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

with your Marantz A/V specialist dealer.
DESCRIPTION
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 DVD’s,
LD’s and CD’s.
FEATURES
• Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound decoding, plus Dolby Pro
Logic II decoding and a variety of additional surround modes.
• 96 kHz/ 24 bit decoding for highest possible fidelity and bandwidth,
and high-resolution playback of 96 kHz/ 24 bit PCM audio sources.
• 70 watts to each of the five main channels; the power amp section
features advanced, premium high-storage power supply capacitors,
and fully discrete output stages housed in cast aluminum heat
sinks.
• 5.1 channel pre-amp outputs for connection to external components
such as a subwoofer and external power amplifiers.
• 2 Digital outputs for connection to CD-R or MD.
• High-quality AM / FM tuner with 50 station presets.
• Source Direct switch bypasses, tone controls and bass management
for purest sound quality.
• S-video and composite video switch.
]
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 sound 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 5.1 channels of digital audio independently. Dolby
Digital lets you enjoy better sound quality and more powerful presence
than conventional Dolby Surround.
Pro Logic II, the next generation in Dolby Surround Pro Logic
technology, brings the excitement of surround sound to any existing
stereo mix, while making existing Dolby Surround mixes sound more
like discrete 5.1-channel surround sound. It works with CDs, VHS
tapes and TV shows, and MP3 files and radio broadcasts-converting
all of these source to surround sound, without the artifacts by other
matrix-decoding technologies.

CENTER : Select the type of center speaker with or button.
SURROUND: Select the type of surround speakers with or
button.
SPEAKERS SETUP
The home theater system you already have installed should function
provided that there are left, center and right front speakers, left and
right rear/surround speakers and a subwoofer. For best results we
recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical
or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front
sound stage as the action moves from side to side.
Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80 % of the
dialog from a typical motion picture emanates from the center channel.
It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers.
Rear channel speakers need not be identical to the front channel
speakers, but they should be of high quality.
One of the benefits of both Dolby Digital (AC-3) and DTS is that
surround channels are discrete full range, while they were frequency
limited in earlier “Pro Logic’ type systems.
Bass effects are an important part of home theater. For optimal
enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as it is optimized for low
frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers,
however, they may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper setting
of the switches in the menu system.
SUB WOOFER
LEFT
CENTER
RIGHT
S-WOOFER: Select the subwoofer speaker YES or NO with or
button.
Notes:
The SUBWOOFER cannot be set to NO when the front speakers
are set to SMALL.
This speaker size setup is not effective when the SOURCEDIRECT is selected.
SPK DIST (Speaker distance)
Use this parameter to specify the distance of the speaker’s position
from the listener.
The delay time is automatically set according to these distances.
UNITS:Select speaker with or button, and input each speaker’s
distance with or button.
When the input for each speaker’s distance has been finished,
and press the OK or button.
SURROUND-L
If possible, mount the surround speakers on the walls to the sides of
the viewing area, 2-3 feet above seated viewers, firing straight across
at each other.
SURROUND-R
SPK SIZE (Speake size)
This menu enters the information about which type of speakers will be
used for each channel.
In turn, these settings will determine which speakers receive low
frequency 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 100 Hz and you are not using a subwoofer.
Use the SMALL setting for smaller, frequency-limited speakers that are not
able to reproduce sounds below 100Hz and you are using a subwoofer.
Low frequencies will be diverted from the speaker to the subwoofer.
Note that when “small” speakers are used it is advisable to install a
separate subwoofer, especially if you wish to appreciate the full
impact of a good home theater soundtrack.
If the Surround speakers or Center speaker will not be used, set
NONE for each speaker. The NONE setting will send the audio for the
surround channels or Center channel to the front left/right speakers.
Notes :
Placement beyond that distance is beyond the range of the
automatic time delay feature.
The delay feature does not function in the SOURCE-DIRECT and
decoding of 96 kHz sources.
CH LEVEL (Channel level)
Desired channels can be selected by pressing or button.
Each channel level will be adjusted by pressing or button.

SURROUND MODES
The SR4200 incorporates digital signal processors (DSP) which can reproduce various surround effects you experience in concert halls and movie
theaters, etc. These Surround Modes, are provided to reproduce a variety of surround sound effects, according to the content of the source to be played.
Surroud mode
1. AUTO
2. STEREO
3. 2
MOVIE
MUSIC
PRO LOGIC
4. DTS
FEATURES
When this mode is selected, the receiver determines whether the digital input signal is Dolby Digital, PCM-audio or DTS.
Note:
When a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is input, the number of channels for which the corresponding signal is encoded will be
played.
Inputting a Dolby Digital two channel signal with Dolby surround status automatically subjects that signal to ProLogicII
processing before play.
96 kHz source material can be playback in this mode and 96k will be shown in the display.
This mode bypasses all surround processing.
Stereo program sources the left and right channels play normaly when PCM-audio or analog stereo is input.
With Dolby Digital and DTS sources, the 5.1 multi-channels are converted to two channel stereo. 96 kHz source material can be
playback in this mode and 96k will be shown in the display.
This mode is used with source materials encoded in Dolby Digital and Dolby Surround.
Dolby Pro Logic II brings the excitement of surround sound to any stereo mix, while making existing Dolby Surround mixes
sound more like discrete 5.1 channels Surround sound.
Dolby Pro Logic II has below 3 modes.
This mode provides 5.1 channel surround sound from Dolby Surround encoded stereo movie sound tracks.
This mode provides 5.1 channel surround sound from conventional stereo sources, analog or digital, such as CD, tape, FM,
TV, stereo VCR, etc.
This mode emulated original Dolby Pro Logic decoding (3/1 surround) suit for Dolby Surround encoded stereo movie
soundtracks.
Note:
PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.
When a signal in another format is input, output will be muted.
This mode is for DTS encoded source materials such as LASER DISC, CD, and DVD.
The DTS mode cannot be used when an Analog input has been selected. When the signal in another digital format is input,
output will be muted.
5. MOVIE
HALL
MATRIX
GAME
6. VIRTUAL
7. 5-STEREO
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 the SR4200’s digital
input. Be careful when connecting the output of these players to
analog audio input.
Note that the SR4200 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.
These modes provide surround effect processing from each input source material.
They will produce theater, concert hall and stadium like atmospheres. Select as your taste desires.
Note:
PCM-audio (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz) and analog source material can playback in this mode.
This mode create the virtual surround sound with the front right and left speakers.
Note:
PCM-audio (32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz) and analog source material can playback in this mode.
This mode is used to create a wider, deeper and more natural soundstage from two channel source material.
This is done by feeding the left channel signal to both left front and left surround speaker and the right channel signal to both
right front and right surround speaker. Additionally, the center channel reproduces a mix of the right and left channel.
Note:
The 96 kHz sampling frequency mutes output.
Caution for 96kHz PCM-audio signal:
This signal can be played when a DVD-player or DAT-player
