proceeding with any connection.

• Connect one cable at a time observing the
“input” and “output”.

This will avoid any cross connection between
channels and signal inputs and outputs.

• Insert the plugs securely. Incomplete connection
may result in noise.

• Prior to connecting other audio and video
equipment to the SR4400, 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.

• Separate the unit as far as possible from the
television.

• Place the antenna wire for the tuner or TV apart
from the power cable and audio and video
connection cables of this unit.

• 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.

CAUTIONS ON INSTALLATION

For heat dispersal, leave at least 20 cm/8 inch of
space between the top, back and sides of this unit
and the wall or other components.

• Do not obstruct the ventilation holes.

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Marantz SR4400
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 SR4400.
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

DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1
channels of discrete digital audio into home
theater systems.
DTS brings you premium quality discrete multi­channel 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.

“DTS” and “DTS Digital Surround” are registered
trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

The advantages of discrete multichannel systems
over matrix are well known.
But even in homes equipped for discrete
multichannel, there remains a need for high-quality
matrix decoding. This is because of the large library
of matrix surround motion pictures available on disc
and on VHS tape; and analog television
broadcasts.
The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center
channel and a mono surround channel from two­channel matrix stereo material. It is better than a simple
matrix in that it includes steering logic to improve

separation, but because of its mono, band-limited
surround it can be disappointing to users accustomed
to discrete multichannel.

Neo:6 offers several important improvements as
follow,

• Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of
matrix decoding from stereo matrix material.
Users with 6.1 and 5.1 systems will derive six
and five separate channels, respectively,
corresponding to the standard home-theater
speaker layouts.

• Neo:6 technology allows various sound
elements within a channel or channels to be
steered separately, and in a way which follows
naturally from the original presentation.

• Neo:6 offers a music mode to expand stereo
nonmatrix recordings into the five- or six­channel layout, in a way which does not diminish
the subtlety and integrity of the original stereo
recording.

DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multi­channel digital signal format developed by Digital
Theater Systems Inc. While offering high
compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital
Surround format, DTS-ES Extended Surround
greatly improves the 360-degree surround
impression and space expression thanks to
further expanded surround signals. This format
has been used professionally in movie theaters
since 1999.
In addition to the 5.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C,
SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also
offers the SB (Surround Back) channel for surround
playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES
Extended Surround includes two signal formats
with different surround signal recording methods,
as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1.

“DTS”, “DTS-ES Extended Surround” and “Neo:6”
are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

Dolby Digital identifies the use of Dolby Digital
(AC-3) audio coding for such consumer formats
as DVD and DTV. As with film sound, Dolby Digital
can provide up to five full-range channels for left,
center, and right screen channels, independent
left and right surround channels, and a sixth ( ".1")

channel for low-frequency effects.

Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is an improved matrix
decoding technology that provides better spatiality
and directionality on Dolby Surround program
material; provides a convincing three-dimensional
soundfield on conventional stereo music
recordings; and is ideally suited to bring the
surround experience to automotive sound. While
conventional surround programming is fully
compatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic II
decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded
specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic II
playback, including separate left and right
surround channels. (Such material is also
compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders.)

Dolby Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output
channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done
using a matrix decoder that derives three
surround channels from the two in the original
recording. For best results, Dolby Digital EX
should be used with movies soundtracks recorded
with Dolby Digital Surround EX.

Circle Surround II (CS-II) is a powerful and
versatile multi-channel technology. CS-II is
designed to enable up to 6.1 multi-channel
surround sound playback from mono, stereo, CS
encoded sources and other matrix encoded
sources. In all cases the decoder extends it into 6
channels of surround audio and a LFE/subwoofer
signal. The CS-II decoder creates a listening
environment that places the listener “inside” music
performances and dramatically improves both hi-fi
audio conventional surround-encoded video
material. CS-II provides composite stereo rear
channels to greatly improve separation and image
positioning – adding a heightened sense of
realism to both audio and A/V productions.
CS-II is packed with other useful feature like dialog
clarity (SRS Dialog) for movies and cinema-like bass
enrichment (TruBass). CS-II can enable the dialog
to become clearer and more discernable in movies
and it enables the bass frequencies contained in the
original programming to more closely achieve low
frequencies – overcoming the low frequency

The marked SWITCHED provides power only
when the SR4400 is turned on and is useful for
components which you use every time you play
your system.

Cautions:

• In order to avoid potential turn-off thumps,
anything plugged in here should be powered up
before the SR4400 is turned on.

• The capacity of this AC outlet is 100W. Do not
connect devices that consume electricity more
than the capacity to this AC outlet. If total power
consumption of connected devices exceeds the
capacity, protection circuit shuts down the power
supply.

PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE
CONTROLLER

The remote controller RC5400SR must be
programmed to use the codes for your appliances
of different brands. This is done by keying in a 4­digit code or by scanning the codes until the
correct one is found. We recommend to using the
4-digit code. This mode is faster and more
reliable. The code scanning method should be
used only if you cannot find the code for one of
your appliances. The codes are listed at the end
of this book.

Important:

• Use the remote control buttons for programming,
not the buttons of the receiver or other
appliances.

• Some codes may be not match your equipment.
In this case, your equipment cannot be
controlled with this remote controller.

PROGRAMMING WITH THE 4-DIGIT CODE

1.

Press and hold down the function button for
the appliance which should be controlled and
press SETUP until the indicator blinks twice.

2.

Press the 4-digit code for appliance (code
table at the end of this book)

3.

When the procedure is successful, the
indicator will blink twice.

Note:

• If the indicator did not blink twice, then repeat
steps 1 through 2 and try entering the same code
again.
