the speakers, and properly reconnect the speakers. • Connect speaker systems with an impedance of at least 6 Ω to the amplifier. If speakers with an impedance of under 6 Ω are used and sound is played at high volume levels for prolonged periods, the amplifier may experience an extreme rise in temperature, tripping the protection circuit. • If the AV8003 AV pre-tuner is connected to the amplifier and one surround back speaker is to be used, connect the speaker to the surround back left channel (SBL). If this is the case, the setting must be performed on the AV8003. (For details, refer to the operating instructions of the AV8003.) When using a control amplifier other than the AV8003, follow the operating instructions of the amplifier used, and connect the speaker properly.

POWER CABLE CONNECTION

How the speakers should be placed depends on the room size and other factors. An example of how the speakers are normally placed and some placement tips are given here. Surround R Surround Back R

Connect the power cable after all the connections have been completed.

1.

Plug the accessory power cable into the AC IN socket on the rear panel of the amplifier.

2.

Connect the plug on the power cable to the wall socket (AC 230 V, 50 Hz).

Front R

• Center speaker This speaker is placed so that its front panel is in line with the front panels of the front left and right speakers or slightly behind them. Height at which to place the front left and right speakers and center speaker Place the three front speakers (left, right and center) so that their mid-range and high-range units will be positioned at more or less the same height from the floor as much as possible.

• Surround left and right speakers These speakers are needed to play surround sound. Place them against the walls in line with the listening position or slightly behind it. Position them so that the center of the speaker front panels point toward the center the room. • Surround back left and right speakers Place these speakers behind the listening position as shown in the figure. Height at which to place the surround left and right speakers and surround back left and right speakers Place these speakers at a height of 70 cm to 1 meter above the listener. By placing the speakers at this height, the sound source will not be localized at any specific position, and the listener will feel more surrounded and enveloped by the sound.

* Ensure that the total power consumption of the amplifier and other components connected to the socket does not exceed the capacity of the socket.

TROUBLESHOOTING

• Front left and right speakers It is recommended that the front left and right speakers be positioned at an angle of 45 to 60 degrees from each other as viewed from the listening position.

POWER ON/OFF switch Standby indicator

Press the POWER ON/OFF switch. Sound is output after the illumination lamp has blinked for about 7 seconds. The sound output is delayed because of the activation of the muting circuit, which prevents noise from being output until the amplifier's circuitry operates stably after the power has been turned on. (The illumination lamp is lit while the amplifier is operating.)

BI-AMPLIFIER CONNECTIONS Four channels of this unit's power amplifiers are used to achieve bi-amplifier connections to the front speaker systems. Before connecting the speaker systems, check that they support bi-amplifier connections.

ADVANCED CONNECTIONS

OPERATION

What are "bi-amplifier connections"? This is a technique for enhancing sound quality, and it involves connecting separate power amplifiers to the bass and mid-range/treble speakers. By adopting this technique, interference in the mid-range and treble sound caused by the back electromotive force generated by the bass speaker unit can be minimized, improving the sound that can be delivered through the front speakers.

Notes: • Balanced cables are used in the connection example shown. (Unbalanced cables can also be used for bi-amplifier connections.) • If the front speaker systems are used in combination with the AV8003 in a bi-amplifier connection, sound will no longer be heard from the surround back channels.
