MARANTZ CINEMA 30

The Marantz CINEMA 30 is an 11.4 channel AV amplifier and represents the top of the range of the Japanese brand's production for home cinema, an AV amplifier that offers maximum performance, quality and functionality, establishing itself as a new model of category reference. It is therefore aimed at all those more demanding home cinema enthusiasts, who want to create a superior audiovisual system, capable of faithfully reproducing the emotions and atmospheres of films or a live concert at home.

The CINEMA 30 was in fact designed to adapt to both the most intimate multimedia rooms and large dedicated home theaters, thanks to its flexibility and its ability to adapt to any type of environment and speaker, but at the same time it is also a ideal product for music lovers, as it features numerous analogue and digital inputs to be connected to various sources or stream from different music sources using HEOS Built-in technology, always guaranteeing extremely high sound quality in both cases.

Therefore, it is truly a complete product in terms of power, with 140 watts per channel which allows it to drive any speaker, for support for the main multi-channel audio formats such as Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, Auro-3D and IMAX Enhanced and for the seven HDMI inputs Ultra HD 8K, which allows you to connect all streaming and gaming devices.

Other features that make it one of the most advanced and complete products on the market include the 13.4-channel preamplification mode, which allows you to add an external power amplifier, the four independent subwoofer outputs, the seven Ultra HD 8K HDMI inputs that They support HDR10+, Dynamic HDR, Dolby Vision, HLG, etc.

As already mentioned, the integration of HEOS Built-in technology allows you to access a wide range of music streaming services, such as Spotify, Amazon Music HD, Tidal, and others, and to control the entire system via the HEOS app or with voice commands from Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant and Apple Siri, then we have the advanced Audyssey MultEQ XT32 room optimization system, which allows you to calibrate the speakers based on the acoustic characteristics of the room and finally support for Dirac Live Room Calibration and Dirac Live Bass Control (optional), which offers even more professional level calibration.

The Marantz CINEMA 30 does not allow compromises even on the construction quality, both from an aesthetic and technical point of view, in fact it uses premium and customized components, chosen by Marantz Sound Master technicians, in order to obtain the best sound, as the HDAM SA-2 preamplifier stage, which uses high-speed discrete circuitry, to ensure low distortion and greater bandwidth, the monolithic symmetrical amplifiers, which offer high power and optimal stability, and a transformer-based power supply toroidal, which provides a clean and constant current to all circuits.

Finally, for digital-analogue conversion, a dual-DAC is used, which uses the Analog Devices SHARC DSP chipset in dual configuration, coupled to the 32-bit ESS Saber DAC, with dedicated jitter reduction, to guarantee precise and detailed conversion of all digital signals.

On an aesthetic level, however, it is built according to the highest standards, basing the structure on a multi-layer chassis, which involves extensive use of copper, to reduce electromagnetic interference and guarantee greater stability, while the elegant and sober design takes the form of a panel clean-shaped front, which houses a porthole display that shows key information such as input and volume level, all then completely built in Japan, at the Marantz laboratories in Shirakawa.
