Description
Marantz CINEMA 30 11.4-Channel AV Receiver
Reference 11.4-Channel Home Theatre Hub with 140W per Channel, 8K HDMI and HEOS Built-In
Marantz CINEMA 30 is built for people who want a flagship-grade home theatre receiver that feels more like high-end separates than a typical AVR. It’s engineered and crafted in Japan, delivering serious amplification, advanced processing, modern HDMI capability and the flexibility to build anything from an elegant living-room system to a full-scale immersive cinema.
CINEMA 30 sits at the top of Marantz's current receiver range for customers who want extensive amplification, processing and connectivity in one chassis.
Built for Big Systems
11.4 Channels of Amplification, Ready to Expand
CINEMA 30 features 11.4 channels of built-in amplification and is designed to support ambitious speaker layouts. For customers building larger systems or planning future upgrades, it also supports 13.4 pre-outs , making it easy to add external power amplification later without replacing the receiver.
That channel count gives system designers useful scope for immersive layouts with height speakers, multiple subwoofers and future external amplification.
Reference-Class Amplification
140 Watts per Channel with Low Distortion
Power matters, but control matters more. CINEMA 30 is rated at 140 W per channel into 8 ohms (20 Hz – 20 kHz at 0.05% THD) , with a 6-ohm rating also specified. Speaker load support is listed as 4–16 ohms .
The published wide-band power specification is relevant in larger home theatre systems where several speakers may be active at the same time. Speaker choice, room size and listening level should still be considered as part of the complete system.
HDMI and Video Performance
7 HDMI Inputs, 3 HDMI Outputs, 8K Ready
CINEMA 30 is ready for modern sources with 7 HDMI inputs (all 8K) and 3 HDMI outputs , including eARC support.
This makes it a clean solution for systems that combine a TV or projector with multiple sources like a streaming box, UHD Blu-ray player, game console and media server.

The Audio Experts Take
CINEMA 30 is the Marantz receiver to consider when a larger home theatre needs eleven powered channels in one chassis. Start with the speaker layout and room rather than the headline channel count, then decide whether any channels need external amplification and how the subwoofers will be integrated. For a system at this level, talk to The Audio Experts and we can help plan the receiver, speakers and calibration together.
