HDMI Connectivity with ARC / eARC
The CINEMA 50 supports the latest technology on all HDMI inputs and two of the three outputs. On top of this, ARC (Audio Return Channel) or eARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) makes playing TV audio through your AV receiver simple with just a single HDMI connection. eARC provides HD and 3D audio transmission such as Dolby TrueHD, DTS HD Master Audio, and Dolby Atmos while ARC is limited to conventional 5.1ch audio formats or PCM.

Brilliant Colour From HDR 10+
The CINEMA 50 supports HDR (High Dynamic Range), HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma), as well as Dynamic HDR and HDR10+ pass-through. HLG offers HDR technology over broadcast content. Both Dynamic HDR and HDR10+ use dynamic metadata to optimise shadows and highlights and screens change.
Dolby Vision
Compatible with Dolby Vision so you can enjoy Dolby Vision content from a compatible source device and TV. Dolby Vision is a stunning HDR imaging technology that brings extraordinary colour, contrast, and brightness to the screen.
High-Resolution Audio via USB Input
Discover the incredible fidelity of high-resolution audio tracks and enjoy music as the artist intended. A front USB port supports up to 24bit/192kHz hi-res audio playback from a USB drive. Supported audio formats are MP3, WMA, WAV, MPEG- 4/AAC, FLAC, and ALAC.
Bluetooth Audio Transmitter
Pair your favourite Bluetooth headphones with your AV receiver to continue listening to your favourite music, movies, or TV programs at night. You can also play audio from both speakers and Bluetooth headphones simultaneously. If you have a family member or a friend who is hearing impaired, we recommend this setup. You can connect one pair of headphones at a time.
Multi-Source, Multi-Room
By connecting a pair of speakers in a second room to the AV network receiver, it’s possible to enjoy 7.4 channel surround sound in the main room and a separate source or music stream in the second room, such as a study or patio. You can also play the same audio in both so that everyone in your home can enjoy and cheer your favourite team on Sunday evening or listen to the same song in both rooms. The AV network receiver supports 2-source, 2-zone audio.
Audyssey suite of room correction technology
Marantz receivers use the Audyssey suite of EQ software for simple, accurate setup and calibration. With the supplied Audyssey measuring microphone, Audyssey measures all the speakers in your home theatre, and tunes the AV network receiver to provide the smoothest, most optimal overall listening experience for your room. This AV receiver supports Audyssey MultEQ XT32 room-correction technology. The other supported Audyssey features are Dynamic EQ and Dynamic Volume.
Audyssey MultEQ Editor app
You can go even further with the Audyssey MultEQ Editor app, going “under the hood” to view and adjust settings for detailed tuning—allowing you to customize the sound more precisely to the specific problems in your room and tailor the sound to your personal preferences. With this comprehensive app, you can harness the power of Audyssey MultEQ to take total control of the way your home cinema sounds. The app is available for purchase in iOS and Google Play stores.
Dirac Live Upgradeability
Dirac Live Room Correction applies state-of-the-art, patented algorithms to analyse and digitally reduce room impact and enhance speaker performance. A paid upgrade via Dirac themselves, there are multiple levels for end-users to choose from, included the upgrade to subwoofer performance with Dirac Live Bass Control.
Pre-Amplifier Mode
The CINEMA 50 can work as a superb AV preamplifier with the latest HDMI connectivity. Preamplifier Mode provides a cleaner signal path and more tolerance in clipping level by disconnecting internal amplifiers. Add the flexibility to disconnect select speaker channels so that you can use the AV receiver's built-in amplification to drive non-critical channels to get a clearer signal path for the channels driven by external amplification.
IMAX Enhanced
Get the most premium at-home entertainment experience with IMAX Enhanced, the latest technology from DTS that sets anew standard for home theatre imaging, sound, scale, and clarity. See clearer pictures and brighter images. Feel immersive, heart-pounding audio and experience premium content digitally remastered by IMAX. You can enjoy IMAX Enhanced experience starting from 5.1.4 speaker setup. IMAX Enhanced compatible TV or projector is required.
Auro 3D
Auro-3D elevates the home cinema experience to amazing new levels by delivering the excitement of 3D sound for music, games, broadcast, and films, thanks to the Auro-Matic up mixing engine.
Marantz AVR Remote app
This iOS or Android control app allows you to turn the receiver on and off, select an input source, adjust volume level, and browse music from your phone or in a USB drive when connected to the receiver.
Roon Ready
Roon is a paid software solution that allows you to play music on all the Roon devices around your home: Loved by passionate music fans around the world, Roons' ability to present your favourite music is unparalleled. Roon Ready network devices have Roon's streaming technology built in, and are certified by Roon Labs to provide the highest level of quality and performance in network streaming.
Built-in Phono Stage
The CINEMA 50 features a built-in Moving Magnet (MM) phono stage to allow you to easily connect your turntable and spin your record collection.
Multiple HDMI Outputs
Not only does the Marantz CINEMA 50 have the standard HDMI output, it also offers a mirrored HDMI output in the main zone, perfect for connecting to a projector for the times when you want the biggest screen experience possible in your home cinema. At the same time, you can send the same content to the Zone 2 HDMI output OR a different video source through that port. It's this independent HDMI output that truly gives the CINEMA 50 so much flexibility in multi-room fitouts.
Four Independent Subwoofer Outputs
Four, count them… 4 independent subwoofer outputs mean you can experience tight, accurate and even bass in your home cinema. The CINEMA 50 takes this incredibly flexible subwoofer configuration to another level once you factor in the excellent Audyssey MultEQ XT32 room calibration and its ability to EQ the bottom end in your cinema. Or, step up to the optional Dirac Live for the next level of room compensation equalization.
11 Channel Preouts
The CINEMA 50 is replete with 11 channels of preouts, meaning your AVR can grow with your system, thanks to its ability to add multiple power amplifiers if your sonic requirements change. Combine this with 'preamplifier mode' and it's no surprise that the Marantz CINEMA 50 is considered one of the most flexible AV Network Receivers on the market.
