FOREWORD
This section must be read before any connection is made to the
mains supply.
WARNINGS
Do not expose the equipment to rain or moisture.
Do not remove the cover from the equipment.
Do not push anything inside the equipment through the
ventilation holes.
Do not handle the mains lead with wet hands.
EQUIPMENT MAINS WORKING SETTING
Your Marantz product has been prepared to comply with the
household power and safety requirements that exist in your area.
PS-17 can be powered by 230 V AC only.
IMPORTANT: (For UK version)
This apparatus is fitted with an approved moulded 13 Amp plug.
To change a fuse in this type of plug proceed as follows:
1. Remove fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fix new fuse which should be a BS1362 13A, A.S.T.A. or BSI
approved type.
3. Refit the fuse cover.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut
off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place.
If the mains plug contains a fuse, this should have a value of 13A. If a
plug without a fuse is used, the fuse at the distribution board should
not be greater than 5A.
Note:
The severed plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock
hazard should it be inserted into a 13A socket elsewhere.
How to connect a plug
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the follow-
ing code:
BLUE—“NEUTRAL” (“N”)
BROWN—“LIVE” (“L”)
1. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter “N” or coloured BLACK.
2. The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter “L” or coloured RED.
3. Do not connect either wires to the earth terminal in the plug which is
marked by the letter “E” or by the safety earth symbol or coloured
green or green-and-yellow.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is
clamped over the sheath of the lead — not simply over the two wires.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Marantz PS-17 DTS/Dolby Digital
Surround amplifier.
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 PS-17.
As there are a number of connection and configurations 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 DVD’s,
LD’s, and CD’s.
Dolby Digital lets you enjoy Digital TV, Digital Satellite as well as DVD
and LD software in digital surround, which is the next step above
Dolby Pro Logic.
In comparison with Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital can provide
separate left and right surround channels, for more precise
localization of sounds and a more convincing, realistic ambience.
And, with Dolby Digital, all five main channels can be full range and a
subwoofer can be added to each channel ,if desired. By providing up
to 5.1channels of digital audio independently, Dolby Digital lets you
enjoy better sound quality and more powerful presence than
conventional Dolby Surround.

POSITIONING AND CONNECT-
ING THE SPEAKERS
The ideal number of channels in a system for reproducing surround
sound with this unit is 8, namely, the front left and front right, center,
left surround and right surround, back left and back right surround,
and subwoofer.
The number of speakers minimally required in a system for surround
sound reproduction is 4, namely, the front left and right speakers and
the left and right surround speakers. However, 6.1-channel surround
sound cannot be reproduced with this kind of setup.
With this unit, the system is set to match the number and positions of
the speakers and the output characteristics of their bass range.
POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS
The speakers are placed in different positions depending on the size
of the room and other factors present. The basic layout of the
speakers and some layout tips are given below.
Layout tips
Front left and right speakers
It is recommended that these speakers be positioned at an angle of
45 to 60 toward the rear as seen from the listening position.
Center speaker
This is placed with its front aligned with the front left and right
speakers or slightly offset to the rear.
Left and right surround speakers
These are placed somewhere between the sides of the listening
position and the front. They are not placed behind the listening
position.
Back left and right surround speakers
These are positioned behind the listening position. Place them at the
angles shown in the figure.
Subwoofer
Use of a subwoofer is recommended in order to maximize the bass
effect. The subwoofer handles only the bass range so it can be
placed anywhere in the room.
70cm
〜1m
HEIGHT
Front speakers (left, right and center)
The midrange and high-range speaker units of the three front
speakers should be arranged at the same height as far as this is
possible.
This means placing the center speaker either directly on top of the TV
set or directly underneath it.
A layout like this necessitates the use of the kind of center speaker
which is protected from magnetic fields.
Surround speakers
These should be positioned about 70 cm to a meter above the listener
as space allows. This will ensure that the sound field will not be
conspicuously localized but perceived as pervading the whole room.

CONNECTION OF SPEAKER SYSTEMS
nThe speakers in the speaker system should have an impedance
between 4 and 16 ohms. If speakers with an impedance of less
than 4 ohms are connected, the protection circuit may be
activated during play.
nThe output terminals have positive ( : Red) and negative ( :
white) polarity, and each speakers also has the same polarity (
and ). When connecting the speaker, be sure to connect the
terminals with the same polarity ( with ,with ).
CAUTION:
When connecting two pairs of speaker systems simultaneously,
the impedance of each speaker system should be no less than 8
ohm .
Connecting a speaker system with a lower impedance than 8
ohm may activate the protection circuitry and make normal
stereo reproduction impossible.
