Contents Features Connections Playback High quality sound • All-discrete current-feedback amplifier Marantz proprietary current-feedback circuit, using discrete components, is adopted in the pre-amplifier and power amplifier. It is a high-speed amplifier using the latest technology developed for the higher-grade amplifiers. • HDAM®SA3 Module This unit includes the HDAM®SA3 which had been developed for highend models. The HDAM®SA3 is incorporated into many components, such as the current feedback phono equalizer. • Improved momentary current supply ability It is generally known that the sound quality is not necessarily the same even if amplifiers have the same specifiations. Marantz considers the cause to be the power to drive speakers. The power amplifier of this unit has the ability to momentarily supply current of 45 A or more to drive speakers strongly. Settings Tips Appendix • Short-power-line layout For strong momentary current supply, a short power-line layout unifies the power circuit and output stage of the power amplifier section. This layout allows connecting the large-current lines via the shortest route while to arranging the left and right channels symmetrically. • CD direct buffer amplifier An input buffer amplifier exclusive for CD is mounted near the CD input jacks. This is a high-speed buffer amplifier made with discrete components, which avoids interference between right and left channels and can send the signals to the pre-amplifier with very high fidelity. • All-Discrete current-feedback phono equalizer As a phono equalizer amplifier for MM cartridges, a constant currentfeedback PHONO equalizer of quality equal to that of the higher-grade model is used.
