Designed for use with external power amplifiers such as the Marantz MM8077, MM7055 or MM7025, the AV7706 is not only a superb A/V processor, but also an outstanding analog preamplifier that includes Marantz 's exclusive HDAM modules to ensure optimal channel spacing, minimal crosstalk and superior signal-to-noise ratio, delivering precise detail resolution and stereo imaging. We find the same level of refinement in the video circuitry, compatible with 8K video signals and equipped with the relevant HDMI 2.1 connectivity with all that this entails in increasing image resolution, motion resolution (frame rate) and depth color (12 bits).
Particularly equipped to optimize the gaming experience, the AV7706 allows the routing of 4K signals at 120 frames per second, a spectacular feature that is complemented by functions such as Variable Refresh Rate (VRR), Automatic Low Latency Mode (ALLM) and Quick Frame Transport (QFT) to ensure perfect fluidity of even the most aggressive movements. For its part, Hi-Res audio streaming is carried out using HEOS Built-in technology, which combines robustness and flexibility of use thanks to the power of its dedicated app. The AV7706 also highlights the Audyssey MultEQ XT32 automatic calibration system that it incorporates, whose precision guarantees perfect integration of each piece of equipment in the room.
