use in hi-fi AV systems.
• It is a high-power power amplifier with all-discrete circuit
configuration with rated outputs of 125 W/8-ohms.

so its power can be controlled from a MARANTZ preampli­fier or integrated amplifier (MARANTZ remote control com­patible products).
• The power of the unit can be switched by remote control
using a video signal or DC signal.
