sponse. The inner knob 
adjusts the left channel 
treble response. 

Left: Adjusts the tre-

ble loudness from the 

left loudspeaker. Clock-

wise rotation increases 

the treble loudness 

while counterclockwise rotation decreases the tre-

ble loudness. Each step of the tone control adjusts 

the treble loudness about 4 dB. 

Right: Has the same effect on the sound from the 

right loudspeaker. 

TAPE PUSHBUTTONS 

IMPORTANT: When the C 29 is operated with either 

MONITOR pushbutton at the in position, the pro-

gram heard will be that from the tape recorders only. 
Signal from any other source will not be heard from 

the loudspeakers. To hear any other source, make 
sure the MONITOR pushbuttons are OUT. 

The MONITOR switches are mechanically in-

terlocked to prevent simultaneous monitoring from 
two tape recorders. If one button is at the in posi-
tion, it must be pushed again to release it to the out 

position before the other button can be pushed. 

The C 29 is designed so it may be used with two tape 

recorders. The four left pushbuttons control the 

signal output of these recorders. They permit recor-
dings to be monitored as they are being recorded, or 

copying of tapes from one recorder to another while 
listening to a separate program or the playback of 

either recorder. 

MONITOR TAPE 1 pushbutton out: The program 

source as selected by the INPUT SELECTOR is fed 

to the power amplifiers and heard through the 

loudspeakers; pushbutton in: Signal from a tape 
recorder plugged into INPUTS TAPE 1 is fed to the 
power  a m p l i f i e r s and heard  t h r o u g h the 

loudspeakers. 

MONITOR TAPE 2 pushbutton: Functions similarly 

to monitor Tape 1. It also controls the program from 

a tape recorder plugged into the front panel TAPE IN 
and OUT jacks. When a tape recorder is plugged into 
the front jacks all the facilities normally fed to TAPE 

2 on the rear panel are automatically transferred to 
the front panel. The tape recorder plugged into the 
TAPE 2 IN and OUT jacks on the rear panel is 

automatically disconnected. 

TAPE COPY T1 T2 pushbutton in: connects the 

output from tape recorder 1 to the input of tape 

recorder 2 without affecting the program being 

heard from the speakers. In this position a copy of 

the program on tape recorder 1 can be made on tape 

recorder 2. To monitor the original use MONITOR 

TAPE 1 pushbutton and to monitor the copy use 

MONITOR TAPE 2 pushbutton. 

TAPE COPY T2 T1 pushbutton in: connects the 

output from tape recorder 2 to the input of tape 
recorder 1 without affecting the program being 
heard from the speakers. In this position A copy of 

tape program on recorder 2 can be made on recorder 

1. To monitor the original use MONITOR TAPE 2 
pushbutton and to monitor the copy use MONITOR 

TAPE 1 pushbutton. 

LF-HF FILTERS 

Use the LF-HF FILTERS pushbutton to reduce ob-

jectionable low and high frequency noises (below 50 

Hz and above 7 kHz). With the pushbutton in, noise 
is reduced; out: filters are disconnected. 

SPEAKER 1 and 2 

Speakers can be turned on and off when properly 

connected with the accessory Mcintosh SPEAKER 
CONTROL RELAY. The SPEAKER 1 and 2 pushbut-
tons control the operation of a SPEAKER CONTROL 

RELAY when it is plugged into the C 29 rear 

SPEAKER CONTROL RELAY socket. 

The SPEAKER CONTROL RELAY controls the 

audio to two pairs of stereo loudspeakers. The AC 

power to two AC receptacles on the SPEAKER CON-

TROL RELAY is controlled by the ON-OFF cycle of 

the C 29. The total capacity of the SPEAKER CON-

TROL RELAY AC power receptacles is 2400 watts. 

POWER ON 

The POWER ON pushbutton shares AC power 

control, through a current detecting switch circuit, 
with the AC power switch on a turntable. On the rear 

panel the TURNTABLE AUTO/MANUAL switch 
selects the mode of operation. 

When the switch is in the AUTO position and a 

turntable is plugged into one of the green AC power 
outlets, the AC power to the preamp and to the black 
AC power outlets can be controlled by the turntable 

on/off switch. When AC power to the turntable is 
turned on, automatically the preamplifier and the 
SWITCHED black AC power outlets are turned on. 

The system will remain on until the turntable is turn-

ed off. The POWER ON pushbutton switch parallels 
the automatic turntable power control feature. The 

POWER ON pushbutton is used to turn on and off 

power when the turntable is not used. The POWER 

ON pushbutton must be out or off for the turntable 
to control the AC power. 

In the MANUAL position only the POWER ON 

pushbutton will turn the preamplifier and black 

outlet AC power on and off. 

TAPE RECORDER FRONT PANEL CONNECTION 

Input and output facilities are available at the 

TAPE IN-OUT jacks on the front panel. These front
