Symptom: 1. Noise is heard in the audio when the product is connected via HDMI to a player capable of outputting DSD audio and is playing back the DSD audio of a SACD with the Surround set to CS II. 2. No sound comes out if the surround mode is selected to SOURCE DIRECT or PURE DIRECT while the product is playing back a CD, connected via DIGITAL to a player capable of converting the CD sampling output frequency to 88.2 KHz. 3. Vertical fringes appear on the left side of the TV screen when the audio is converted from the Analog Component Signal (480p/576p, 720p, 1080p) to HDMI. Solution: 1. The input mode has been set to always receive DSD (Channel 2) input to DSP in STEREO Input. 2. The device common master clock for processing digital audio signals has been reset to 88.2KHz/96KHz. 3. The digital video sync output has been changed from the embedded type to the separate type.

Life Amplified TM The SR8001 features THX Select2 certification and is also one of the few receivers to feature Audyssey’s unique auto calibration capability. This is a significant improvement over previous “room correction” strategies in that it improves the listening characteristics of your entire room rather than for just one or two seats. . It’s your assurance that, in addition to the power you’ll need to fill average-sized rooms with theater- quality sound (125 watts continuous from each of its seven amplifiers), other performance parameters like signal-to-noise and distortion are absolutely first class. Then there are the Marantz touches. A toroid-based power supply. Current feedback amplification. An anti-interference copper plated chassis that’s less than 16” deep so it will fit in more places easily. Adding to the audio flexibility is a 3rd Zone output (with an individually selectable source!) to make your SR8001 the center of a whole house distributed audio system. On the A/V side, the SR8001 features HDMI switching (version 1.2) for up to four sources and two display devices. And there’s format conversion to HDMI with Time Base Correction so even your older video sources will look their best. If you’re not quite ready for HDMI (or if your displays aren’t), the SR8001 offers two assignable component outputs, too. One infrared receiver input and two IR outputs add enormous control flexibility as do two DC “trigger” outputs for custom installation applications. And, of course, the peace of mind that our three year-warranty gives you. • THX Select 2 certification • 125 watts (into 8 ohms) x 7 ch.
