INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the Marantz SR7300 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 SR7300. 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 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.

“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 two-channel 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.

DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multi-channel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. While offering high compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTSES 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 DTSES Matrix 6.1.

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

The stereo CD is a 16-bit medium with sampling at 44.1 kHz. Professional audio has been 20- or 24-bit for some time, and there is increasing interest in higher sampling rates both for recording and for delivery into the home. Greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range. Higher sampling rates allow wider frequency response and the use of anti-alias and reconstruction filters with more favorable aural characteristics.

DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1channel sound tracks to be encoded at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVD-Video titles. When DVD-video appeared, it became possible to deliver 24-bit, 96 kHz audio into the home, but only in two channels, and with serious limitations on picture. This capability has had little use. DVD-audio allows 96/24 in six channels, but a new player is needed, and only analog outputs are provided, necessitating the use of the D/A converters and analog electronics provided in the player.

DTS 96/24 offers the following:

1. Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24 master.

2. Full backward compatibility with all existing decoders. (Existing decoders will output a 48 kHz signal)

3. No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried on DVD-video, or in the video zone of DVD-audio, accessible to all DVD players.

4. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full-motion video, for music programs and motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video.

ENGLISH

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 six-channel layout, in a way which does not diminish the subtlety and integrity of the original stereo recording.

ENGLISH

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 5.1channel 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 limitations of the speakers by full octave.

c COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT

If your DVD player or other device has component video connectors, be sure to connect them to these component video connectors on the SR7300. The SR7300 has two component video input connectors to obtain the color information (Y, C signal or other video component and one component video output connector to output it directly into the matrix decoder of the display device. By sending the pure DVD component video signal directly, the DVD signal forgoes the extra processing that normally would degrade the image. The result is vastly increased image quality, with incredibly lifelike colors and crisp detail.

CONNECTIONS

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-speaker systems, using front left and right speakers, a center speaker, surround left and right speakers, a surround back 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. Surround channel speakers need not be identical to the front channel speakers, but they should be of high quality. The surround center speaker is useful for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES. 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.

HEIGHT OF THE SPEAKER UNITS

Front left and right speakers, and a center speaker

Align the tweeters and mid-range drivers on the three front speakers on the same height as well as possible.

Surround left and right speakers, and surround back speaker

Place the surround left, right and surround back speakers higher to your ears (70cm – 1m). Also place the speakers on the same height.

Front left and right speakers

We recommend to set the front L and R speakers with 45-60 degrees from the listening position.

Center speaker

Align the front line of the center speaker with the front L/R speakers. Or place the center speaker a little backward from the line.

Surround left and right speakers

Place the speakers right beside of the listening position or a little forward.

Surround back speaker

Place the speaker behind of the listening position.

Surround back left and right speaker

Place the speaker behind of the listening position.

Subwoofer

We recommend to use a sub-woofer to have maximum bass effect. Sub-woofer bears only low frequency range so you can place it anywhere in the room.

• Use the above comments as reference when adjusting.

• If S- Direct mode , 7.1CH Input is in use, this function does not take effect.

ENGLISH

BASS MIX

• The bass mix setting is only valid when “LARGE” is set for the front speakers and “YES” is set for the subwoofer at stereo playback .

• When the “BOTH” is selected, the low frequency signal range of “LARGE” are produced simultaneously from those channels and the subwoofer channel.

In this playback mode, the low frequency range expand more uniformly through the room, but depending on the size and shape of the room, interference may result in a decrease of the actual volume of the low frequency range.

• Selection of the “MIX” will play the low frequency signal range of the channel selected with “LARGE” from that channel only.

Therefore, the low frequency signal range that are played from the subwoofer channel are only the low frequency signal range of LFE (only during Dolby Digital or DTS signal playback) and the channel specified as “SMALL” in the setup menu.

2-2 SPEAKER DISTANCE

Use this parameter to specify the distance of each speaker’s position from the listening position. The delay time is automatically calculated according to these distances. Begin by determining the ideal or most commonly used seating position in the room. This is important for the timing of the acoustics to create the proper sound space that the SR7300 and today’s sound systems are able to produce. Note that the speakers that you selected “None” for in the Speaker Config sub-menu will not appear here. (There are several useful books and special DVD and LD’s available to guide you through proper home theater configuration. If you are unsure, have your Marantz dealer perform the installation for you. They are trained professionals familiar with even the most sophisticated custom installations. Marantz recommends the WWW.CEDIA.ORG website for further information about this).

ENGLISH

SURROUND MODE

The SR7300 is equipped with many surround modes. These are provided to reproduce a variety of surround sound effects, according to the content of the source to be played. The available surround modes may be restricted depending on the input signal and speaker setup.

AUTO

When this mode is selected, the receiver determines whether the digital input signal is Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Surround EX, DTS, DTS-ES, DTS 96/24 or PCM-audio. Surround EX & DTS-ES will operate for multi channel source that has a Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES auto trigger flag in the digital signal. 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 Pro Logic II movie processing before play. PCM 96 kHz source material can be played in this mode.

Notes:

• When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD players, performing operations such as “Skip” or “Stop” may momentarily interrupt the output.

• When the signal is not decoded is input for using mode, the mode is changed to AUTO mode automatically. Refer to page 32 to confirm the available decoding mode.

2 MODE

(Dolby Digital, Pro Logic II MOVIE, Pro Logic II MUSIC, Pro Logic)

This mode is used with source materials encoded in Dolby Digital and Dolby Surround.

DOLBY DIGITAL

This mode is enabled when playing source materials encoded in Dolby Digital. Playing multi-channel encoded 5.1-channel Dolby Digital sources provides five main audio channels (left, center, right, surround left and surround right) and Low Frequency Effect channel. Dolby Digital EX decoding is not available in this mode.

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.

Pro Logic II MOVIE

This mode provides 5.1 channel surround sound from Dolby Surround encoded stereo movie sound tracks.

Pro Logic II MUSIC

This mode provides 5.1 channel surround sound from conventional stereo sources, analog or digital, such as CD, tape, FM, TV, stereo VCR, etc.

Pro Logic

This mode emulated original Dolby Pro Logic decoding (3/1 surround) suit for Dolby Surround encoded stereo movie soundtracks.

Notes:

• Pro Logic II mode is available to 2ch input signal which is encoded Dolby Digital or PCM format.

• PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

EX/ES

This mode provides 6.1 channel surround for DOLBY DIGITAL EX, DTS-ES encoded source material such as DVD. This mode cannot be used when an analog input has been selected.

Dolby Digital EX

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. Dolby Digital EX is not available in the system without surround back speaker(s).

DTS-ES (Discrete 6.1, Matrix 6.1)

DTS-ES adds the surround center channel audio to the DTS 5.1channel format to improve the acoustic positioning and makes acoustic image movement more natural with the 6.1-channel reproduction. This receiver incorporates a DTS-ES decoder, which can handle DTSES Discrete-encoded and DTS-ES Matrix-encoded program sources from DVD, etc.. DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 features digital discrete recording of all channels including the surround back channel(s) and higher quality of audio reproduction. DTS-ES is not available in the system without surround back speaker.

dts MODE

(dts, Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music)

This mode is for DTS encoded source materials such as LASER DISC, CD, and DVD. Neo:6 is to some 2 channel signal source.

dts : This mode is enabled when playing source materials encoded in dts multi channel. Playing multi-channel encoded 5.1-channel dts sources provides five main audio channels (left, center, right, surround left and surround right) and Low Frequency Effect channel. dts-ES decoding is not available in this mode. The DTS mode cannot use when an analog input has been selected.

Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music

This mode decodes 2-channel signals into 6-channel signals using high-accuracy digital matrix technology. The DTS NEO:6 decoder has near-discrete properties in the frequency characteristics of the channels as well as in channel separation. According to the signals to be played back, DTS NEO:6 uses either the NEO:6 CINEMA mode optimized for movie playback or the NEO:6 MUSIC mode optimized for music playback.

Notes:

• Neo:6 mode is available to 2ch input signal which is encoded Dolby Digital or PCM format.

• PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

MULTI CH. ST

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.

CIRCLE SURROUND II (CSII-CINEMA, CSII-MUSIC, CSII-MONO)

Circle Surround is designed to enable multi-channel surround sound playback of non-encoded and multi-channel encoded material. Backward compatibility provides listeners with up to 6.1 channels of surround performance from entire collection of music and film, including broadcast, videotape and stereo recorded music. Regarding to source material, you can select CSII-Cinema mode,

CSII-Music mode or CSII-Mono mode.

Note:

• CS II mode is available to 2ch input signal which is encoded Dolby Digital or PCM format.

• PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

VIRTUAL

This mode creates a virtualized surround sound experience from a two-speaker (front L and R) playback system playing any multichannel audio source (such as found on DVDs and digital broadcasts), including Dolby Digital, , Dolby Pro Logic or DTS.

CAUTION

NOTE for DTS signal

* Connected DVD-player, laser-disc player or CD-player needs to

support DTS-digital output. You may not be able to play some DTS source signals from certain CD players and LD players even if you connect the player to the SR7300 digitally. This is because the digital signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling frequency, or frequency response) and the SR7300 cannot recognize the signal as DTS data.

* Depending on the player used, DTS play may produce short noise.

This is not a malfunction.

* 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 by INPUT SETUP in SETUP MAIN MENU or A/D button.

* The outputs for the VCR 1 OUT, DSS/VCR 2 OUT, TAPE OUT, and

CD-R OUT output analog audio signals. Do not record from CDs or LDs that support DTS using these outputs. If you do, the DTSencoded signal will be recorded as noise.

ENGLISH

STEREO

This mode bypasses all surround processing. Stereo program sources the left and right channels play normally 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 PCM source material can be playback in stereo mode.

S (SOURCE ) - DIRECT

In the source direct mode, the tone control circuit and bass management configuration are bypassed for full range frequency response and the purist audio reproduction. 96 kHz PCM source material can be play back in this mode.

Notes:

• Internal speaker size is setup to front L/R = Large, Center = Large, Surround L/R = Large and Subwoofer = yes automatically. Tone controls and additional processing are also defeated.

• When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD players, performing operations such as “Skip” or “Stop” may momentarily interrupt the output.

NOTE for Dolby Digital Surround EX signal

* When playing Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded software in 6.1

channels, it is required to set the EX/ES mode.

* Note that some of Dolby Digital Surround EX-encoded software

does not contain the identification signal. In this case, set the EX/ ES mode manually.

NOTE for 96kHz PCM audio

* AUTO, Source- DIRECT, and STEREO modes can be used when

playing PCM signals with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz (such as from DVD-Video discs that contain 24 bit, 96 kHz audio). If such signals are input during playback in one of the other surround modes, output from SR7300 will be muted.

* Certain DVD player models inhibit digital output. For details, refer to

the player’s operation manual.

* Some DVD formatted discs featured copy protection. When using

such disc, 96 kHz PCM signal is not output from the DVD player. For details, refer to the player's operation manual.

MACRO MODE

PROGRAMMING MACROS

Macros make it possible to use a single function button to perform more complex series of operations that would normally require pressing several buttons. A single button can be programmed to perform up to 10 steps in sequence. A typical example of such a series might be as follows:

• Turn the main amplifier power ON → Switch the function to DVD → Set the Surround Mode to Virtual → Set the DVD player to PLAY.

• No signals may be transmitted during macro programming.

• The various steps that make up a macro are set initially to be sent one after another in 1 second intervals, however these intervals may be shortened to as little as 0.5 seconds or lengthened to as much as 5 seconds using the Setup mode.

• In the macro mode, the number of steps the macro is displayed the following selected function name.

• Macros may be programmed for each of the 12 function buttons as follows;

TV, DVD, VCR1, DSS, TUNER, CD, CDR, MD, TAPE, AUX1, AUX2, AMP

Press and hold the T.MODE and MENU button until the MACRO is displayed.

• MACRO and LEARN indicators are displayed blinking on the

LCD, too.

To return the USE mode, press and hold down the OK button until USE is displayed in the display.

Note:

• Erasing codes will return to the factory preset code, or there will leave empty if the button has no factory preset code.

Press the Function button for which you wish to program a series of operations. In this case, let’s use the example of the DVD player. Press the DVD Function button. The LCD will display DVD-M.

Characters displayed on LCD include the following, depending on the function button for which the macro is being programmed:

TV-M, DVD-M, VCR-M, DSS-M, TUN-M, CD-M, CDR-M, MD-M, TAP-M, AX1-M, AX2-M, AMP-M

• If a macro has already been set for the selected function button, the LCD will blink.

Press the buttons for the operations you wish to program as a macro in the sequence you want the macro to program them. For example, press DVD, PLAY.

• The number of steps in the macro is displayed on LCD and this number increases by 1 with each button pressed.

• Each function button can be programmed to perform up to 10 steps in sequence.

When you are finished programming macros, press and hold the OK button until the display returns to USE mode.

• Macros cannot be programmed for the MEMO, cursor/OK,

VOL

/ or CL buttons.

In the macro mode it is possible to program the memory to perform macros containing up to 10 steps.

• Each of the function operations (12 including CD, CD-R, etc.) can be used in a macro more than once, however for all except AMP, only the first function operation will be transmitted as a signal from the remote controller. Accordingly, within a single macro, it is not possible to switch between multiple function operations. (This is to prevent the switching of the receiver function operation.) Within a macro, the second time a function operation is used, it will only be used on the remote controller itself and no signal will be transmitted to the component.

Note:

• If, while programming, no buttons are pressed for approximately 1 minute, the remote controller will automatically return to normal mode, and no macro will be programmed in the memory.

CONFIRMING MACROS

Macros may be confirmed using following procedure.

Press and hold the T.MODE and MENU button until the MACRO is displayed on the LCD.

• LEARN and MACRO is displayed blinking.

Press the Function button to be confirmed. Let’s use the example of the DVD player, by pressing the DVD Function button.

• DVD-M, LEARN and MACRO is displayed blinking.

EDITING MACROS

Macros may be edited using following procedure.

Press and hold the T.MODE and MENU button until the MACRO is displayed on the LCD.

• LEARN and MACRO is displayed blinking.

Press the Function button to be changed. Let’s use the example of the DVD player, by pressing the DVD Function button.

• DVD-M, LEARN and MACRO is displayed blinking.

Press the Cursor / button to select the number of macro to be edited.

• The programmed operation is displayed after the number of macro is displayed.

• The number of macro can be changed with the cursor button .

• To rewrite an existing macro step, simply press the button for the new step. The old step will be erased and rewritten with the new step.

• To insert a new step in between existing steps in a macro, after step the new step. The numbers of the other steps will be adjusted accordingly to accommodate the new step. Since only 10 steps may be stored in any macro, the tenth step will be erased if an step is inserted when the total number of steps is already 10.

• To erase a step in a macro, after step the step to be erased and press the CL button.

Press the OK button to return step 1.

To return the USE mode, press and hold down the OK button until USE is displayed in the display.
