This remarkable component has been engineered to provide you with many years of home theater enjoyment. Please take a few minutes to read this manual thoroughly before you connect and operate the SR6400. As there are a number of connection and configuration options, you are encouraged to discuss your own particular home theater setup with your Marantz A/V specialist dealer. DESCRIPTION DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels of discrete digital audio into home theater systems. DTS brings you premium quality discrete multichannel digital sound to both movies and music. DTS is a multichannel sound system designed to create full range digital sound reproduction. The no compromise DTS digital process sets the standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering an exact copy of the studio master recordings to neighborhood and home theaters. Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker intended. DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or music on of DVD's, LD's, and CD's. "DTS" and "DTS Digital Surround" are registered trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc. · Neo:6 offers a music mode to expand stereo nonmatrix recordings into the five- or sixchannel layout, in a way which does not diminish the subtlety and integrity of the original stereo recording. PRECAUTIONS CAUTIONS ON INSTALLATION For heat dispersal, leave at least 20 cm/8 inch of space between the top, back and sides of this unit and the wall or other components. · Do not obstruct the ventilation holes. DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multichannel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. While offering high compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTS-ES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression thanks to further expanded surround signals. This format has been used professionally in movie theaters since 1999. In addition to the 5.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C, SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also offers the SB (Surround Back) channel for surround playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods, as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1. "DTS", "DTS-ES Extended Surround" and "Neo:6" are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc. DTS 96/24 offers the following: 1. Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24 master. 2. Full backward compatibility with all existing decoders. (Existing decoders will output a 48 kHz signal) 3. No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried on DVD-video, or in the video zone of DVD-audio, accessible to all DVD players. 4. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality fullmotion video, for music programs and motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video. ENGLISH Dolby Digital identifies the use of Dolby Digital audio coding for such consumer formats as DVD and DTV. As with film sound, Dolby Digital can provide up to five full-range channels for left, center, and right screen channels, independent left and right surround channels, and a sixth ( ".1") channel for low-frequency effects. Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is an improved matrix decoding technology that provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby Surround program material; provides a convincing three-dimensional soundfield on conventional stereo music recordings; and is ideally suited to bring the surround experience to automotive sound. While conventional surround programming is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback, including separate left and right surround channels. (Such material is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders.) Dolby Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that derives three surround channels from the two in the original recording. For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movies soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX. Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories.

The advantages of discrete multichannel systems over matrix are well known. But even in homes equipped for discrete multichannel, there remains a need for high-quality matrix decoding. This is because of the large library of matrix surround motion pictures available on disc and on VHS tape; and analog television broadcasts. The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center channel and a mono surround channel from two-channel matrix stereo material. It is better than a simple matrix in that it includes steering logic to improve separation, but because of its mono, band-limited surround it can be disappointing to users accustomed to discrete multichannel. Neo:6 offers several important improvements as follow, · Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of matrix decoding from stereo matrix material. Users with 6.1 and 5.1 systems will derive six and five separate channels, respectively, corresponding to the standard home-theater speaker layouts. · Neo:6 technology allows various sound elements within a channel or channels to be steered separately, and in a way which follows naturally from the original presentation. The stereo CD is a 16-bit medium with sampling at 44.1 kHz. Professional audio has been 20- or 24bit for some time, and there is increasing interest in higher sampling rates both for recording and for delivery into the home. Greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range. Higher sampling rates allow wider frequency response and the use of anti-alias and reconstruction filters with more favorable aural characteristics. DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1channel sound tracks to be encoded at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVDVideo titles. When DVD-video appeared, it became possible to deliver 24-bit, 96 kHz audio into the home, but only in two channels, and with serious limitations on picture. This capability has had little use. DVD-audio allows 96/24 in six channels, but a new player is needed, and only analog outputs are provided, necessitating the use of the D/A converters and analog electronics provided in the player. 2 Circle Surround II (CS-II) is a powerful and versatile multichannel technology. CS-II is designed to enable up to 6.1 multichannel surround sound playback from mono, stereo, CS encoded sources and other matrix encoded sources. In all cases the decoder extends it into 6 channels of surround audio and a LFE/subwoofer signal. The CS-II decoder creates a listening environment that places the listener "inside" music performances and dramatically improves both hi-fi audio conventional surround-encoded video material. CS-II provides composite stereo rear channels to greatly improve separation and image positioning ­ adding a heightened sense of realism to both audio and A/V productions. CS-II is packed with other useful feature like dialog clarity (SRS Dialog) for movies and cinema-like bass enrichment (TruBass). CS-II can enable the dialog to become clearer and more discernable in movies and it enables the bass frequencies contained in the original programming to more closely achieve low frequencies ­ overcoming the low frequency limitations of the speakers by full octave. Circle Surround II, Dialog Clarity, TruBass, SRS and symbol are trademarks of SRS Labs, Inc. Circle Surround II, Dialog Clarity and TruBass technology are incorporated under license from SRS Labs, Inc. The SR6400 incorporates the latest generation of digital surround sound decoding technology such as Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Digital, DTS ES (Discrete 6.1 and Matrix 6.1), DTS Neo:6 (Cinema, Music), Dolby Pro-Logic II (Movie and Music), Circle Surround II (Cinema and Music) . In addition, Marantz has focused on the future. By utilizing pre-out jacks, 6.1 direct inputs and a RS232C communication port, the SR6400 is tomorrow's technology, today! The SR6400 features a fully discrete 6 channel amplifier section capable of delivering 100 watts of high-current amplification, for continuously clean and stable power into each of the six channels. It employs a massive EI power transformer in combination with oversized filter capacitors. This design configuration is capable of a clear and powerful reproduction of the most demanding action movie soundtracks and full range (multichannel) music discs. Through its ability to generate very high output voltages, the SR6400 can easily drive the most demanding speakers with optimum results. The SR6400 incorporates the most advanced Digital Signal Processing circuitry, along with a Crystal ® 192 kHz/24 bit D/A converter in each of the 7 channels. Independent power supply circuits are incorporated for the FL display, audio and video sections for maximum separation, clarity and dynamic range. Together with hand-selected customized components, all elements work in harmony to recreate the emotion, exactly as the artist had intended. The SR6400 is designed and engineered with extensive feedback from custom installation experts, dealers and consumers. It features a RS232C communication port, heavy duty speaker binding posts and an extensive array of both analog and digital inputs / outputs. With 6 assignable digital inputs, 2 component inputs, SACD Multi Channel (6.1 channel) direct inputs and a speaker-B and OSD output versatility is taken to a stunning new level. Furthermore, the SR6400 can output the OSD information through the Y/C (S-video) and composite video outputs. An easy-to-use programmable, learning remote control allows full access to all of the operating functions and can be used for system operation as well. Remote Controller RC7300SRa S The TruSurround Headphone technology provides a surround sound listening experience over headphones. When listening to multichannel content such as DVD movies over headphones, the listening experience is fundamentally different than listening to speakers. Since the headphone speaker drivers are covering the pinna of the ear, the listening experience differs greatly from traditional speaker playback. TruSurround utilizes patented headphone perspective curves to solve this problem and provides a non-fatiguing, immersive, home theater listening experience. TruSurround Headphone also delivers exceptional 3D audio from mono and stereo material.

If your DVD player or other device has component video connectors, be sure to connect them to these component video connectors on the SR6400. The SR6400 has two component video input connectors to obtain the color information (Y, CB, CR) directly from the recorded DVD signal or other video component and one component video output connector to output it directly into the matrix decoder of the display device. By sending the pure DVD component video signal directly, the DVD signal forgoes the extra processing that normally would degrade the image. The result is vastly increased image quality, with incredibly life like colors and crisp detail. Connect the AC power cables of components such as a DVD and CD player to these outlets. SWITCHED and UNSWITCHED outlets are provided. The one marked SWITCHED provides power only when the SR6400 is turned on and is useful for components which you use every time you play your system. The one marked UNSWITCHED is always live as long as the SR6400 is plugged into a live outlet. A component connected here may be left on permanently, or may be switched off with via its own power switch. /3 AUDIO IN/OUT (CD, TAPE, CD-R, TV, DVD, VCR1, DSS/VCR2) These are the analog audio inputs and outputs. There are 7 audio inputs (4 of which are linked to video inputs) and 4 audio outputs (2 of which are linked to video outputs). The audio jacks are nominally labeled for cassette tape decks, compact disc players, DVD players and etc.... The audio inputs and outputs require RCA-type connectors. Caution: · In order to avoid potential turn-off thumps, anything plugged into these outlets should be powered up before the SR6400 is turned on. · The capacity of this AC outlet is 120W. Do not connect devices that consume electricity more than the capacity of these AC outlets. If the total power consumption of the connected devices exceeds the capacity, the protection circuit shuts down the power supply. /4 DIGITAL INPUT (Dig.1 - 6) / OUTPUT (coaxial, optical) AM antenna and ground terminals Connect the supplied AM loop antenna. Use the terminals marked "AM" and "GND". The supplied AM loop antenna will provide good AM reception in most areas. Position the loop antenna until you hear the best reception. Notes: · This component video output will not display the OSD menu system. . Speaker outputs terminals These are the digital audio inputs and outputs. There are 3 digital inputs with coaxial jacks, 3 with optical jacks. The inputs accept digital audio signals from a compact disc, LD, DVD, or other digital source component. For digital output, there is 1 coaxial output and 1 optical output. The digital outputs can be connected to MD recorders, CD recorders, DAT decks, or other similar components. v Preamp Outputs (L, R, SL, SR, SB, C) Eight terminals are provided for the front (A) left, front (A) right, front (B) left, front (B) right, front center, surround left, surround right and surround back speakers. Jacks for L(front left), R (front right), C (Center), SL (surround left), SR (surround right) and SB (surround back). Use these jacks for connection to external power amplifiers. 6 Used to open or close the door. Used to select monitor input. Note: · This button is unavailable for the SR6400.
