For optimum reproduction of Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro
Logic IIx and Circle Surround reproduction, the SR5600
provides high current, wide band audio amplification, capable
of generating 90 watts of discrete power into all 7 channels.
With Current Feedback technology and a robust power
transformer, the SR5600 has ample capabilities to drive low
impedance loudspeakers. Marantz has the 70% power
guarantee, meaning that a minimum of 70% of the indicated
stereo power will be available when 5 channels are
simultaneously used. Further more an extensive array of digital
and analogue audio and video connections secure
accommodation of a wide variety of multiple program sources.
In their drive for perfection our engineers have succeeded in
further improving the sound quality and decoding facilities of
the SR5600. P ow er y o ur h om e th eatr e
The SR5600 incorporates the most advanced 32-bit Digital Signal
Processing circuitry decoding the latest generation of digital
surround sound such as Dolby Digital EX, DTS ES, DTS Neo:6,
Circle Surround II, and Dolby Pro-Logic IIx. L ate st su rro und te ch nolo gie s

The DTS-ES surround system offering a superb sound quality
and a range of formats. The Discrete 7.1 offers the ultimate
quality of surround field creation, while the Matrix 7.1 provides
compatibility for the existing DTS 5.1 software. And the Neo:6 is
to create 7.1 surround stage from any two channel source. DTS
96/24 allows for 5.1 channel sound track encoding at a rate of
96kHz/24 bits on DVD-Video titles.

Pro Logic IIx is the first and only technology to process any
native stereo or 5.1 signal into a 6.1- or 7.1- channel output. A
product of Dolby's expertise in surround sound and matrix
decoding technologies, Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a complete
surround sound solution that maximizes the entertainment
experience from stereo as well as 5.1-channel encoded sources.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx technology features Movie and Music
modes that function with 5.1 as well as stereo sources, including
24-bit/192kHz and 24-bit/96kHz sources. E ig h t c h an nel a

or play video games with the dramatic surround effects of a 5.1-
channel soundtrack through any set of headphones. D

The Current Feedback amplifier technology fits perfectly with
the high requirements set for this Super Audio software
providing wide-bandwidth, high-speed reproduction. The
impedance at the Current Feedback point is limited resulting in
a very low phase shift. The SR5600 therefore can keep the phase
compensation via Negative FeedBack (NFB) to a minimum,
resulting in high through-rate, excellent transient response and
superb sonic transparency for the full bandwidth up to 100kHz.
The SR5600 features a fully discrete 7 channel amplifier section
capable of delivering 90 watts of high-current amplification, for
continuously clean and stable power into each of the 7 channels.
Current Feedback amplification is a well known Marantz
original circuit technology accomplishments, from the hi-fi
amplifier field. C urre n t Feed back p ow er am plif ic a tio n
SR5600 is equipped with a high quality video conversion. It can
up convert the Composite signal to S-Video/Component and S-
Video to Component; as well as down conversion from S-Video
to composite (the component signal is not down converted).
This feature allows you to connect the best possible video cable
between the SR5600 and the display and of course you only
need one. All the video switching for your several sources will
be done by the receiver. V id eo co nvers io n
Music and sound track reproduction is enhanced through a
highly efficient source direct switch, which bypasses the total
A/V section in audio mode. In direct mode, interference and
disturbance by radiated electrical or magnetic fields are
minimized, ensuring the shortest signal path for the highest
degree of clarity and detail. For digital signal highly accurate
192kHz/24-bit audio D/A converters take the job, resulting in a
far more faithful sound quality. It encompasses the Marantz
heritage with refinements such as a metal alloy faceplate, an
efficient video off mode and high grade components. E xp eri

The SR5600 is equipped with a 2 Component input terminals
to connect your video source through the centre of your home
entertainment. It provides one touch switching of video and
audio source with a high quality reproduction and feeds
useful information onto the screen via the user-friendly OSD.
It features heavy duty speaker binding posts and an
extensive array of both analog and digital in- and outputs.
The SR5600 presents in addition an extensive feature list,
such as auto preset tuning (program up to 50 stations),
manual station naming, front panel cursor control, delay
function and sleep-timer. Other versatile, future ready,
custom install friendly features include a multi-channel (7.1)
direct input and pre-amp outputs, RS232c interface for
software updates and system control, and an intuitive on-
screen display for setup and control. Fu nctio nal co nven ie n ce
With the Marantz AV system placed in the main room of the
house, a second loudspeaker set can be placed in a separate
room. In this room an audio source can be selected
independently from the main room at a different sound level
and with full remote control functionality. The surround back
speakers of the SR5600 are assignable for the amplification in
the second room. This is only possible if in the main room a
5.1 system is set up. With the SR5600, Marantz allows you to
have AV enjoyment throughout the house from a single
system setup. Simply everywhere-¦ M ult ir o om w it h m ult i- s o urc e
The digital processing and scaling of video displays can
create a slight delay in the video signal. This delay makes
audio tracks appear out of synch. Using sound delay you can
slow the sound presentation to match the presentation of the
video. The Sound Delay on the SR5600 adjusts in increments
of 10ms steps from 0-“200ms. M atc h in g a u dio a n d v id eo - L ip S y n c
The SR5600 AV receivers provides a choice of 5 crossover
frequencies. This lets you 'fine tune' the speaker system by
selecting the optimum frequency to ensure a match of the
performance characteristics of the subwoofer to the main
speaker system A dju sta b l

To control entire system with one remote handset, Marantz
has designed the D-Bus system. The unique Marantz D-Bus
connection allows convenient linkage to other Marantz
components Individual devices inform each other and remote
control commands are communicated via this bus line, while
the RS232c communication port allows full CI integration. The
SR5600 comes with an easy to use pre-coded remote control,
for full intuitive and extensive system control. I n M ara n tz sty le
Every electronic equipment product is built of single
electrical components that are made of different material and
substances. Marantz assure that the components used in our
products are free of any dangerous material or substance to
keep our environment clean. We have for example removed
hazardous substances like lead in the solder. E nvir o nm en ta l fr ie n dly
