PD4230V Plasma Monitor
The Flatscreen Experience
Marantz plasma monitors do two things extraordinarily well. First, they are superb examples of the finest flat screen tech-
nology you can enjoy in your home. Second and perhaps even more importantly, they symbolize – in the most concrete
way possible – Marantz’s continuing dedication to complement the legendary performance of our audio components with
the finest in video-based home entertainment.
Each widescreen monitor combines impressive design and benchmark technologies in a seamless blend to expand your
viewing pleasure. The Marantz reference-grade image begins with a proprietary high-contrast glass screen that benefits
from an advanced anti-reflective coating. Internal circuitry includes the best color filters and processing to virtually elim-
inate the jagged edges and color bleeding that often mar other plasma displays. There’s even special circuitry and high
quality phosphors to safeguard the screen from image retention artifacts. Every Marantz plasma display accommodates
an almost-astonishing array of video sources. The internal scaler transparently matches source and screen characteristics
for unsurpassed clarity, contrast, and color purity.
Ready to illuminate your home with the finest images from all of your favorite sources, the Marantz plasma monitors pro-
vide an ideal solution for any home entertainment and multimedia application. The slim and stylish bezels combine
sophisticated aesthetics and easy installation. Thanks to internal amplifiers, these plasma monitors are waiting for you to
add complementary speakers. Or you can connect the audio outputs of your favorite multi-media sources to a Marantz
surround receiver for sound that’s as authoritative as the images you’ll see.
In short, our plasma monitors simply extend more than a half-century of commitment and expertise into the video age.
We are proud to present them for your consideration.

PD4230V Plasma Monitor
Want to add the drama of a 42” plasma display to a smaller area of your home but don’t want to invest a lot of money? The PD4230V may be
your answer. This extended definition plasma panel is no slouch in the video department and you needn’t take our word for it, either. (A well
respected consumer publication gave it a “best in class” review.) Of course, we’re flattered. But the best review is the one you’ll give the
PD4230V in your own home. You’ll benefit from the same wide viewing angle, the same line doubler/scaler circuitry for optimum pictures from
NTSC broadcasts or videotapes, and the same connectivity advantages as our more expensive monitors. So sit back, start your DVD player and
settle in for a most rewarding experience. And when the movie’s over, you’ll notice the trim black gunmetal bezel that makes the PD4230V blend
so easily with your room furnishings. After all, a Marantz has to be dressed to appear anywhere.
