Operating Notes
SYSTEM ACCESSORIESHOME THEATER
BS-ENCODED 5.1
MSE1 AUTO or MANUAL Mode- decodes and outputs LS/BS/RS channels
STANDARD 5.1
MSE1 AUTO Mode- no BS channel
- LS/RS pass through unchanged
STANDARD 5.1
MSE1 MANUAL Mode- creates artificial BS channel from LS + RS
Using the MSE1 with the MX132 and MC206 or MC126 Using the MSE1 with the MX132 and MC7205
In this setup, the MC206 or MC126 powers the ALL channels. The
MSE1 processes and outputs the LS and RS signals. When the BS
channel is active, it is powered by the remaining sixth channel of the
MC206 or MC126. A powered sub can be connected to the SUB
output of the MSE1. This output, which is an option provided by
McIntosh, is active regardless of the mode. In this setup, the MC7205 powers the L/C/R/LS/RS channels. The
MSE1 processes and outputs the LS and RS signals. When the BS
channel is active, it is powered by an additional amplifier, such as the
McIntosh MC162. (Note: Its OK to use both channels of a stereo
amp and therefore have two BS speakers.) A powered sub can be
connected to the SUB output of the MSE1. This output, which is an
option provided by McIntosh, is active regardless of the mode.
