Stereo Integrated Amplifier: With a fully discrete current feedback design, the Marantz Model 40n integrated amplifier is perfect for audiophiles wanting excellent music quality. The Model 40n is conservatively rated at 70 watts per channel into 8Ω, and 100 watts per channel into 4Ω (20-20kHz @ 0.02%) for compatibility with the widest range of loudspeakers. Its been expertly crafted and tuned for the most musical sound possible.

• Current Feedback Amplification: Marantz proprietary current-feedback circuit, using discrete components, is adopted in the pre-amplifier and power amplifier. Current Feedback amplification is a well-known, Marantz-original circuit technology, suiting perfectly the requirements of high-resolution audio with wide-bandwidth and 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 signal path results 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.
• 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. The result is much more dynamic, accurate and detailed sound. The Model 40n leverages this unique Marantz innovation and use a high-grade HDAM-SA3 version to ensure whatever you're listening to is always the most musical.

Toroidal Transformer: The Marantz Model 40n integrated amplifier utilizes a large double-shielded 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.

24-Bit/192kHz Hi-Res DAC: The Marantz Model 40n integrated amplifier employs an ESS ES9016 DAC (digital-to-analog converter) that processes PCM and DSD signals up to 24-bit/192kHz and 5.6MHz, respectively.

• Digital Filter: The DAC is equipped with two digital filters which allow you to enjoy the desired playback sound quality. Filter 1 Offers a short impulse response for both pre-echo and post-echo, allowing a large amount of audio information to clearly reproduce deep stereo imaging and the relative position of the sound source. Filter 2 is known as asymmetrical impulse response, so the post echo is slightly longer than the pre-echo and the sound characteristics are more analog like.
• Lock Range: Narrowing down the Lock Range setting reduces jittering, providing clearer sound. However, if the Lock Range is set too narrow, it may cause intermittent sounds and noise during playback or when switching to a song with a different sampling frequency. If this occurs, broaden the Lock Range setting until the music you are listening to sounds normal. The Lock Range can be set to Narrow, Medium, or Wide (default).

Tone Controls: The Marantz Model 40n lets you adjust Bass and Treble to suit your sound, or bypass with Source Direct mode for the purest sound possible. You can manually adjust the integrated amplifier's Bass (50Hz) and Treble (15kHz) from -10dB to +10dB. To ensure the shortest signal path and upmost fidelity, the Model 40n features Marantz Source Direct function, which bypasses the tone and balance control circuitry for a straight path, delivering elevated sound purity.

HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel): The Marantz Model 40n is equipped with a HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) jack to connect the integrated amplifier to your TV's HDMI ARC input. The integrated amplifier's ARC jack only supports 2ch PCM audio (up to 24-bit/192kHz). It is not compatible with Dolby Digital, DTS, or other multichannel audio formats.

Optical & Coaxial Digital Inputs: The Model 40n is outfitted with one optical (toslink) digital input and one coaxial (RCA) digital input for connecting your existing digital audio source components. The optical and coaxial digital inputs support 2ch PCM audio files up to 24-bit/192kHz.

Line-Level Analog Inputs/Outputs: The Marantz Model 40n is equipped with three analog line-level stereo RCA inputs (CD / Line / Recorder), and one analog line-level stereo RCA output (Recorder) for connection of legacy audio source components.

Phono MM Input: The Model 40n is equipped with a Phono MM input with the Marantz Music Phono EQ built-in, so you can connect a turntable with a MM cartridge directly to the Model 40n integrated amplifier. The Marantz Music Phono EQ integrates a FET (field-effect transistors) in its Phono input stage. This provides high input impedance, eliminates the need for AC coupling capacitors, and simplifies the signal path, lowering distortion and noise vastly improving the signal purity overall.

Power Amp In (Home Theater Bypass): The Marantz Model 40n provides a Power Amp Input (also known as Home Theater Bypass) that consists of two fixed gain stereo RCA inputs. These stereo RCA inputs can be used for connecting an external preamp and using the Model 40n as a power amp. This is convenient when connecting an AV amp via its pre-outs so that the listening space with the same front speakers can be used as a home theater.

High Quality Binding Posts: The Model 40n integrated amplifier features a set of heavy-duty, dense brass binding post speaker output terminals with thick silver plating to provide the best possible contact and signal transfer with your speaker cables. The binding post terminals will accept bare wire (up to 10AWG, pin-connectors, and banana plus (single only). You can connect a pair of 8-ohm or 4-ohm loudspeakers.

Mono-RCA Sub Out: The Model 40n's mono-RCA sub output lets you add a powered subwoofer and dial in low-frequency crossover settings and level adjustment for precise integration with your main loudspeakers. The variable low pass crossover for the subwoofer output can be set to 40, 60, 80, 100, or 120Hz.

1/4" Headphone Jack: The Marantz Model 40n features a front-panel 1/4" headphone jack to plug in your set of headphones. The amplifier's speaker outputs and pre-outs will automatically mute when headphones are plugged in.
