PRECAUTIONS
The following precautions should be taken when operating the
equipment.
WARNINGS
Do not expose the equipment to rain or moisture.
Do not remove the cover from the equipment.
Do not push anything inside the equipment through the
ventilation holes.
Do not handle the mains lead with wet hands.
EQUIPMENT MAINS WORKING SETTING
Your Marantz product has been prepared to comply with the
household power and safety requirements that exist in your area.
SR-14mkII can be powered by 230 V AC only.
IMPORTANT:
This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 Amp plug.
To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 13A, A.S.T.A. or BSI
approved type.
3. Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut
off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 13A. If a
plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should
not be greater than 5A.
Note:
The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock
hazard should it be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
BLUE—“NEUTRAL” (“N”)
BROWN—“LIVE” (“L”)
1. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter “N” or coloured BLACK.
2. The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter “L” or coloured RED.
3. Do not connect either wires to the earth terminal in the plug which is
marked by the letter “E” or by the safety earth symbol or coloured
green or green-and-yellow.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is
clamped over the sheath of the lead — not simply over the two wires.
COPYRIGHT
Recording and playback of any material may require consent. For
further information refer to the following:
— Copyright Act 1956
— Dramatic and Musical Performers Act 1958
— Performers Protection Acts 1963 and 1972
— any subsequent statutory enactments and orders
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
When siting the equipment ensure that:
— the ventilation holes are not covered;
— air is allowed to circulate freely around the equipment
— it is on a vibration free-surface;
— it will not be exposed to interference from an external source;
— it will not be exposed to excessive heat, cold, moisture or dust;
— it will not be exposed to direct sunlight;
— it will not be exposed to electrostatic discharges
Never place heavy objects on the equipment.
If a foreign body or water does enter the equipment, contact your
nearest dealer or service centre.
Do not pull out the plug by pulling on the mains lead, hold the plug.
It is advisable when leaving the house, or during a thunderstorm, to
disconnect the equipment from the mains supply.
PRECAUTIONS IN CONNECTION
n Be sure to unplug the power cable from the AC outlet or turn
off the POWER/STANDBY switch before proceeding with any
connection.
n Connect one cable at a time observing the “input” and
“output”.
This will avoid any cross connection between channels and
signal inputs and outputs.
n Insert the plugs securely. Incomplete connection may result in
noise.
n Prior to connecting other audio and video equipment to the
SR-14mkII, please read their owner’s manuals.
INSTALLATION
If this unit or another electronic device incorporating a
microcomputer is used at the same time with the tuner or television,
picture disturbance or noise may occur. In such a case, install the
unit according to the following guide points.
n Separate the unit as far as possible from the tuner or
television.
n Place the antenna wire for the tuner or TV apart from the
power cable and audio and video connection cables of this
unit.
n Since the phenomenon is likely to occur when using an
indoor antenna and/or 300-ohm feeder wire, we
recommend using an outdoor antenna and 75-ohm coaxial
cable.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Marantz SR-14mkII 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 SR-14mkII. 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
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 SR-14mkII 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 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
and phase relationship with respect to the other surround channel.
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 SR-14mkII was required to pass a rigorous series of
quality and performance tests, in addition to incorporating the
technologies explained above, in order to be THX Ultra certified by
Lucasfilm Ltd.
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.
“Lucasfilm®” and “THX®” are registered trademarks of Lucasfilm Ltd.
THX Surround EX - Dolby Digital Surround EX is a joint development
of Dolby Laboratories and the THX division of Lucasfilm Ltd.
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been encoded with
Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are able to reproduce an extra
channel which has been added during the mixing of the program.
This channel, called Surround Back, places sounds behind the
listener in addition to the currently available front left, front center,
front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer channels.
This additional channel provides the opportunity for more detailed
imaging behind the listener and brings more depth, spacious
ambience and sound localization than ever before.
Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital Surround EX
technology when released into the home consumer market may
exhibit a Dolby Digital Surround EX logo on the packaging.
A list of movies created using this technology can be found on the
Dolby web site at
http ://www.dolby.com.
“SURROUND EX ™” is a trademark of Dolby Laboratories. Used
under authorization.
Dolby Digital lets you enjoy Digital TV, Digital Satellite 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 can provide
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 can be full ranged 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.
“Dolby”, “AC-3”, “Pro Logic” and the double-D symbol are
trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.
DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels of discrete
digital audio into home theater systems.
DTS brings you premium quality discrete multi-channel digital sound
to both movies and music.
DTS is a multi-channel sound system designed to create full range
digital sound reproduction.
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 and home theaters.
Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker
intended.
DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or music on of
DVD’s, LD’s, and CD’s.

HDCD® (High Definition Compatible Digital ®) is a patented process
for delivering on Compact Disc the full richness and details of the
original microphone feed.
HDCD encoded CDs sound better because they are encoded with 20bits of real musical information as compared to 16-bits for all other
CDs.
HDCD overcomes the limitation of the 16-bit CD format by using a
sophisticated system to encode the additional four bits onto the CD
while remaining completely compatible with the CD format.
When listening to HDCD recordings, you hear more dynamic range,
a focused 3-D sound stage, and extremely natural vocal and musical
timbre. With HDCD, you get the body, depth and emotion of the
original performance not a flat, digital imitation.

OPERATION OF REMOTE CONTROL UNIT
1. Remote control
The distance between the transmitter of the remote control unit and
the IR SENSOR of the SR-14mkII should be less than about 15 feet. If
the transmitter is pointed to a direction other than the IR SENSOR or if
there is an obstacle between them, remote control may not be
possible.

60°
Remote control unit (RC5000i)
SR-14mkII
2. Receiving the remote control codes
The RC5000i can learn most of the remote control codes from various
equipment, it learns the full word length of the code it is receiving.
Due to the sensitivity of the receiving LED the RC5000i may also
“learn” noise from fluorescent lights, etc. which can quickly fill up the
memory of the RC5000i.
In order to maximize the memory capacity of the RC5000i please pay
close attention to the following:
(1) Aim the transmitting remote control at a direct line of sight to
the RC5000i remote receiver eye.
(2) Keep 2 inches between transmitting remote and the RC5000i
receiving eye.

SPEAKERS SETUP AND LEVELS SETUP
SPEAKERS SETUP
Speakers size
The first few adjustments tell the SR-14mkII which type of speakers
are in use. This is important as it adjusts the settings that determine
which speakers receive low frequency (bass) information.
If you use full THX speaker systems which are approved by LUCASFILM
LTD, set to the SMALL/THX position for front L/R ch., center ch. , surr. L/
R ch., surr.back ch, and then select subwoofer =YES.
In turn, these settings will determine which speakers receive low
frequency (bass) information.
For the purpose of establishing proper bass reproduction, use the
LARGE settings if the speaker being used at any position is a
traditional full-range loudspeaker that is capable of reproducing
sound below 80 Hz.
Use the SMALL setting for smaller, frequency-limited satellite
speakers that are not able to reproduce sounds below 80Hz. Note
that when “small” speakers are used, a subwoofer is required to
reproduce low frequency sounds.
Low frequency sounds from every channel in your system can be fed
to a single subwoofer, since low frequency sounds are nondirectional and not location sensitive. The SR-14mkII will
automatically send low frequency signals from any channel set to
“SMALL” to the Low Frequency Effects (Subwoofer) channel.
Remember that the “large” and “small” descriptions do not refer to
the actual physical size of the speakers, but to their ability to
reproduce low frequency sounds.
If you are in doubt as to which category describes your speakers, consult
the specifications in the speakers’ owner’s manual, or ask your dealer.
SPEAKER TYPE AND POSITIONING FOR THX SURROUND EX
Type
THX suggests the use of pair of dipolar speakers for the Sb channels
but a pair of monopole type speaker may also be used.
Positioning
It has been found that an angle of 150° from the Front Center speaker
is a good starting point for establishing the location of Sbl and Sbr
speakers. This is suggested from AES preprint #4860. The optimum
position for Surround Back speakers is somewhat room dependent.
The Surround Back channel should be enveloping but not lost in the sound
of the side speakers. Most dipoles have an arrow on them to indicate their
orientation towards the screen. So for the side dipole, the arrows point
forward. For the back dipoles, the arrows should point towards each other
to achieve the correct acoustical phasing in the room:

Notes:
• The setup level for each channel is memorized for reproduction
in all surround mode.
• These levels are common for all surround modes, except 6CHINPUT mode.
• In order to correctly set the output levels, use a hand-held
Sound Pressure Level meter (SPL), set to C-Weighting and Slow
averaging.
• A Radio Shack ® SPL meter (catalogue number 330 - 2055)
works well.
• Using the internal channel noise generators, set each channel so
that you read 75 dB SPL from each channel when seated at the
listening position.
LEVELS SETUP 2/2 (BASS PEAK LEVEL LIMIT)
With Dolby Digital and DTS , not only the LFE (Low Frequency
Effects), but also the bass of all channels can be heard from the
Subwoofer or Large-speakers. This procedure prevents these
speakers from becoming too loud and creating an unbalanced
sound. Since the sound is output at a loud volume, perform this

Example:
When the digital output of a DVD player is connected to Digital 4
(input jack) of the SR-14mkII and an AC-3 RF output and optical
digital output from a LD player are connected to AC-3 RF(Dig.6) and
Dig.1.
1. Move the cursor on the DVD with ^ or v button, and select
DIGITAL4 with <, > button.
2. Move the cursor on the “LD” with ^ or v button, and select RF with
< button, and select DIGITAL1 with > button.(Move the cursor with ^ or v button, input is determine.)
Notes
• The TUNER and AUX are fixed to the analog input, and cannot
be selected for any digital input.
The RF input is available for LD , and can be linked with Digital
1,2,3 ,4 or 5.
If the RF input is linked with any Digital input, once the RF signal
is not supplied, the SR-14mkII will switch from the RF input to the
digital input automatically.
• If you connect an LD player, you should connect not only the RF
output (if it has one) but also the Digital output.
Laser Discs which are not encoded with Dolby Digital will then
send the sound through the digital output (PCM audio). If the
disc you are playing is old and doesn’t have a digital soundtrack,
you must connect the L/R analog outputs on the laser disc player
to the laser disc analog inputs on the SR-14mkII.
• When a DTS-LD or DTS-CD is playing, this setup is not available.
This is to avoid noise being generated from the analog input.
In this case, the DTS audio must be played through the player’s
digital output to the digital input on the SR-14mkII. This is
because the DTS soundtracks replace the standard PCM
soundtracks on DTS discs.
• The SR-14mkII does not switch from digital input to analog input
or vice versa automatically.
In case both digital and analog inputs are connected to the SR14mkII,if you desire to switch to analog input temporarily, you
can do so by pressing the A/D button.

RDS OPERATION
Now in use in many countries, RDS (Radio Data System) is a
description of the station’s programming hidden space in the FM
signal.
Your new receiver is equipped with RDS to assist in the selection of
FM stations using station and network names, rather than broadcast
frequencies. Additional RDS functions include the ability to search
for programme types.
RADIO TEXT
Some RDS stations broadcast RADIOTEXT, which is additional
information on the station and programme being broadcast.
RADIOTEXT information appears as ‘running’ text in the display.
RADIOTEXT is transmitted character-by- character by the radio
station. As a result of that it may take some time until the entire text
has been completely received.
RDS DISPLAY
When a receiver is tuned to an FM station that is transmitting RDS
data, the Front Panel Information Display will automatically show the
station name or RDS TEXT in place of the typical display of the
station’s broadcast frequency.
To change the display, press the remote unit Display button at
Control mode.

DIALOGUE NORMALIZATION MESSAGE
Dialogue Normalization (Dial Norm) is a feature of Dolby Digital.
When playing back software which has been encoded in Dolby
Digital, sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel
display which will read “Dial Norm X dB” (X being a numeric value).
Dialogue Normalization serves to let you know if the source material
has been recorded at a higher or lower level than usual. For example,
if you see the following message: “Dial Norm + 4 dB” in the front panel
display, to keep the overall output level constant just turn down the
volume control by 4 dB. In other words, the source material that you
are listening to has been recorded 4 dB louder than usual.
If you do not see a message or see “Dial Norm 0 dB” in the front panel
display, then no adjustment of the volume control is necessary.

Caution for DTS signal:
This signal can be played when the connected DVD-player, laserdisc player or CD-player is capable of DTS-digital output. For
details, refer to the player's operation manual.
Depending on the player used, DTS play may produce noise. If
that happens, set the Surround mode to DTS.
Playing a DTS-CD or DTS laser disc causes the player’s analog
output terminal to output noise. Before playing DTS sources, be
sure to connect the player’s digital output to SR-14’s digital input.
Be careful when connecting the output of these players to analog
audio input.
Note that SR-14mkII has the following restrictive functions built in
to reduce noise emission as much as possible.
If DTS is selected while in the Surround mode, digital input cannot
be switched to analog input. When the analog input function has
been selected, Surround mode cannot be switched to DTS.
While signals from DTS-laser disc or CD are playing in another
Surround mode, you cannot switch to digital input or from digital
input to analog input.
Caution for 96kHz PCM-audio signal:
This signal can be played when a DVD-player or DAT-player
connected to SR-14mkII is capable of 96 kHz PCM output. For
details, refer to the player’s operation manual.
The signal can be played when STEREO or AUTO has been selected
for the Surround mode.
Some DVD formatted discs featured copy protect. When using such
disc, 96 kHz PCM signal is not output from the DVD player. For
details, refer to the player's operation manual.
Caution for HDCD signal:
This signal can be played in “AUTO” and “S-Direct” mode.
Depending on the CD-player, HDCD signal is not output correctly.
