INTRODUCTION

This

was

prepared

for

use

by

Authorized

Warranty

and

contains

service

information

for

the

Marantz

Pm-6a

Stereo

Pre

Main

Amplifier.

Servicing

information

and

voltage

data

included

in

this

manual

are

intended

for

use

by

knowledgeable

and

ex-

perienced

personnel

only.

All

instructions

should

be

read

carefully.

No

attempt

should

be

made

to

proceed

without

a

good

understanding

of

circuitry

operation.

The

parts

list

furnishes

complete

ordering

information.

Most

replacement

parts

should:

be

ordered

from

the

Marantz

Company.

However,

a

simple

is

included

for

which

can

be

FEATURES

@

MC

Head

Amplifier

(13

transistors

for

each

channel)

The

first

stage

of

the

MC

head

amplifier

is

a

push-pull

amplifier

consisting

of

4

very

low

noise

NPN

transistors

and

4

very

low

noise

PNP

transistors.

The

second

stage

is

also

a

push

pull

amplifier,

and

the

output

stage

is

a

SEPP

amplifier.

The

feedback

circuit

impedance

is

reduced

as

much

as

possible

to

improve

the

S/N

ratio,

and

a

voltage

gain

of

20

dB

(10

times)

is

obtained

at

a

rated

input

level

of

125

uV.

@

PHONO

Amplifier

(11

transistors

for

each

channel)

The

PHONO

amplifier

uses

a

full

push-pull

circuit

con-

sisting

of

11

transistors

for

each

channel

so

that

low

TIM

distortion

and

a

high

S/N

ratio

are

obtained.

The

first

stage

is

a

push-pull

circuit

consisting

of

very

low

noise,

high

Gm

N

and

P

channel

FETs

combined

with

a

cascode

current

Miller

circuit

so

that

degradation

of

following

stage

characteristics

due

to

input

stage

im-

pedance

fluctuation

is

prevented.

The

second

stage

consists

of

an

emitter

follower

buffer

amplifier

and

a

push-pull

voltage

amplifier.

The

output

stage

uses

a

SEPP

circuit

which

is

adequate

to

drive

any

type

of

load.

The

equalizer

elements

have

very

low

impedances

compared

with

conventional

circuits

so

a

S/N

ratio

of

90

dB

is

obtained

at

the

rated

input

level.

The

equalizer

elements

are

metal

film

resistors

with

tolerances

of

1%

and

polypropylene

capacitors

with

tolerances

of

2%;

this

makes

it

possible

to

obtaine

an

RIAA

phono

equalization

of

+0.2

dB

over

the

audio

range

from

20

Hz

—

20

kHz.

Input

impedances

27

kQ,

47

kQ

and

100

kQ

are

provided

for

different

types

of cartridges

when

the

PHONO

1

input

is

selected.

The

PHONO

amplifier

output

circuit

is

provided

with

a

relay

to

mute

undesirable

noise

when

the

power

is

switched

ON

and

OFF,

and

with

a

EQ

subsonic

filter

to

reduce

turntable

rumble

and

flutter.

Quarter

A

System

The

quarter

A

system

automatically

switches

the

bias

current

and

supply

voltage

to

the

main

amplifier

by

de-

tecting

the

main

amplifier

input

voltage

and

speaker

current;

thus,

the

main

amplifier

operates

in

class

A

when

the

power

output

is

up

to

30W/8Q,

and

in

class

AB

when

the

power

output

exceeds

that

level.

The

phase

correction

circuit

in

the

detection

circuit

prevents

distortion

from

being

generated

even

if

a

wave-

form

with

a

sharp

rising

edge

is

applied.

Marantz’s

usual

superb

amplifier

circuit

has

not

been

altered

in

this

system,

except

that

the

detection

circuit

is

connected

to

the

signal

system.

Voltage

amplifier

The

input

circuit

of

the

voltage

amplifier

is

a

source

follower

using

a

pair

of

FETs,

so

variation

in

the

im-

pedance

of

this

stage

does

not

influence

following

stage

characteristics.

The

is

a

differential

amplifier

using

a

dual

transistor,

followed

by

an

active

balance

loading

circuit

using

a

dual

transistor.

One

of

the

differential

amplifier

output

signals

is

phase-

inverted,

then

both

signals

are

applied

to

the

push-pull

amplifier

through

the

emitter

follower

buffer.

Power

amplifier

The

power

amplifier

employs

triple

Darlington

connection

and

supper

high

f—

power

transistors

connected

in

paral-

lel.

The

power

amplifier

uses

unique

push-pull

circuit

with

ex-

cellent

open

loop

characteristics

and

a

2-pole

phase

com-

pensation

circuit,

so

the

frequency

response

is

flat

even

at

high

frequencies

and

TIM

distortion

is

reduced

remark-

ably,

Other

features

The

speaker

protection

circuit

uses

a

high

performance

IC

and

relay.

The

power

supply

circuit

uses

a

large

trans-

former

with

high

regulation

and

newly

developed,

large

capacity

custom

electrolytic

capacitors.

To

obtain

continuous

high

power

output,

high

efficiency

heat

pipes

are

used

to

radiate

the

heat

produced

by

the

power

transistors.
