Matching power with audio resolution, the Marantz AMP 20 adds sonic drama to any home cinema system.
The perfect partner for the AV 20 For optimal performance, the Marantz AMP 20 is designed to partner the AV 20. The AV 20 processor was developed together with the AMP 20, meaning that they have a harmonious sonic signature when used together. They also create a substantial visual impact, especially with distinguishing highlights including, front panel illumination, ‘porthole’ displays and distinctive metal finishes. Although designed with the AV 20, the AMP 20’s supreme connectivity means that it can also be used with a wide range of other AV processors, or even as a premium quality, multiroom amplifier.
12-channel power amp for immersive surround sound With an impressive 12 channels of sound, you can configure the AMP 20 to suit the most high-end home cinema speaker systems. Pair with the AV 20, 13.4-channel processor and decode Dolby Atmos and DTS:X signals, right up to Dolby Atmos 7.4.4 – enough for hugely immersive cinema sound. You can also opt for fewer ceiling speakers and more surrounds, or bi-amp the front speakers – the choices are numerous.
Ground-shaking power At 200 watts per channel, this reference home cinema amp has power to spare. With this level of clout, you don’t need to worry about using inefficient speakers or whether or not the amp has sufficient dynamic headroom to do justice to intense action movies – it does. With its illuminated dB level metre, you can even see the power in action.
Cinematic sound Along with its mighty power, the AMP 20 has the finesse to match. With the final sound quality spec meticulously tuned by Marantz’s Sound Master, you can be assured of ultimate resolution and musicality. Using their unique HDAM-SA2 (Hyper Dynamic Amplifier Modules), the sound quality is lifelike and dynamic with a rich, spacious tone that wraps around you.
Copper-bottomed perfection For the highest standards of noise resistance and isolation, the AMP 20 uses a copper-plated chassis. Found only in the top-level Marantz ranges, this expensive detail proves their dedication to sonic perfection.
Comprehensive connectivity Around the back of this substantial power amp, you’ll find the space full of handy connection sockets. For studio-grade connectivity, wire up to your AV processor via the balanced XLR sockets. These not only give a secure ‘locked in’ connection but also reduce potential interference, especially over longer cable runs. Regular RCA phonos are also available, giving this power amp near-universal compatibility. For home automation integration, there’s a handy range of additional sockets, including RS-232C, DC control in/out and IR input. If the power amp is going to be tucked out of sight, the auto-standby function is a handy feature.
Unique design Featuring a textured facia, illuminated front panel and ‘porthole’ dB metre, the Marantz Amp 20 catches the eye unlike almost any other power amplifier. Rather than the usual, brick-like design, the Amp 20 shows stylish flair that you’ll be happy to have on display.
Experience the full impact of home cinema sound, with the Marantz AMP 20.
