USING THE FRONT PANEL CONTROLS
INPUT SELECTOR
INPUT SELECTOR: Selects any one of
six program sources:
AUX: Any high level program source re-
quiring flat amplification, such as a tele-
vision set, is connected to the input stage
of the MX 114 in the AUX position. The
gain is 20 dB to the MAIN outputs. The
gain is 0 dB to the TAPE outputs.
TAPE: Any self-contained tape machine
(tape machine having its own playback
preamplifier) is connected to the high
level input stage of the MX 114 in the
TAPE position. Has flat amplification. The
gain is 20 dB to the MAIN outputs. The
gain is 0 dB to the TAPE outputs.
FM: Connects the FM tuner portion of the
MX 114 to the output jacks.
PHONO 1: Connects the back panel jacks
(PH 1) to the MX 114. The amplification
has been compensated for magnetic
phono cartridges. The gain is 62 dB to
the MAIN outputs and 42 dB to the TAPE
outputs. The input impedance is 47,000
ohms.
PHONO 2: Connects the back panel jacks
(PH 2) to the MX 114. The amplification
has been compensated for magnetic
phono cartridges. The gain is 62 dB to
the MAIN output and 42 dB to the TAPE
outputs. The input impedance is 47,000
ohms.
BASS
The BASS is a concentric control. The
large outer knob controls the low fre-
quency response in the right channel.
The small center knob controls the low
frequency response in the left channel.
The two knobs are friction coupled. This
permits them to be adjusted together or
independently. Clockwise rotation in-
creases lows and counterclockwise de-
creases lows. Position the control to the
center position for flat response.
TREBLE
The TREBLE is a concentric control. The
outer knob controls the high frequency
response in the right channel. The small
center knob controls the high frequency
response in the left channel. The two
knobs are friction coupled. This permits
them to be adjusted together or in de-
pendently. Clockwise rotation increases
highs and counterclockwise decreases
highs. Flat is the center position.
BALANCE
The BALANCE control adjusts for un-
equal volume in either the left or right
channels. The volume of each channel
can be varied relative to each other with-
out affecting their combined loudness
LEFT . . . turning the control to the left
accents the left channel by reducing the
right channel output.
RIGHT . .. turning the control to the right
accents the right channel by reducing
the left channel output.
VOLUME ON/OFF
Turning the VOLUME totally counter-
clockwise turns the MX 114 OFF. The
VOLUME control regulates the loudness
in both channels. The VOLUME control
has been precision tracked through out
the listening range (0 to -65dB) for acccu-
rate stereo balance.
