The Marantz SR5004 Surround Receiver is anything but conventional. Of course, it’s highly flexible. And thoroughly up-to-date. So it can function
as a switching center for sophisticated home A/V systems, including yours. There’s video scaling, Bluetooth capability, high power, support for the
latest surround formats, outputs for 10 (yes, 10!) speakers, and easy system integration. When you combine that with Marantz’s vaunted sound
quality, you’ve got a receiver that redefines enjoyment. Were you expecting anything less? From Marantz? No way.
Basics count. Especially with Marantz. So the SR5004 Surround Sound Receiver begins where most so-called competitive products haven’t even
gotten to yet – sound quality. That’s because of our 55+ year heritage in delivering fine audio performance.
Consider the SR5004’s seven-channel “in-line” amplifier. In addition to its voltage feedback configuration, the SR5004’s amp benefits from selected
audiophile-grade components chosen only after carefully designed comparative listening tests. A substantial low-noise power supply based on an
oversized EI-core transformer and low-ESR capacitors assure instantaneous current delivery for undistorted peak reproduction. Marantz engineers
designed a totally separate audio circuit board to isolate sonics from the spurious radiation developed by video processors. Power is a substantial
90 watts/channel so you’ll enjoy dynamic reproduction of both music and soundtracks – all with the clarity that has long distinguished Marantz.
Getting that power to your speakers is easy with any type of cable as the SR5004 has screw terminals for nine speakers (plus a preamp output for
your subwoofer).
The SR5004 presents a plethora of ways to enjoy this clarity. Dolby Pro Logic IIz adds height information for real dimensionality and immersion.
Of course, internal Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD Master Audio circuitry accurately decode high definition soundtracks from Blu-ray discs, thanks to
an Aureus 250 MHz 32-bit floating point digital signal processor.
Audyssey Dynamic EQ brings loudness compensation curves into the digital era to insure that you’re listening to the same bass-to-treble tonal
balance intended by the original artists. And it does so regardless of your listening volume!
Another Audyssey technology, Dynamic Volume, lets you enjoy a variety of sources without the need to turn down the volume when a commercial
comes on – and turning it up again when your program resumes. And MultiEQ auto setup lets you automatically calibrate your listening
room/speaker combination so you and others can listen to the most accurate and convincing soundfield possible.
M-DAX, Marantz’s Dynamic Audio eXpander, restores the often-missing high frequencies to compressed audio sources by analyzing input signals
and applying proprietary Marantz algorithms to produce eminently enjoyable results.
For the “completely connected,” Marantz’s M-Xport feature offers Bluetooth capability. Simply add the optional RX101 Bluetooth adaptor to your
SR5004 and you’re ready to play the music you’ve collected on any Bluetooth-enabled portable device (your iPhone, iTouch, or PDA for example)
through your home theater system. Bluetooth’s real beauty is that you can do this wirelessly so you don’t need a separate device dock! And the
RX101 doubles as an IR (infrared) receiver so you can place all your components out of sight and still maintain full remote control.
On the video side, the SR5004 boasts full 1.3 HDMI connectivity with three inputs and one output. So you can connect your HDMI sources through
the SR5004 to a single high definition screen for full resolution viewing. Transcoding from analog to digital followed by video scaling to 1080p lets
you view your favorite analog video sources on that same screen for even more engaging viewing.
The Marantz SR5004 carries simplicity to high levels, too. The new color GUI screens make system setup easy to understand and even easier to
accomplish. The connections help, too. Instead of a mind-numbing array of little-used and even-less-understood jacks, you’ll find simplified choices
that include, for example, a front-panel S-Video input, one component video input, and a TOSlink digital connection.
There are more choices for radio, too. Rear panel connectors let you add your choice of Sirius or XM satellite tuners so you can enjoy the same
programming at home or on the road.
A detachable AC cord, RS232C and IR flasher inputs, and DC trigger outputs let you install the SR5004 almost anywhere. A full-function hand-held
controller with full BD command codes completes this remarkable combination of capabilities, conveniences, and commanding sonic presence.
That’s only as it should be. After all, the SR5004 Surround Receiver is a Marantz
