Marantz PM8006 

With a fully discrete current feedback design, the PM8006 integrated amplifier is perfect for audiophiles wanting both excellent music quality and flexible operation. It offers a powerful 2x 70W into 8 ohm, while the symmetrical circuits ensure optimal imaging. To ensure the most involving musical experience, the amplifier uses a new Marantz-designed electric volume control and brand-new Marantz Musical Phono EQ phono preamp stage, designed to get the purest signal from beloved vinyls by minimized noise levels. To further remove interference, new isolating feet are used to support the amplifier, combining high density and a damping fibre.

The PM8006 also includes preamp outputs along with a power amp direct input, which lets you use the unit as a standalone power amplifier for integration into a multi-channel home theater system. For precise sound tailoring, our triple tone control system provides separate controls for the bass, midrange and treble. The elegant remote control features an ergonomic layout for easy operation, and can control accompanying source players.

PM8006集成放大器采用完全分离的电流反馈设计，非常适合既想要极佳音乐品质又兼顾操作灵活性的音响发烧友。可为8欧姆负载提供强大的2x 70W功率，对称电路则确保声像效果最佳。为了保证音乐体验更加逼真，放大器采用Marantz新设计的电子音量控制和全新的Marantz Musical Phono EQ唱头前置放大器级，通过最大限度降低噪音水平从珍贵的黑胶唱片获取最纯净信号。为了进一步消除干扰，使用新隔离支脚支撑放大器，这些支脚采用高密度和阻尼纤维复合材料。

PM8006还包括前置放大器输出以及功放直接输入端口，后者让您可将该设备作为独立功放与多声道家庭影院系统整合。为了精准进行声音调试，我们的三音调控制系统提供独立的低、中和高音控制钮。典雅的遥控器采用符合人体工程学的布局，方便操作，可以控制配套的音源播放器。

Current Feedback

Current Feedback amplification is a well-known, Marantz-original circuit technology, suiting perfectly with the requirements of Super Audio hi-res music for wide-bandwidth, high-speed reproduction. The impedance at the Current Feedback point is limited resulting in a very low phase shift, meaning Marantz Current Feedback amplifiers reduce the need for phase compensation via Negative FeedBack (NFB) to a minimum. This simplified the signal path, resulting in high through-rate, excellent transient response and superb sonic transparency across the full bandwidth. Unlike conventional Voltage Feedback topology, Current Feedback also makes the power amplifier insensitive to difficult loudspeaker loads.

电流反馈

电流反馈放大是著名的Marantz原创电路技术，完美适合超级音频（Super Audio）高分辨率音乐进行宽带宽高速再现的需求。对电流反馈点的阻抗进行限制，从而使相位漂移非常低，表明Marantz电流反馈放大器可通过负反馈（NFB）将相位补偿的必要性减至最低限度。这样一来，信号路径得到简化，使通过率上升、瞬态响应增强，并优化了整个带宽范围的声音透明度。与传统的电压反馈拓扑不同，电流反馈还使功率放大器对不利的扬声器负载不敏感。

Marantz HDAM Technology

Marantz developed its own discrete circuit boards, called Hyper-Dynamic Amplifier Modules, or HDAMs, to replace the chip based amps used elsewhere. Using discrete surface mount components with short mirror-image left and right signal paths, HDAMs outperform the regular integrated Op-amps dramatically in Slew Rate and noise level, resulting in a much more dynamic, accurate and detailed sound. Over the years Marantz has developed different HDAMs to fit the particular requirements of players and amplifiers: the PM8006 uses the high-grade SA3 version.

Marantz HDAM技术

Marantz开发了自己的分离电路板，称为超级动态放大器模块（HDAM），用于取代其他地方所用的芯片放大器。HDAM采用分离的表面安装元件和短镜像L/R信号路径，在转换速率和降噪水平方面，其性能远超常规的集成运放，从而使得声音更具动感、更准确、更细腻。多年来，为满足播放器和放大器的具体需求，Marantz开发了不同的HDAM：PM8006使用的是SA3高级版本。

Marantz Musical Phono EQ

For a long time, Marantz integrated amplifiers have featured high-quality phono stages, but now the company takes its commitment to vinyl to new levels with the Marantz Musical Phono EQ stage, launched in the PM8006 amplifier. This unique technology, simplifying the signal path in the phono stage for optimal sound quality, underlines the company’s commitment to the very best playback of all music sources, be they digital or analogue. Marantz Musical Phono EQ uses two-stage amplification, allowing less gain per stage, for lower distortion. Of course, being a Marantz design it uses the company’s HDAMs, but here they’re combined with JFETs (junction gate field-effect transistors) in the input stage, giving a high input impedance. This allows the deletion of the AC coupling capacitors previously used providing a simpler signal path for the tiny output from a phono cartridge, improving signal purity.

Marantz has also rethought the re-equalization process within the phono stage, a fundamental part of vinyl replay required to compensate for the limitations of the format. In the Marantz Musical Phono EQ stage this re-equalization is split into passive and active sections, for more accurate equalisation: the RIAA correction is carried out within an HDAM, while amplification is in the hands of a high-quality op-amp, running in Class A mode for minimal distortion, and delivering a clean and open sound. With Marantz Musical Phono EQ there’s no need to consider upgrading the PM8006 with offboard phono stage: as part of Marantz’s commitment to optimising playback of all format, be they digital or analog, the amplifier already has premium-class phono capability built-in.

Marantz音乐唱头均衡器

长久以来，Marantz集成放大器一直配备高质量唱头级，但现在公司推出的PM8006放大器配备Marantz音乐唱头均衡器前级，将其对黑胶唱片的投入提升到新的水准。这项独特的技术简化唱头前级的信号路径，使音质更佳，兑现了该公司要让所有音乐源（无论是数字的还是模拟的）获得最佳播放效果的承诺。Marantz音乐唱头均衡器使用两级放大，降低每一级的增益，使失真更低。当然，作为Marantz的设计，它使用了该公司的HDAM，但这里它们在输入级与JFET（结型场效应管）合并，提高了输入阻抗。这样便废除了先前使用的AC耦合电容器，使唱机唱头微弱输出信号的路径更简单，从而提高信号纯度。

Marantz还重新设计了唱头前级里面的再均衡过程，这是黑胶播放为弥补格式限制所必需的重要部分。为获得更准确的均衡效果，在Marantz音乐唱头均衡器前级中，这一再均衡过程分为无源和有源两个部分：RIAA校正在HDAM内进行，而放大由运行A类模式的高品质运放执行，以最大程度减少失真并提供纯净开放的声音。使用Marantz的音乐唱头均衡器之后，无需再考虑使用外部唱头前级升级PM8006：作为Marantz要优化所有格式（数字或模拟）的播放效果这一承诺的一部分，该放大器已经内置了高级唱头功能。

Toroidal Transformer

A Toroidal transformer has several advantages over a normal EI core transformer. It is very efficient and therefore delivers more power compared to the same size of an EI core transformer. In addition, due to its shape, the electromagnetic radiation and the mechanical vibration are extremely low all ending in a better sound quality.

环形变压器

环形变压器相比普通EI芯变压器具有更多优势。其效率很高，因此与相同尺寸的EI芯变压器相比能提供更多功率。此外，由于其形状原因，电磁辐射和机械振动都极低，从而获得更佳音质。

Often under-estimated: a high-quality volume control

A newly developed electric volume control using the latest volume control IC realizes better channel separation, dynamic range and distortion-reduction, while retaining the operational feel of an analogue volume control device. To ensure the most involving musical experience, the amplifier uses a new Marantz-designed electric volume control for high linearity and best-in-class channel separation.

经常被低估：高品质音量控制

新近开发的电子音量控制技术采用最新的音量控制IC，使声道隔离效果、动态范围更佳，并减少失真，同时保留模拟音量控制装置的操作感。为了保证音乐体验更加逼真，放大器采用Marantz新设计的电子音量控制，获得更高线性度和业界一流的声道隔离度。

High quality, original Marantz SPKT-1+ Speaker Terminals

The terminals are made of massive brass with a thick silver plating for the best possible contact with the speaker cables, and the main speaker terminals are mounted lower, and thus closer to the main circuit board, to reduce the signal path. That’s in keeping with the entire design of the amplifier, which uses the shortest possible signal paths and High Instantaneous Current topology for better speed and dynamics.

Marantz高品质独创SPKT-1+扬声器端子

端子用黄铜制作，镀厚层银，便于与扬声器电缆充分接触。主扬声器端子位置较低，更靠近主电路板，从而缩短信号路径。这与放大器的总体设计一致，放大器使用最短的信号路径和高瞬时电流拓扑，以提高速度并增强动感。

Silver 200

The Silver 200’s sleek appearance makes it a truly compact and attractive floorstander, blending audiophile performance with lifestyle proportions.

A pair of Monitor Audio’s unique 5¼-inch C-CAM RST bass drivers share the duties of delivering bass and mid/bass. Configured as a two-and-a-half way system both electrically and acoustically, you will be amazed at the magical sound quality that this slimline can produce in your home.

The two bass drivers operate in separate acoustic chambers within the enclosure to provide differential tuning and are divided optimally with crossovers to ensure both bass drivers contribute to the lower frequencies. This ensures only the mid-range crosses over with the tweeter and results in a consistent and precise image, on and off axis. This configuration delivers performance approaching a three-way design whilst ensuring higher efficiency and extended low frequency, yet in a smaller cabinet.

The drive units are constructed with massive magnetic systems capable of deep bass extension. The low-frequency response has been engineered to provide smooth roll-off without exhibiting any of the usual ‘overhang’, meaning that the Silver 200 can be sited close to a wall and provide the ideal blend of domesticity and blazing performance. Diminutive for a floorstander, this model is no slouch. The Silver 200 is a serious audiophile speaker with amazing drive and incredible musicality. The engineering challenge was to create a smaller box with bigger sound; with the Silver 200, Monitor Audio achieves that goal so that you can enjoy your music and films with convincing realism.
