Features
HDAM®SA3 Module
This unit includes the HDAM®SA3 which had been developed for high-end models. The HDAM®SA3 is incorporated into many components, such as the current feedback phono equalizer, balance buffer, and input buffer.
Constant Current Feedback Phono Equalizer
This unit incorporates the constant current feedback phono equalizer which had been developed for high-end models. This equalizer, developed by marantz, has the advantages of both NF-type and CR-type phono equalizers, and it supports both MM and MC cartridges.
Current Feedback Balance Buffer Amplifi er
The Current Feedback Balance Buffer Amplifi er, which incorporates the HDAM®SA3 amp module, is provided with this unit, in order to faithfully convey signals from Super Audio CD players and D/A converters that have high­quality balanced output.
Dedicated Input Buffers for All Line Input Jacks
Each CD, LINE 1, LINE 2, RECORDER 1, and RECORDER 2 input jack has its own input buffer amplifi er that incorporates an HDAM®SA3. These amplifi ers' arrangement are circuit designed close to the respective jacks. Therefore, each input signals are faithfully conveyed without interference between them.
Linear Control Volume
The control knob had adopted the high-end model design concept. For better S/N ratio, the MAS6116 from Micro Analog Systems and the HDAM®SA3 have been combined, which enables smooth adjustment in the range of 0 to -100 dB in units of ±0.5 dB.
Tone Control Amplifi er
The electronic tone control amplifi er is provided for adjustment of bass (low frequency) and treble (high frequency) sound in units of 2 dB in the range of -8 to +8 dB.
Dual-Amplifi er Structure
Amplifi er of this unit has dual structure, voltage amplifi er and power buffer, adopting high-end model design concept. This dual structure enables the power buffer amplifi er to drive the speakers powerfully, preventing infl uence from the back electromagnetic force from the speakers. The voltage amplifi er drives the power buffer with superlow distortion.
New-Designed Current Feedback Power Amplifi er
To minimize noise of power amplifi er, circuit design with lower impedance is incorporated. This enables the user to obtain natural acoustics.
F.C.B.S.
A Floating Control Bus System (F.C.B.S.) enables the user to connect up to four PM-11S3 units, making a diversity of applications possible with complete bi-amp and multichannel connections. Moreover, a ground loop is not formed among multiple PM-11S3 units connected; therefore, sound quality is not adversely affected.
BI-AMP Mode
Complete bi-amp connection proposed by marantz enables a level of reproduction of the acoustic fi eld never before achieved. Synchronized operation of two PM-11S3 units is made possible by F.C.B.S. (Floating Control Bus System) connection, with each PM-11S3 in Bi-Amp mode working as a monaural integrated amplifi er.
Power Amplifi er Direct In Mode
In this mode, this unit works as a power amplifi er. This mode will be useful in home theater systems.
Display
This unit adopts an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) to display the input source and volume level. Compared with other types of display panels, an LCD requires less drive power and generates less radiation noise, which minimizes any adverse effect on sound quality.

Advanced connections
F.C.B.S. connection
The marantz F.C.B.S. (Floating Control Bus System) is the high quality sound system for link control between multiple PM-11S3 units (up to 4 units). Each unit is controlled via its ID number registered beforehand. The ID numbers need to be set to an operating unit (master) and a subordinate unit (slave) receiving the command from the master. For slave units, register ID numbers in the order of command reception from the master. Once registered the ID numbers, the units will enable link control operations such as input selection, volume control, on/off selection of muting, display, tone control, etc. Furthermore, F.C.B.S. connection of multiple units has the feature that switches this unit's output from stereo to monaural so that the unit can works as a monaural output amplifier. Follow the respective instructions to make the necessary settings.

In order to enjoy Super Audio CD multi-channel sound with the best possible acoustics, it is recommended to position speakers as specified in ITU-R BS.775-1 of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). Super Audio CD multi­channel discs are recorded and mixed so as to achieve the optimum effect with a speaker system laid out as specified in ITU-R BS.775-1.
•With Super Audio CD multi-channel discs, the music signals are basically recorded using 5 channels (3 - 6 channels sometimes), but in some cases, LFE (for subwoofer) is recorded as a sixth channel.
•Each disc indicates how many channels have been recorded on it.
•The basic layout is 3 speakers in the front and 2 in the back since multi-channel discs usually have 5 channels. The 2 front, 1 center and 2 surround (rear) speakers should be set in a circle around the listening point. If using speakers of differing sizes, adjust volume balance from the amplifier.
•The location of the subwoofer in the figure is just for explanatory purposes. It can be located anywhere in the room. For connection and positioning instructions, see the instruction manual that came with the subwoofer.

Troubleshooting
MM/MC cartridge select
There are two types--MM (Moving Magnet) and MC (Moving Coil)--of cartridges for turntable. As the output levels for these two types of cartridges differ, the setting of the phono equalizer that is mounted in this unit must be switched according to the type of cartridge for your turntable. For switching, use the PHONO MC button on this unit.
Speaker impedance
This is certain-rated resistance of the speaker set to an alternating current and expressed in ohms. The smaller the impedance, the greater the output. However, load on the amplifier is increased. Use speakers whose impedance is supported by this unit
Bi-wiring Connection
This method of connecting a speaker by using two speaker cables enables separate transmission of treble and bass signals. This enables playback with minimal interference between the high-range speaker unit and the low-range speaker unit.
Protection Circuit
This is a function to prevent damage to components within the power supply when an abnormality such as an overload or excess voltage occurs for any reason. In this unit, the power indicator blinks and the unit enters standby mode when an abnormality occurs.
Troubleshooting
n About the protection circuit
This unit is equipped with a protection circuit to protect the amplifier circuits and speaker system from damage. If the protection circuit is activated, the sound is instantly muted. In this case, the message “PROTECT” flashes on the display panel, and the STANDBY indicator also flashes. To deactivate the protection circuit, turn the unit off then back on again after about 1 minute or more.
At power on
For about 8 seconds after the power is turned on, the protection circuit is activated, muting the sound to give the amplifier circuits time to stabilize. Once the amplifier circuits stabilize, the protection circuit is released, and audio is enabled.
In the event of overcurrent
The protection circuit is activated if current exceeding a certain level is detected, which can happen if excessive signal flow is input to the amplifier or if the unit is connected to a speaker system of less than 4 Ω impedance. The protection circuit is also activated if a speaker cable shorts. In such cases, the message “PROTECT” flashes on the display, and the volume is automatically reduced. After approximately 8 seconds, the protection circuit is released. Therefore, the volume needs readjusting to continue normal use. If the overcurrent continues, the amplifier shuts itself OFF, and the STANDBY indicator flashes. To deactivate the protection circuit, turn the unit off then back on again after about 1 minute or more.
If the main-amplifier overheats
The protection circuit is activated if the temperature of the main amplifier section rises above a certain level, which can happen if the amplifier is continuously used with excessive signal flow being input to it. The protection circuit is also activated when the specified operating temperature is exceeded, which can happen if the vents on top of the amplifier are covered or if the amplifier is installed on a cramped audio rack. In such a case, the STANDBY indicator flashes, and the volume is automatically reduced. After approximately 8 seconds, the protection circuit is released. Therefore, the volume needs readjusting to continue normal use. If the temperature does not sufficiently fall within a certain amount of time after the protection circuit activation, the amplifier shuts itself OFF, and the STANDBY indicator flashes. To deactivate the protection circuit, turn the unit off, let it stand until it cools down, then turn it ON again.
In the event of amplifier trouble
The protection circuit is activated, and the power is automatically shut OFF, if an abnormality is detected in the power circuit. The same happens if the main fuse inside the amplifier blows. In such cases, the STANDBY indicator flashes. Turn the unit off then after several minutes turn it on again. If the display does not light up, and the STANDBY indicator remains flashing after the unit is turned on again, the unit may be in failure.
Advanced operation TroubleshootingExplanation termsAdvanced connections
If excessive ultrabass signals are input
The protection circuit is also activated if ultrabass signals are input. In such a case, the STANDBY indicator flashes, and the volume is automatically reduced. After approximately 8 seconds, the protection circuit is released. Therefore, the volume needs readjusting to continue normal use. If excessive ultrabass signal input continues or if DC voltage is detected owing to trouble with the amplifier, the amplifier shuts itself OFF, and the STANDBY indicator flashes. To deactivate the protection circuit, turn the unit off then back on again after about 1 minute or more.
