Built-in Bluetooth, Wi-Fi streaming, and HEOS support, plus Apple AirPlay compatibility, let you stream and enjoy your favorite audio wirelessly.
HDMI Connectivity and HDCP 2.2 Compliance
The Marantz AV8805 supports HDCP 2.2 on all eight HDMI inputs, as well as 4K Ultra HD 60 Hz video, 4:4:4 pure color sub-sampling, High Dynamic Range (HDR), 21:9 video, 3D, and BT.2020 pass-through. It is compatible with 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray disc players, set-top boxes, and other 4K Ultra HD sources. Dolby Vision compatibility, HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma), and HDR format for broadcasting and pass-through are also supported.
HDMI eARC Object-Based Audio Support via Firmware Update
eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) supports the transmission of 3D audio from your TV apps with a single HDMI connection for simple setup. This feature is scheduled to be made available via a future firmware update.
Built-In Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and AirPlay Capabilities
Featuring Bluetooth and Wi-Fi wireless streaming connectivity, the AV8805 is equipped with an advanced dual-antenna transceiver system for robust streaming even in congested urban environments. Plus, with Apple AirPlay compatibility, you can enjoy listening to your favorite audio content wirelessly from iOS devices such as iPhones and iPads.
Hi-Res Audio
The AV8805 lets you discover the fidelity of high-resolution audio tracks with the ability to decode up to 24-bit/192 kHz ALAC, FLAC, and WAV lossless files as well as DSD 2.8 MHz and 5.6 MHz tracks (the audiophile format of SACD) via the front-panel USB port and network sources. It also allows you to listen to other popular file types such as MP3.
Advanced 32-Bit D/A Conversion on All Channels
The Marantz AV8805 features premium grade AK4490 32-bit DACs on all channels and XLR input and outputs. There's a balanced XLR stereo input that's assignable as well as 15.2 balanced XLR outputs, which includes the two subwoofer outputs, front height/width outputs, and overhead channels. This extensive balanced XLR compatibility ensures high-end performance in the home and the studio, while 15.2 pre-outs (RCA jacks) provide additional compatibility with multiple power amplifier types.
High-Grade Audio Components
The AV8805 features Marantz proprietary HDAM (Hyper Dynamic Amplifier Module) components, which consist of precision-matched circuit elements on a compact sub-board along with ultra-wide-band response (100 kHz, -3 dB) for an open soundstage with refined detail reproduction.
Dual Subwoofer Outputs
A single subwoofer demands optimal placement to avoid audible peaks and dips in the low-frequency response at the main listening position. The AV8805 supports two subwoofers: used in different locations, these even out the low-frequency response for more accurate bass anywhere in the room.
Easy to Set Up, Easy to Use
For easy installation, the AV8805's clear graphical on-screen display has a Setup Assistant that provides guidance and helps optimize critical settings to maximize sound quality, whatever your configuration.
