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 SR7400. 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. 20 cm (8 ins.)

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 About Dolby Pro Logic IIx Dolby Pro Logic IIx technology delivers a natural and immersing 7.1-channel listening experience to the home theater environment. A product of Dolby's expertise in surround sound and matrix decoding technologies, Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a complete surround sound solution that maximizes the entertainment experience from stereo as well as 5.1-channel encoded sources. Dolby Pro Logic IIx is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic technology and can optimally decode the thousands of commercially available Dolby Surround encoded video cassettes and television programs with enhanced depth and spatiality.

Furthermore, the SR7400 can output the OSD information through the Y/C (S-video) and composite video outputs. Remote Controller RC1400 The new generation of Marantz Receivers is stylish and completely symmetrical. On the front panel of the SR7400, buttons are kept to a minimum. Source selectors and volume controls are intuitively placed. The large left dial knob on the left can be used as multi dial which allows all functions of the SR7400 to be operated via the front panel. The SR7400 is here to perform in your unrivaled home entertainment setup. 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. · Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Digital , DTS ES (Discrete 6.1, Matrix 6.1, Neo: 6) · Dolby Pro Logic II (Movie, Music) · Dolby Pro Logic IIx (Movie, Music, Game) · Circle Surround II (Movie, Music, Mono) · 7 x 105 Watts (8 Ohm), Discrete Amplifiers · High Power Current Feedback Circuitry · Massive Energy Power Supply, Huge EI Transformer, Large ELCO's. · 192 kHz/24 bit Crystal® DAC for all 8 Channels · 32 bit Digital Surround Processing Chipsets · Video Off Mode · Large Heavy Duty Banana Type Speaker Terminals for all Channels · RS-232C Terminal for Future Upgrade or System Control · Set Up Menu via all Video Output (Composite, SVideo and Component video) · Auto Input Signal Detection · Improved Station Name Input Method, 50 Presets · Auto Adjust Function for Speaker Distance Settings (Delay Time) · Front Optical AUX Input (Digital Camera, Portable DVD) · Large Multi Operation Left Dial Knob · Assignable DC Trigger Output · Programmable, learning remote control · Flasher Input · Video convert system POWER OFF ON/OFF ON SOURCE M D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 CH VOL OK PREV GUIDE MENU TEST CH.SEL MUTE EXIT SURR 1 7.1CH 2 ATT 3 SPK-AB 4 DISP 5 OSD 6 SLEEP 7 CLEAR 8 0 9 MEMO TV DVD VCR DSS TUNER CD CD-R MD TAPE AUX1 AUX2 AMP LIGHT 1 RC1400 Learning Remote Controller 2 Circle Surround II (CS-II) is a powerful and versatile multichannel technology.
