Description

Precision-Engineered Acoustic Performance
The Marantz AV 30 AV Preamplifier is a reference-grade 11.4-channel balanced preamplifier designed for uncompromising home theater performance. Engineered with Marantz’s renowned HDAM-SA2 discrete circuitry, the AV 30 ensures ultra-low distortion and wide dynamic range, delivering sound that is as detailed as it is immersive. Equipped with advanced 32-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs) and dedicated jitter reduction, it preserves the integrity of every audio signal, ensuring an exceptionally pure listening experience.

Next-Generation Surround Sound Processing
Supporting the latest surround audio technologies, including Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X® Pro, AURO-3D®, and IMAX Enhanced formats, the AV 30 creates a remarkably lifelike, three-dimensional soundstage. Its 11.4-channel output configuration accommodates a variety of speaker layouts, including 7.4.4, to reproduce cinematic realism with precision. Advanced Analog Devices 32-bit processing ensures low noise and high resolution across all channels for a truly transportive sound experience.

Advanced Room Optimization Technologies
To ensure optimized performance in any environment, the Marantz AV 30 features both Audyssey MultEQ XT32 and optional Dirac Live Room Correction technologies. These advanced calibration systems analyze the acoustic characteristics of the listening space, fine-tuning the frequency and phase response of each channel. Optional Dirac Bass Control and Dirac Active Room Treatment extend control over low-frequency behavior, delivering tight, balanced, and natural sound reproduction across all seating positions.

Uncompromising Connectivity and 8K Capability
Engineered for maximum flexibility, the AV 30 includes seven HDMI inputs and three HDMI outputs—all fully 8K-enabled at 60Hz or 4K at 120Hz. This ensures compatibility with the latest video sources such as gaming consoles, UHD Blu-ray players, and media streamers. Additional digital, analog, and phono inputs offer broad system integration possibilities. Balanced XLR and RCA outputs—across all channels including four independent subwoofer outputs—provide superior signal distribution to external power amplifiers. Multi-zone support allows simultaneous playback across separate areas for whole-home audio expansion.

Sound Master Tuned for Exceptional Fidelity
Each Marantz component, including the AV 30, is meticulously curated by the Marantz Sound Master to achieve the brand’s signature warm, rich, and detailed tonal balance. Every component is individually selected and tested for sonic purity, ensuring that the AV 30 reproduces music and film soundtracks with remarkable realism and emotional engagement.
