1. INTRODUCTION / SPECIFICATIONS
INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the DH9300 Music Server from Marantz. The
DH9300 is a revolutionary way of filling your home with music.
Your Music Server stores and catalogues your music
collection, allowing you to select any album or track at the
press of a key. You can browse through your albums and
tracks using convenient on-screen menus displayed on
your television, showing full album, track, and artist names
downloaded from the Internet CD database. Your Music
Server also lets you organise your music collection and
create selections for different occasions to suit your mood.
Incredible capacity
Your Music Server is a hard disk based audio system which
can store hundreds of hours of music, all with the
convenience of instant access, at the touch of a key.
Convenient TV screen
Play music, record CDs, or organise your library using
convenient on-screen menus which show the full album,
artist, and track names, allowing you to select the one you
want with a few simple selections.
Internet access for track listings
Your Music Server records the CDs from your music
collection at faster than real time. It then automatically
connects to a dedicated Internet CD database via the builtin modem or Ethernet connection. This database provides
album and track details for a wide range of CDs. This
information can be downloaded and stored with each CD
you record, allowing you to select any item in your music
collection by album name, artist name, track name, or
genre, giving you total flexibility in the way you access and
control your music collection.
Create your own playlists
Your Music Server allows you to compile personal playlists
and then automatically play tracks from the playlist you
have selected. Playlists let you customise your Music
Server for each member of the family, or for matching the
music to the occasion or mood.
Instant access, irrespective of your music collection
Whether you select a track by title, album, artist, or genre,
your Music Server locates it instantly and plays it at the
press of a key. All this is achieved with an extremely simple
and intuitive user interface, operated using a few keys on
the front panel or remote control.
