INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the DH9300 Music Server from Marantz. The

DH9300 is a revolutionary way of filling your home with music.

Your Music Server stores and catalogues your music

collection, allowing you to select any album or track at the

press of a key. You can browse through your albums and

tracks using convenient on-screen menus displayed on

your television, showing full album, track, and artist names

downloaded from the Internet CD database. Your Music

Server also lets you organise your music collection and

create selections for different occasions to suit your mood.

Incredible capacity

Your Music Server is a hard disk based audio system which

can store hundreds of hours of music, all with the

convenience of instant access, at the touch of a key.

Convenient TV screen

Play music, record CDs, or organise your library using

convenient on-screen menus which show the full album,

artist, and track names, allowing you to select the one you

want with a few simple selections.

Internet access for track listings

Your Music Server records the CDs from your music

collection at faster than real time. It then automatically

connects to a dedicated Internet CD database via the built-

in modem or Ethernet connection. This database provides

album and track details for a wide range of CDs. This

information can be downloaded and stored with each CD

you record, allowing you to select any item in your music

collection by album name, artist name, track name, or

genre, giving you total flexibility in the way you access and

control your music collection.

Create your own playlists

Your Music Server allows you to compile personal playlists

and then automatically play tracks from the playlist you

have selected. Playlists let you customise your Music

Server for each member of the family, or for matching the

music to the occasion or mood.

Instant access, irrespective of your music collection

Whether you select a track by title, album, artist, or genre,

your Music Server locates it instantly and plays it at the

press of a key. All this is achieved with an extremely simple

and intuitive user interface, operated using a few keys on

the front panel or remote control.
