Comprehensive Audio-Visual Processing and Amplification

The Marantz AV 10 and AMP 20 bundle integrates a 15.4-channel AV preamplifier with a 12-channel power amplifier. This combination supports high-fidelity home theater environments and immersive surround sound configurations, leveraging the AV 10's processing for advanced formats such as Dolby Atmos, DTS:X Pro, Auro-3D, and IMAX Enhanced, paired with the AMP 20's 12 channels of amplification. The AV 10 processes up to 15.4 channels and provides 17.4 pre-outputs, allowing for future amplification upgrades or configurations utilizing up to 12 powered channels with this bundle.

Advanced Video Connectivity and Format Support

The AV 10 features seven HDMI inputs and three HDMI outputs, with full HDMI 2.1 compatibility for 8K/60Hz and 4K/120Hz video pass-through. HDR support includes HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG, enabling integration with a wide range of source devices and displays. All HDMI connections support HDCP 2.3, ensuring compatibility with current and forthcoming video content.

High-Power, Multi-Channel Amplification

The AMP 20 delivers 12 channels of refined Class D amplification, incorporating Marantz's exclusive HDAM-SA2 technology. It is rated at 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms (1 kHz, 0.05% THD, 2 channels driven) and 400 watts per channel into 4 ohms (1 kHz, 0.7% THD, 2 channels driven). This powerful and versatile amplifier permits flexible speaker configurations, such as 7.2.4 or 5.2.6 layouts. For more demanding front speakers, channels can be assigned to bi-amp them, or configured in BTL (Bridge-Tied Load) mode to deliver up to 400 watts per channel into 8 ohms. Each channel provides both balanced (XLR) and unbalanced (RCA) input options, selectable per channel, for optimal connectivity.

Streaming Integration and Multi-Room Audio

HEOS Built-in (on the AV 10) enables access to network streaming services and multi-room audio. The processor can be controlled via the HEOS app, integrating with other compatible speakers and components throughout the home. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Ethernet connectivity support wireless audio streaming and control.

Room Calibration and Acoustic Optimization

The AV 10 includes Audyssey MultEQ XT32 room correction for balancing the sound in challenging listening environments. It is also compatible with Dirac Live (optional license required), providing additional calibration tools for precise tuning.

Design and Build Quality

Both units embody Marantz's commitment to quality with robust chassis and a clean industrial design, often featuring copper-plated elements. The AV 10 displays key information on an OLED screen integrated within its classic Marantz porthole. The AMP 20 also features a distinctive Marantz porthole level meter for visual monitoring of output channels.
