Setup, con’t
The MHA150 allows for the connection of Loudspeak-
ers with different performance capabilities. One of the
differences in Loudspeaker performance is the ability
to reproduce bass frequencies down to 35Hz within
-3dB of the midrange frequencies.
The MHA150 provides two different settings,
LARGE and SMALL. The LARGE listing refers to
the Loudspeaker’s capability for reproducing bass fre-
quencies down to 35Hz within -3dB of the midrange
frequencies. If a Loudspeaker can not reproduce bass
frequencies down to 35Hz within -3dB of the mid-
range frequencies, it is considered SMALL.
In the following example, the Speaker Size default set-
ting of LARGE will be changed to SMALL:
1. Press and hold the INPUT CONTROL until the
Front Panel Display indicates the Model, Firmware
Version and Serial Number. Refer to figure 2. Then
rotate the INPUT CONTROL and select the Setup
Menu item “SPEAKER MODE, Large”. Refer to
figure 13.

Subwoofer Mode
The MHA150 is designed to work with an external
Powered Subwoofer. The subwoofer would be used
when the Loudspeakers connected to MHA150 Output
Terminals do not have the ability to reproduce bass
frequencies down to 35Hz (within -3dB of the mid-
range frequencies).
The MHA150 provides two different Subwoofer
Mode settings, “Disabled” and “Enabled”. The De-
fault Setting of “Disabled” provides a Stereo Signal at
the PREAMPlifier OUPUT Jacks. When the setting
is changed to “Enabled” the Left and Right channel
signals are combined into a monaural signal available
at both PREAMP OUPUT Jacks. In the following
example, the Subwoofer Mode default setting of DIS-
ABLED will be changed to Enable:
1. Press and hold the INPUT CONTROL until the
Front Panel Display indicates the Model, Firmware
Version and Serial Number. Refer to figure 2. Then
rotate the INPUT CONTROL and select the Setup
Menu item “SUBWOOFER MODE, Disabled”.

The MHA150 incorporates an Auto Off Feature,
which automatically places it into the Power Saving
Standby/Off Mode. This occurs approximately 30
minutes after there has been an absence of audible
audio signals on the selected input (on either chan-
nel) or user activity (includes changes to any of the
Operation Functions such as source selection, volume
adjustment, etc). If it is desirable to disable the Auto
Off Feature perform the following steps:
1. Press and hold the INPUT CONTROL until the
Front Panel Display indicates the Setup Mode is
