Marantz PM4400 OSE Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
Our specialty
Our OSE products are based on exciting audio devices within
the Marantz range and are upgraded to very high standards.
Therefore our OSE products exceed every expectation. Designed
with the greatest care for construction and component use, these
products have really become a Marantz trademark in terms of
value for money.
Symmetric circuit architecture
To achieve the best possible sonic performance, signal paths
need to be short, direct and mirror imaged. The construction of
our circuitry provides improved stereo image by ensuring
symmetry between right and left channel layout. The rigid
chassis and solid metal construction create an anti-resonant
environment.
Customised components
Every Marantz product is designed with a fine ear and eye for
details. The designers have to know the characteristics of every
component. On paper the component might look excellent but
the result may fall short
of the combined design
expectations. Therefore
Marantz collects vast
amounts of information
upon specifics
component
performance
capabilities. The result
guarantees Marantz
selects the appropriate
components for the specific design application. The sonic result
is then critically acclaimed by international reviewers. In other
cases it's simply not possible to use standard components that
meet the high Marantz standards. These components will then
be specially made for Marantz only in co-operation with the
Marantz engineers.
Two pairs of speaker outputs
In not all domestic environments the availability of one speaker
system is sufficient. Marantz amplifiers are equipped with the
possibility to connect 2 pairs of loudspeakers. The speaker
systems can be switched on and off by simply selecting the
speaker system on the front of the amplifier. Another option for
the second speaker connections is to provide a bi-wired
connection for your main loudspeakers. By doing so, this
provides each loudspeaker drive unit (bass driver and tweeter
unit) to have a separate and direct connection to the amplifier.
This reduces any influence the internal cross-over may exert
upon the music. In effect each drive unit has a separate and
independent filter network eliminating all cross over distortion.
D.Bus & system remote control
To optimise equipment in terms of ease of use, Marantz has
designed the D.Bus system. Individual devices inform each
other, in order to automatically tune to the customers demands.
At the same time received remote control commands are
communicated via this bus. This enables equipment without IR-
receiver, like a cassette deck or tuner, to be controlled via a
Marantz Remote control.
