Marantz PM8004 PM8004 Spec Sheet

PM8004

Integrated Amplifier w/ Power Amp Direct

The new PM8004 Integrated Amplifier from Marantz combines the power and finesse that audiophiles demand with smart,

timely features designed for how we listen today. In response to requests from Home Theater aficionados, the PM8004 features

Power Amp Direct, a dedicated input that allows the PM8004 to integrate seamlessly with AV Receivers and, at the touch of a

button, take control of the main left and right loudspeakers for an old-school, pure analog listening experience; truly the best of

both worlds. iPod users will appreciate TriTone, a special 3-band tone circuit that is precision-tuned to help recover the loss of

precious detail that can result from digital compression.

The core of the PM8004 is signature Marantz with discrete circuit topologies dominating the design. A linear power supply

features a double-shielded Torroidal transformer with massive current capability. Critical supply lines to the output stages have

been shortened for improved current delivery and, as a result, response to musical peaks as been accelerated.

Hyper Dynamic

Amplifier Module (HDAM) preamp stages deliver maximum speed and transparency along with exceptional channel-to-channel

symmetry for exceptional image stability.

Polypropylene capacitors are utilized in critical circuit elements to preserve the deli-

cate balance of low, mid and high frequencies, their values selected through many hours of listening tests.

The PM8004 merges nearly 60 years of audio engineering expertise with the needs of present-day music lovers in a stylish, easy

to use component that fully embraces the Marantz traditions of superior sound quality and elegant design .
