MT2 FEATURES

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations and thank you for purchasing the MaxTV MT2 by Proficient Audio.

The MaxTV MT2 is a tabletop, under TV amplified speaker system designed to deliver high-quality audio for

a flat panel TV. Flat panel TV audio is exactly that...flat. There isn’t a whole lot of room for speakers and 

amplifiers in a flat panel TV and as a result the quality of the sound suffers.

The MaxTV MT2 is the result of years of successful research and design by Proficient Audio, one of the premier 

manufacturers of speakers, amplifiers, subwoofers, multi-room and wireless audio systems. The experience of 

developing such a wide range of products has all been put together in creating the MaxTV MT2.

The MT2 typically sits on an audio/video equipment cabinet or table top with a flat panel TV sitting on top of the 

MT2. The MT2 takes up little more space than the TV itself. This is where the years of audio design experience 

pay off. Big sound requires big speakers, right? Big speakers require big amplifiers. And doesn’t home theater 

require having speakers all over the room? Not necessarily.

The MT2 is a single cabinet that provides full stereo audio that can be enhanced with advanced Digital Signal 

Processing (DSP) to create simulated surround sound that spreads the soundstage coming from the speakers 

so ambient sounds of TV and movie soundtracks appear to come from all over the room and not just from the 

speakers. The left and right channels each have dual 21/2" treated paper midrange drivers on either side of a 1" 

silk dome tweeter. This midrange-tweeter-midrange arrangement provides focused channel separation and 

clarity. For solid bass, the subwoofers, two 51/4" cone speakers, one each for the left and right channels, are hid-

den underneath the cabinet. This down-firing configuration, combined with scientifically tuned bass ports are 

what create such a big sound from such a small, low profile cabinet. The bass ports are actually components to 

the subwoofer enclosure so that when the subwoofers are driving low frequencies, the ports are designed to 

accentuate low frequency sounds without the need for big speakers, amps or cabinets.

The TV audio output (digital or analog) gets connected to one of the MT2 audio inputs. The TV speakers get 

turned off and audio is played through the MT2.

The MT2 comes with a full-function IR remote control. The remote controls power, volume, mute, input select, 

tone controls and simulated surround sound. There is an IR sensor behind the front panel grille that ‘sees’  the 

commands from the remote allowing arm-chair control of the MT2.

But MaxTV isn’t just for TV. With three hardwired source inputs (optical digital, coaxial digital and L&R line 

level audio) MaxTV can also be used as a music system as well! Music sources such as CD players, portable 

music players, computers, internet radio...any audio source with an optical, coaxial or line level audio output 

can be connected to MaxTV. But that’s still not the whole story...

MaxTV is also Bluetooth compatible. This wireless connection can sync to almost any Bluetooth compatible 

audio device, so when friends or family come over, a ‘guest’ music player can get connected in just seconds, 

to really get the party started. Want to switch to something on TV or another music device and then come 

back to the Bluetooth device? No problem. The Bluetooth device will stay ‘connected’ until it is turned off, the 

device moves out of range or the connection is removed.

MaxTV MT2. Small box. Big sound. Big features. Big fun.

Please read and follow the instructions in this manual to assist in proper connection and use of the MaxTV MT2.
