Source: marantz.com (verified 2026-07-10) · corroborated by amazon.com. Re-fetched and verified against the Marantz US official product page, which confirms verbatim: 9.4 Channels; 125 W per channel (Power Output 8 ohm, 20 Hz - 20 kHz, 0.05% 2ch Drive = 125 W); 7 HDMI inputs (HDMI In / Out 7 / 3) with all 7 supporting 8K ("Total HDMI Inputs / No. Support 8K: 7 / 7"); Dolby Atmos; Audyssey MultEQ XT32 with "Dirac Live Upgradability: Yes"; HEOS Built-in / Wi-Fi / Bluetooth / AirPlay 2 / Spotify Connect; and a $3,800 list price. The Amazon retailer listing corroborates 9.4-Ch (125W X 9), 7-in HDMI all 8K, Dolby Atmos, Audyssey MultEQ XT32, and built-in HEOS/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/AirPlay 2. Note: Amazon shows no active price ("No featured offers available"), so priceUsd rests on the Marantz source; the original note's Best Buy citation could not be verified from the fetched corroboration URL and was corrected. release_year and releaseDate left null: the manufacturer page states no launch year, and Amazon's generic "(2022 Model)" title tag is an unreliable marketing label — null beats a guess. All 8 spec keys survived verification; model confirmed as exact Cinema 40 (not a Cinema 30/50/60/70s sibling).
