NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV (Cable-TV) system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC, that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specified that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by tuning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
NOTE:
Changes or modifications may cause this unit to fail to comply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
READ BEFORE OPERATING EQUIPMENT
This product was designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and safety standards. There are, however, some installation and operation precautions which you should be particularly aware of.
1.Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should be read before the appliance is operated.
2.Retain Instructions-The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.
3.Heed Warnings-All warnings on the appliance and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.
4.Follow Instructions-All operating and use instructions should be followed.
5.Cleaning-Unplug this video product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
6.Attachments-Do not use attachments not recommended by the video product manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
7.Water and Moisture-Do not use this video product near water-for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, and the like.
8.Accessories-Do not place this video product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The video product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the video product. Any mounting of the appliance should follow the manufacturer’s instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.
9.Ventilation-Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the video product and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked by placing the video product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This video product should never be placed near or over a radiator or heat register. This video product should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s instructions have been adhered to.
10.Power Sources-This video product should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to your home, consult your appliance dealer or local power company. For video products intended to operate from battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating instructions.
11.Grounding or Polarization-This video product is equipped with a polarized alternating-current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

12.Power-Cord Protection-Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the appliance.
13.Protective Attachment Plug - The appliance is equipped with an attachment plug having overload protection. This is a safety feature. See Instruction Manual for replacement or resetting of protective device. If replacement of the plug is required, be sure the service technician has used a replacement plug specified by the manufacturer that has the same overload protection as the original plug.
14.Outdoor Antenna Grounding-If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the video product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antennadischarge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. See Figure 1.
15.Lightning-For added protection for this video product receiver during a lightning storm, or when it is left un-attended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the video product due to lightning and power-line surges.
16.Power Lines-An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
17.Overloading-Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
18.Object and Liquid Entry-Never push objects of any kind into this video product through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the video product.

19.Servicing-Do not attempt to service this video product yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
20.Damage Requiring Service-Unplug this video product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the following conditions:
a.When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b.If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the video product.
c.If the video product has been exposed to rain or water.
d.If the video product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the video product to its normal operation.
e.If the video product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
f.When the video product exhibits a distinct change in performance-this indicates a need for service.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Marantz AV9000 THX/ DTS/Dolby Digital Surround receiver. 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 AV9000. 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 Technology was found in 1994 to commercialize 5.1 channels of discrete digital audio into home theater systems. The DTS brings you premiere quality and discrete multi-channel digital sound to movies. The DTS playback unit is a motion picture sound system designed to create full range digital sound reproduction using a theater's existing audio system.
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 theaters. Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker intended.
The Dolby Digital surround system lets you enjoy Digital TV, Digital Satellite Receiver as well as DVD, LD software in digital surround, which is the next step above Dolby Pro Logic. In comparison with Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital provides separate left surround and right surround channels, for more precise localization of sounds and a more convincing, realistic ambience. And, with Dolby Digital, all five main channels are full ranges and a subwoofer can be added to each channel ,if desired. By providing up to 5.1channels of digital audio independently, Dolby Digital lets you enjoy better sound quality and more powerful presence than conventional Dolby Surround.
THX is an exclusive set of standards and technologies established by the world-renowned film production company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX resulted from George Lucas' desire to reproduce the movie soundtrack as faithfully as possible both in the movie theater and in the home theater.
THX engineers developed patented technologies to accurately translate the sound from a movie theater environment into the home, correcting the tonal and spatial errors that occur. When the THX mode of the AV9000 is on, three distinct THX technologies are automatically added:
Re-Equalization-restores the correct tonal balance for watching a movie in a home environment. These sounds are otherwise mixed to be brighter for a large movie theater. Re-EQ compensates for this and prevents the soundtracks from being overly bright and harsh when played in a home theater.
Timbre Matching-filters the information going to the surround speakers so they more closely match the the tonal characteristics of the sound coming from the front speakers. This ensures seamless panning between the front and surround speakers.
Adaptive Decorrelation-slightly changes one surround channel's time |
ENGLISH |
and phase relationship with respect to the other surround channel. |
|
explained above, in order to be THX Ultra certified by Lucasfilm Ltd. |
|
This expands the listening position and creates with only two |
|
surround speakers the same spacious surround experience as in a |
|
movie theater with multiple surround speakers. |
|
The Marantz AV9000 was required to pass a rigorous series of quality |
|
and performance tests, in addition to incorporating the technologies |
|
THX Ultra requirements cover every aspect of performance including |
|
pre-amplifier and power amplifier performance and operation, and |
|
hundreds of other parameters in both the digital and analog domain. |
|
Movies which have been encoded in Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro |
|
Logic, stereo and Mono will all benefit from the THX mode when being |
|
viewed. The THX mode should only be activated when watching |
|
movies which were originally produced for a movie theater |
|
environment. THX need not be activated for music, movies made |
|
especially for TV, or shows such as sports programming, talk shows, |
|
etc. This is because they were originally mixed for a small room |
|
environment. |

Useful Functions with the Remote Control Unit
• Source direct
Press AMP button .. Press DIR D2 on page2 to make higher quality Hi-Fi sounds. When this function is selected, the signals are transmitted by bypassing the tone control circuitry so that they can be reproduced with higher quality.
Notes:
The surround mode is switched automatically to STEREO when the source direct function is turned on.
The source direct function is available with a digital source when the input signal is the PCM.
If a Dolby Digital signal or DTS signal input to AV9000, in this mode output from AV9000 will be muted.
• Attenuate
Press AMP button .. Press ATT D3 on page2 to attenuate the analog AUDIO signal selected with the FUNCTION buttons. When the analog input signal is too great and the voice distorts even by throttling the AV9000 VOLUME control, turn on the function. “ATT” is displayed when this function is activated.
The signal-input level is reduced by about half. Attenuate is invalid for use with the output signal of “REC OUT” (TAPE, CD-R/MD, VCR1 and DSS/VCR2 output).
This function is memorized for each input function.
