• 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.

DTS 96/24 offers the following:

1. Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24

master.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx is fully compatible with Dolby

Surround Pro Logic technology and can optimally

decode the thousands of commercially available

Dolby Surround encoded video cassettes and

television programs with enhanced depth and

spatiality. It can also process any high-quality

stereo or Advanced Resolution 5.1-channel music

content into a seamless 6.1- or 7.1-channel

listening experience.

DESCRIPTION

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.

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 multichannel 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.

4. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full-

motion video, for music programs and motion

picture soundtracks on DVD-video.

Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories.

“Dolby”, “Pro Logic”, and the double-D symbol are

trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.

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.

Circle Surround II (CS-II) is a powerful and

versatile multichannel technology. CS-II is

designed to enable up to 6.1 multichannel 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.

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.

Dolby Digital identifies the use of Dolby Digital

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.

“DTS” and “DTS Digital Surround” are registered

trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

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.)

“DTS”, “DTS-ES Extended Surround” and “Neo:6”

are 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.

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.

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.

technology are incorporated under license from

SRS Labs, Inc.

DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1channel sound tracks to

be encoded at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVD-

Video titles.

Neo:6 offers several important improvements as

follow,

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.

• 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.

About Dolby Pro Logic IIx

Dolby Pro Logic IIx technology delivers a natural

and immersing 7.1-channel listening experience to

the home theater environment. A product of

Dolby's expertise in surround sound and matrix

decoding technologies, Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a

complete surround sound solution that maximizes

the entertainment experience from stereo as well

as 5.1-channel encoded sources.

• 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.

HDCD^®(High Definition Compatible Digital ^®) is a

patented process for delivering on Compact Disc

the full richness and details of the original

microphone feed.

HDCD encoded CDs sound better because they are

encoded with 20-bits of real musical information as

compared to 16-bits for all other CDs.

HDCD overcomes the limitation of the 16-bit CD

format by using a sophisticated system to encode

the additional four bits onto the CD while remaining

completely compatible with the CD format.

When listening to HDCD recordings, you hear

more dynamic range, a focused 3-D sound stage,

and extremely natural vocal and musical timbre.

With HDCD, you get the body, depth and emotion

of the original performance not a flat, digital

imitation.

The SR8400 incorporates the latest generation of

digital surround sound decoding technology such

as Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Digital, DTS ES

(Discrete 6.1 and Matrix 6.1), DTS Neo:6 (Cinema,

Music), Dolby Pro-Logic II (Movie and Music),

Dolby Pro-Logic IIx (Movie, Music and Game),

Circle Surround II (Cinema and Music) .

In addition, Marantz has focused on the future. By

utilizing pre-out jacks, 7.1 direct inputs and a RS-232C

communication port, the SR8400 is tomorrow's

technology, today!

The new generation of Marantz Receivers is stylish

and completely symmetrical. On the front panel of

the SR8400, buttons are kept to a minimum. Source

selectors and volume controls are intuitively placed.

The large left dial knob on the left can be used as multi

MEMO

The SR8400 features a fully discrete 7 channel

amplifier section capable of delivering 110 watts of

high-current amplification, for continuously clean

and stable power into each of the 7 channels. It

employs a massive EI power transformer in

combination with oversized filter capacitors.

Current feedback topology allows total operation

stability, while requiring minimal amounts of

negative feed-back, resulting in an excellent

transient frequency response and superb sonic

transparency. This design configuration is capable

of a clear and powerful reproduction of the most

demanding action movie soundtracks and full

range (multichannel) music discs. Through its

ability to generate very high output voltages, the

SR8400 can easily drive the most demanding

speakers with optimum results.

When listening to multichannel content such as

DVD movies over headphones, the listening

experience is fundamentally different than

listening to speakers. Since the headphone

speaker drivers are covering the pinna of the ear,

the listening experience differs greatly from

traditional speaker playback. TruSurround utilizes

patented headphone perspective curves to solve

this problem and provides a non-fatiguing,

immersive, home theater listening experience.

TruSurround Headphone also delivers exceptional

3D audio from mono and stereo material.

room or surround back)

REAR PANEL

The RS-232C port is to be used in conjunction with

an external controller to control the operation of

the SR8400 by using an external device.

The RS-232C port may also be used in the future

to update the operating software of the SR8400 so

that it will be able to support new digital audio

formats and the like as they are introduced.

Two terminals are provided for the front the left,

and right speakers for multi room (2^ndzone) or

surround back.

Caution:

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 life like colors and crisp

detail.

•

In order to avoid potential turn-off thumps, anything

plugged into these outlets should be powered up

Surround left and right speakers

When the SR8400 is used in surround operation,

the preferred location for surround speakers is on

the side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the

listening position.

The center of the speaker should face into the

room.

SURROUND

LEFT

RIGHT

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 left and right speakers,

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 and DTS is that

surround channels are discrete full range, while

they were frequency limited in earlier “Pro Logic’

type systems.

You can control other Marantz products through

this unit with the remote control by connecting the

REMOTE CONTROL terminals on each unit.

The signal transmitted from the remote control is

received by the remote sensor on this unit. Then

the signal is sent to the connected device through

this terminal. Therefore you need to aim the

remote signal only to the unit. Also, if a Marantz

power amplifier (some models excluded) is

connected to one of these terminals, the power

amplifier’s, power switch is synchronized with this

unit’s power switch.

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 SR8400

and today’s sound systems are able to produce.

Note : For speakers that you have selected “None”

the Speaker Configuration 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.

DTS-ES (Discrete 6.1, Matrix 6.1)

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

CAUTION

NOTE for HDCD signal

* HDCD is effective only at the time of digital

input.

DTS-ES adds the surround center channel audio to

the DTS 5.1-channel 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 DTS-ES 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 a

surround back speaker.

CSII-MONO)

NOTE for DTS signal

Circle Surround is designed to enable multichannel

surround sound playback of non-encoded and

multichannel 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.

* 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 SR8400

digitally. This is because the digital signal has

been processed (such as the output level,

sampling frequency, or frequency response)

and the SR8400 cannot recognize the signal as

DTS data.

* AUTO, Source- DIRECT, and STEREO modes

can be used when playing HDCD signals (such

as from CD discs that contain HDCD).

* You may not be able to play some HDCD source

signals from certain CD players if you connect

the player to the SR8400 digitally.

Depending on source material, you can select CSII

This is because the digital signal has been

processed (such as the output level, sampling

frequency, or frequency response) and the

SR8400 cannot recognize the signal as HDCD

data.

Cinema mode, CSII-Music mode or CSII-Mono

mode.

Note:

* Depending on the player used, DTS play may

produce a short noise. This is not a malfunction.

•

CS II mode is available for 2ch input signals which

are encoded in Dolby Digital or PCM format.

dts MODE

* 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 the A/D button.

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

• PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic

processing when the sampling frequency is 32

kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

This mode is for DTS encoded source materials

such as LASER DISC, CD, and DVD. Neo:6 is for

some 2 channel sources.

VIRTUAL

* 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 DTS-encoded signal will be recorded as

noise.

dts : This mode is enabled when playing source

materials encoded in dts multichannel.

Playing multichannel 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 be used when an analog

input has been selected.

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.

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.

STEREO

This mode bypasses all surround processing.

In 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

multichannels are converted to two channel

stereo. 96 kHz PCM source material can be played

back in stereo mode.

Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music

This mode decodes 2-channel signals into 6-

channel signals using high-accuracy digital matrix

technology.

* 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.

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.

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

SR8400 will be muted.

HDCD source material can be played in this 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 played back in

this mode.

Note:

•

Neo:6 mode is available to 2ch input signals which

are encoded in Dolby Digital or PCM format.

Certain DVD player models inhibit digital output.

For details, refer to the player’s operation manual.

• PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic

processing when the sampling frequency is 32

kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

Some DVD formatted discs feature 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.

HDCD source material can be played in this mode.

Notes:

MULTI CH. ST

• 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.

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.

• When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD

players, performing operations such as “Skip” or

“Stop” may momentarily interrupt the output.
