POWER
The red button turns the MX130 on. The panel will
illuminate to indicate the program source that has been
selected and special operating modes.
HEADPHONE JACK
The MX130 has sufficient built-in power capability
to feed a low impedance dynamic headphone connected
to the HEADPHONE jack. The headphone jack is located
behind the motorized ACCESS door.
REAR PANEL INFORMATION
The rear panel of the MX130 has 3 groups of RCA
jacks for audio, AUDIO INPUTS, RECORD PROCESSOR,
and AUDIO OUTPUTS. In addition there are two XLR
connectors for LEFT FRONT, and RIGHT FRONT
balanced outputs.
The AUDIO INPUTS are PHONO, AUX, CD1, CD2,
TAPE 1, TAPE 2, SAT, TV, LV, VCR1, VCR2, and V-
AUX.
PHONO and AUX are combined on one position of
the selector switches. The user must decide which way
he will use the inputs. A moving magnet phono
cartridge may be plugged into the PHONO input or any
high level source into the AUX. However the insertion
of an RCA plug into the AUX jack switches the phono
preamp off. Only one input may be used at a time.
The RECORD PROCESSOR jacks are for TO and FROM
the processor.
The AUDIO OUTPUTS are TAPE 1, TAPE 2, VCR1,
VCR2, L&R FRONT, CENTER, SUBWOOFER and L&R
SURROUND.
There are a pair of AREA B outputs for its power
amplifier.
All six SURROUND SOUND audio outputs and a
power ON/OFF control signal are brought to a male 25
pin subminiature "D" connector. A mating female
connector is provided on the MC7106 six channel power
amplifier. One cable is all that's necessary for a
surround sound interconnect.
There are two groups of VIDEO INPUT and VIDEO
OUTPUT jacks. The RCA jacks are for composite video
and the mini-DINs are for SVHS.
The VIDEO INPUTS are SAT, TV, LV, VCR1, VCR2
and V-AUX. The V-AUX inputs are switched to the front
panel CAMCORDER inputs when the ACCESS door is
opened.
The VIDEO OUTPUTS are VCR-1, VCR-2 MONITOR
A and MONITOR B. VCR-1, VCR-2 and MONITOR B
outputs are fed from the RECORD (B) input selector and
the MONITOR A output is fed from the LISTEN (A) input
selector. This allows one to be watching and listing to
one VIDEO source while taping another or to feed two
different VIDEO sources to a monitor equipped for
"Picture in a Picture" viewing.
A TV modulator is provided for a TV channel 3 or
4 output. The input to the modulator can be selected
(A or B) by a rear panel switch. It switches both
composite video and audio. Mono audio is provided and
its level may be adjusted by the TV AUDIO potentiome-
ter.
Several Surround Sound functions are provided by
rear panel switches. The HIGH PASS switch switches
high pass filters in the LEFT FRONT. CENTER and RIGHT
FRONT channels ON or OFF. When large full range
speakers are used for the front channels the switch
should be in the OFF position.
Compact speaker systems that utilize a separate
SUBWOOFER require the HIGH PASS switch to be in
the ON position. Low frequency sound at high levels
can overload compact speakers.
The CENTER SPEAKER switch position is again
determined by speaker type. If no CENTER speaker is
used, the switch should be placed in the NONE position.
This position feeds CENTER (L&R) information to the
LEFT FRONT and RIGHT FRONT channels to create a
PHANTOM CENTER channel. A small compact speaker
for the CENTER channel requires that the switch be
placed in the SMALL position. Here the switch places
a high pass filter in the CENTER channel and diverts the
