Power and performance The SR4400 delivers a generous 80 watts (into 8 ohms) of discrete power into each of its six main channels and includes a full selection of performance and convenience features. Endless enjoyment is available at the touch of a button, via an easy to use on-screen menu, AM/FM tuner with 30- station preset memory and full remote control operation. In audio mode, the source direct function is extremely efficient for optimized clarity and detailed musical reproduction. It bypasses the entire A/V section, including the D/A and A/D conversions to realize the shortest signal path, for minimal interference and disturbance by radiated electrical or magnetic fields. The SR4400 also includes 6.1-channel pre-amp outputs, providing a ready upgrade path to a more powerful home theater system using external amplifiers. The large power supply incorporates a high current power transformer, with ample capabilities to drive low impedance loudspeakers. Dolby Digital EX Dolby Digital EX brings a new dimension of depth, spacious ambience and sound localization to home theater environment. The benefits of DD-EX include more realistic flyover and fly- around effects, a more stable image for atmospheres and music and a more consistent surround effect throughout the auditorium or home viewing area. DTS-ES The DTS-ES surround system offering a superb sound quality and a range of formats. The Discrete 6.1 offers the ultimate quality of surround field creation, while the Matrix 6.1 provides compatibility for the existing DTS 5.1 software. And the Neo:6 is to create 6.1 surround stage from any two channel source. Dolby Pro Logic II music and movie Dolby Pro Logic is capable of producing a Multi Channel soundstage using only a two channel source, meaning that normal TV broadcast can only be decoded using this technique. Now the standard is being successed by the Dolby Pro Logic II format, offering the full frequency range accross all channels and even with a stereo soundfield on the surround speakers. This experience of two channel decoding adds a more realistic element to watching TV and is fully compatible with the Dolby Pro Logic standard.CS II Circle Surround II is a powerfull and versatile multi-channel technology designed to enable up to 6.1 multi-channel surround-sound playback from mono, stereo, CS encoded sources and other matrix encoded sources. CS-II places the listener "inside" the music performances and dramatically improves the separation and image positioning of both hi-fi audio conventional surround-encoded video material, adding a heightened sence of realism. Experience the emotion Music and sound track reproduction is enhanced through a highly efficient source direct switch, which bypasses the total A/V section in audio mode. In direct mode, interference and disturbance by radiated electrical or magnetic fields are minimized, ensuring the shortest signal path for the highest degree of clarity and detail. Highly accurate 192kHz/24-bit audio D/A converters process the analog to digital conversion, resulting in a far more faithful sound quality compared to the original source. It encompasses the Marantz heritage with refinements such as a metal alloy faceplate, a efficient video off mode and high grade components. Convenience & Functionality´s The SR4400 presents multiple surround modes, like hall, stadium, virtual, matrix, movie and 6-channel stereo. The extensive feature list, such as auto preset tuning (program up to 30 stations), manual station naming, display dimmer, delay function and clock/timer characterize the functionality of the SR4400. The SR4400 incorporates an extensive array of digital and analog audio and video connections to accommodate a wide variety of multiple program sources. It also features pre-amp outputs and a multi-language on-screen display. Music reproduction is enhanced through a highly efficient source direct switch, which bypasses the entire A/V section in audio mode. In direct mode, interference and disturbance by radiated electrical or magnetic fields are minimized, ensuring the shortest signal path for the highest degree of clarity and detail. For easy speaker distance correction an easy setup function complements the functionality of the SR4400.

In Marantz style To control entire system with one remote handset, Marantz has designed the D.Bus system. Individual devices inform each other and remote control commands are communicated via this bus line. An easy to use pre-programmed remote control allows for full intuitive and extensive system control. The SR4400 allows a powerful and versatile integration of home theater in your living environment. ■User manual ■Power cable ■Remote control ■Batteries ■FM antenna ■AM loop antenna RC5400SR Bypacked Accessories
