When this switch is pressed in, the signals are transmitted by bypassing the BALANCE and tone (BASS and TREBLE) control circuitry so that they can be reproduce with a higher quality. (The BALANCE, BASS and TREBLE controls are defeated.)

!1 Warm-up meter

With any audio unit, the real sound quality cannot be obtained immediately after the power is turned on, and warming up is required to make the unit exhibit its full performance. As time passes after the power has been turned ON, the temperatures of different parts of the unit become constant and the electrolytic capacitors become active. This meter allows to check the warm-up condition of the unit. The meter needle starts to swing gradually in a little while after the power is turned ON and reaches about 2/3 of the meters full scale in about 30 minutes. Now the unit has almost been warmed up and can reproduce music with its original performance. The meter positions immediately after turning power on and at the end of warming up and the time taken for warming up are variable depending on the temperature, ventilation and other conditions of the listening room where the unit is located.

The PM7001 is an integrated amplifier developed on the design concepts of Marantzs PM-11S1 high-end model amplifier.
PM7001 KI Version Features
Compared to the PM7001, the PM7001 KI version contains the following upgrades.
CD Direct Buffer Amplifier
The PM7001 incorporates a specialized input buffer amplifier nearby the CD input jack. This buffer amplifier faithfully transmits the CD input jack signal by preventing interference from between the left and right channels, and from the effects of other circuits. A discrete configuration high-speed buffer amplifier which is built on the HDAM SA technology is incorporated into the buffer amplifier circuit.
Current Feedback PHONO Equalizer
A high-speed current feedback circuit similar to the pre-amplifier and main-amplifier circuits was adopted in the PHONO equalizer for the MM cartridge.
Newly Developed Toroidal Transformer
A newly developed Toroidal power transformer, which produces less vibration and magnetic leakage flux than previously, has been incorporated. The materials and manufacturing process of the ring-shaped core are strictly controlled to reduce vibration, while the short-ring attached to the perimeter of the transformer reduce magnetic leakage flux.

CD Direct Selector

The output of CD direct buffer amplifier has a specialized relay switch, which directly transmits the input signal by the shortest path to the pre-amplifier.
Improved Momentary-Current Supply Capability
It is known that sound quality differs between amplifiers that use the same spec, and Marantz believes that this is caused by differences in speaker drive capability. The PM7001 mainamplifier has the capability to momentarily pass 25 amperes or more of current, providing high-powered drive to the speakers.

High Performance Volume

The volume controller, which is often considered to be the core function of an amplifier, has been upgraded to an even more reliable type of controller.
Large Capacitance Block Capacitor
A large capacity 18000F block capacitor is incorporated into the main-amplifier power supply circuit.

Short Power Line Layout

In order to improve the momentary-current supply capability, a new layout which places priority on making the large current line connections as short as possible was adopted. In this layout the power supply circuit, main-amplifier output stage, and heatsink are unified, and the large current line is arranged to be as short as possible while still achieving symmetry on the left and right sides.
Film capacitors and electrolical capacitors etc.
The capacitors used in high end models like the PM-11S1 are incorporated into the PM7001 amplifier.

Copper-coated Chassis

Current Feedback Amplifier
Both pre-amplifier and main-amplifier incorporate a high-speed current feedback amplifier circuit, which faithfully amplify signals from the CD player. Moreover, the high-speed current feedback amplifier reproduces a natural sound field space.

WIRING SPEAKER CABLE

Be careful not to short circuit in wiring speaker cables. Peel off the corting of speaker cable as shown below.

Approx. 1 cm

Here following is explained BI-WIRING connection that improve sound quality. The speakers in this explanation have low and mid/high input jacks that support a BI-WIRING connection. To determine whether or not your speakers support a BI-WIRING connection, check in the instruction manual that came with your speakers or contact the manufacturer.
Cut the corting of cable.
Peel off the edge of cable.

Twist conductors.

BI-WIRING CONNECTION
A bi-wiring connection separately connects the low and mid/ high jacks of the speaker to the amplifier using separate speaker cables. Because separate cables are used for low and mid/high sounds, the kick back current in the low speaker causes little interference with the mid/high speaker. The PM7001 and speakers of Connection Example 1 (pg. 5) use a bi-wiring connection, therefore also refer to that page for help.

Your speaker system must satisfy the below conditions. If it does not, the PM7001s protective circuit will active, whereby preventing proper playback. In some cases, the amplifier and speakers may be damaged. If using 1 set of speakers, total speaker impedance must be 4 or more. If using 2 sets of speakers, total speaker impedance must be 8 or more.

TROUBLESHOOTING
7 Before considering it as a failure
In case of trouble with this component, first check the following before calling for service. What seems to be a serious malfunction is often due to a simple operation mistake. If the trouble is not fixed after making the following checks, contact the place of purchase, your nearest Marantz dealer, our customer service center, or our repair service center.
In the Event of Overcurrent
The protective circuit is activated if current exceeding a certain level is detected, which can happen if excessive signal flow is input to the amplifier or if the PM7001 is connected to a speaker system of less than 4 impedance. The protective circuit is also activated if a speaker cable shorts. In these cases, the MUTE indicator in the center of the panel flashes, and the volume is automatically reduced. Approximately 15 seconds later the protective circuit is released, therefore the volume needs readjusting to continue normal use. Moreover, if the overcurrent continues, the amplifiers power shuts OFF and the STANDBY indicator above the POWER ON/OFF button flashes.
* Power does not turn ON.
1. Is the power cable plugged securely into the power outlet? 2. Isnt the STANDBY indicator above the POWER ON/OFF button lit? Either turn the INPUT SELECTOR knob, or press the MAIN POWER ON button on the remote controller. 3. If the STANDBY indicator is flashing, the protective circuit has been activated. Switch the PM7001s POWER ON/OFF button to the OFF position, wait for more than a minute, and then turn the power back ON.
If excessive ultra-bass signals are input
The protective circuit is also activated if ultra-bass signals that exceed the base signal range settings are input. In this case, the MUTE indicator in the center of the panel flashes, and the volume is automatically reduced. Approximately 15 seconds later, the protective circuit is released, therefore the volume needs readjusting to continue normal use. If excessive ultrabass signal input continues or if DC voltage is detected due to trouble with the amplifier, the power shuts OFF and the STANDBY indicator above the POWER ON/OFF button flashes.
* Nothing is heard from the speakers.
1. Arent the SPEAKER 1 and 2 buttons on the front panel in the OFF position? 2. Isnt the MUTE function activated? 3. Did you make a mistake selecting the input source using the INPUT SELECTOR knob on the front panel? 4. Are you using the component correctly? 5. Are connection cables and speaker cables securely connected. 6. Is the SEPARATE switch on the rear panel set correctly? 7. The volume may have been muted by the protective circuit activated. Try adjusting the volume level again.

If the Main-amplifier Overheats
The protective circuit is activated if the temperature of the mainamplifier section rises above a certain level, which can happen if the amplifier is continually used with excessive signal flow being input into it. The protective circuit is also activated when the set operating temperature is exceeded, which can happen if the vents on top of the amplifier are covered, or if the amplifier is installed on a cramped audio rack. In these cases, the MUTE indicator in the center of the panel flashes, and the volume is automatically reduced. Approximately 15 seconds later, the protective circuit is released, therefore the volume needs readjusting to continue normal use. If the temperature does not sufficiently lower within a certain amount of time after the protective circuit activation, the power shuts OFF and the STANDBY indicator above the POWER ON/OFF button flashes.
* Record player audio is not heard, or contains a lot of noise.
1. Are the PHONO plugs connected correctly? 2. Connect the grounding wire from the record player to the PHONO GND terminal. 3. Is the cartridge connected properly to the tone arm? 4. Sometimes plugging the record players power cable into the power outlet with the polarity reversed can reduce noise.
7 About the Protective Circuit
The PM7001 is equipped with a protective circuit to protect the amplifier circuits and speaker system against damage. If the protective circuit is activated, the sound is instantly muted. In this case, either the MUTE indicator in the center of the panel flashes, or the STANDBY indicator above the POWER ON/OFF button flashes.
In the Event of Amplifier Trouble
The protective circuit is activated and the power is automatically shut OFF if an abnormality is detected in the power circuit. The same happens if the main fuse inside the amplifier blows. In these cases, the STANDBY indicator above the POWER ON/OFF button flashes.

At Power On

For about 8 seconds after the power is turned on, the protective circuit is activated muting the sound to give the amplifier circuits time to stabilize. Once the amplifier circuits stabilize, the protective circuit releases and audio is enabled.
