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 SR8200 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 SR8200 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.
Lucasfilm and THX are trademarks or registered trademarks of
Lucasfilm Ltd. ©Lucasfilm Ltd. & TM. Surround EX is a jointly
developed technology of THX and Dolby Laboratories, Inc. and is a

authorization.
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.
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 trademarks of Digital Theater
Systems, Inc.
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.
]
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.)

Circle Surround is backward compatible, such that surround playback
is possible from any stereo or passive matrix-encoded material.
Five full-bandwidth, discrete channels of information can be extracted
from an enormous library of material not multi-channel encoded.
These sources include many of today’s DVDs and laser discs, as well
as most all video tape, VCD, Compact Disc, radio and television
broadcast material.

z DIGITAL INPUT (Dig.1 - 6) / OUTPUT
(coaxial, optical)
These are the digital audio inputs and outputs. There are 3 digital
inputs with coaxial jacks, 3 with optical jacks.
The inputs accept digital audio signals from a compact disc, LD, DVD,
or other digital source component.
For digital output, there is 1 coaxial output and 1 optical output.
The digital outputs can be connected to MD recorders, CD recorders,
DAT decks, or other similar components.
x Preamp Outputs (L, R, SL, SR, SBL,
SBR, C)
Jacks for L(front left),R(front right), C(Center), SL(surround left),
SR(surround right),SBL(surround back left)and SR(surround back
right).
Use these jacks for connection to some external power amplifiers.
c Subwoofer Output
Connect this jack to the line level input of a powered subwoofer. If an
external subwoofer amplifier is used, connect this jack to the
subwoofer amplifier input. If you are using two subwoofers, either
powered or with a 2 channel subwoofer amplifier, connect a “Y”
connector to the subwoofer output jack and run one cable from it to
each subwoofer amplifier.
v FM antenna terminal (75 ohms)
Connect an external FM antenna with a coaxial cable, or a cable
network FM source.
AM antenna and ground terminals
Connect the supplied AM loop antenna. Use the terminals marked
“AM” and “GND”. The supplied AM loop antenna will provide good
AM reception in most areas. Position the loop antenna until you hear
the best
b Multiroom Outputs (Audio L&R, Video)
These are the audio and video output jacks for the remote zone (Multi
Room).
Connect these jacks to the optional audio power amplifiers or video
display devices to view and listen to the source selected by the
mulitroom system in a remote room.
n MONITOR OUT
There are 2 monitor outputs and each one includes both composite
video and S-video configurations. When connecting two video
monitors or televisions, be aware that the OSD interface can be used
with both MONITOR OUT.
m 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
SR8200. The SR8200 has two component video input connectors to
obtain the color information (Y, CB, CR) directly from the recorded DVD
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.
Notes:
• This component video output is available to OSD menu system.
, Speaker outputs terminals (for Main
room)
Six terminals are provided for the front left, front right, front center,
surround left, surround right and surround back (LEFT) speakers.
9
. Speaker outputs terminals (for Multi
ENGLISH
room)
Two terminals are provided for the left and right speakers for
Multiroom(2nd zone)
Notes:
• Connect the these jacks to the matching + or – terminals on your
speakers. When making speaker connections, always make
certain to maintain correct polarity by connecting the red (+)
terminals on the SR8200 to the red terminals on the speaker and
the black (–) terminals on the SR8200 to the black terminals on
the speakers.
⁄0 AC INLET
Plug the supplied power cord into this AC INLET and then into the
power outlet on the wall.
⁄7 MULTI ROOM REMOTE IN/OUT
terminals
IN: Connect to multi-room remote control device, available from
your Marantz dealer.
OUT: Connect to the Marantz component equipped with remote
control (RC-5) terminals in another room (Second zone).
⁄8 DC TRIGGER output terminals
Connect a device that needs to be triggered by DC under certain
conditions (screen, power strip, etc…)
Use the system OSD setup menu to determine the conditions by which
these jacks will be active.
Note:
• This output voltage is for (status) control only, It is not
sufficient for drive capability.
⁄1 AC OUTLETS
Connect the AC power cables of components such as a DVD and CD
player to these outlets. SWITCHED and UNSWITCHED outlets are
provided.
The one marked SWITCHED provides power only when the SR8200
is turned on and is useful for components which you use every time
you play your system.
The one marked UNSWITCHED is always live as long as the SR8200
is plugged into a live outlet.
A component connected here may be left on permanently, or may be
switched off with its own power switch.
Caution:
• In order to avoid potential turn-off thumps, anything plugged in
here should be powered up before the SR8200 is turned on.
⁄2 VIDEO IN/OUT (TV, DVD, DSS, VCR1,
VCR2)
These are the video inputs and outputs. There are 5 video inputs and
2 video outputs and each one includes both composite video and Svideo configurations. Connect VCRs, DVD players, and other video
components to the video inputs.
S-video sources can be viewed through the S-video outputs, and
composite sources can only be viewed through the composite output.
The 2 video output channels can be used to be connected to video
tape recorders for making recordings.
⁄3 AUDIO IN/OUT (CD, TAPE, CD-R, TV,
DVD, DSS, VCR1, VCR2)
These are the analog audio inputs and outputs. There are 9 audio
inputs (5 of which are linked to video inputs) and 4 audio outputs (2 of
which are linked to video outputs). The audio jacks are nominally
labeled for cassette tape decks, compact disc players,DVD players
and etc.... The audio inputs and outputs require RCA-type connectors.
⁄9 External IR transmitter terminal
If the SR8200 is located inside a rack or cabinet that will not allow
infrared beams to transmit to 2way remote commander, you will need
to connect a IR transmitter to this output to be able to use the 2way
remote controller.
Then install the remote transmitter in an unblocked location where you
can easily receive IR signal.
Note:
• An optional remote transmitter kit is required.
⁄4 7.1 CHANNEL INPUT
By connecting a DVD Audio player, SACD player, or other component
that has a multi channel port, you can playback the audio with 5.1
channel or 7.1 channel output.
⁄5 RS232C
The RS232C port is to be used in conjunction with an external
controller to control the operation of the SR8200 by using an external
device.
The RS232C port may also be used in the future to update the
operating software of the SR8200 so that it will be able to support new
digital audio formats and the like as they are introduced.
⁄6 REMOTE CONT. IN/OUT terminals
Connect to a Marantz component equipped with remote control (RC-
5) terminals.
