Description audioclassic Store SquareTrade © AP6.0MCINTOSH MX132 HOME THEATER CONTROL CENTERJUST CERTIFIEDEXCELLENT CONDITION!NEW FACEPLATEThis MCINTOSH MX132 is in EXCELLENT CONDITION! It looks LIKE NEW, operates PERFECTLY and sounds TERRIFIC!This MX132 has just been inspected by an authorized Mac service technician and is in EXCELLENT working condition.Included with this MX132 is a NEW McIntosh shipping carton with all packing materials, Mac remote and AC power cord. The owner’s manual can be downloaded from the link below:MX-132 OWNERS MANUALThere is an optional walnut cabinet that can be purchased but is NOT included with the MX-132 as part of this auction. If the winning bidder wants the cabinet, the additional charge will be $150 plus the cost of shipping. See pictures 10 - 12.The MX132 features one of the most powerful DSP engines available. Three Motorola 24-bit digital signal processors decode Dolby Digital¨, Pro Logic, and DTS¨ soundtracks. One divides a digital bit stream into the Dolby Digital and Pro Logic channels. Another is dedicated to decoding DTS. The third handles bass-channel management as well as ancillary functions. Except in pure Stereo mode, all analog inputs are processed by a 24-bit stereo A/D converter. Three additional 24-bit D/A converters handle the DSP output.HOME THX¨ CINEMA. Speaker Position Time Synchronization and Dynamic Decorrelation – two THX enhancements for Dolby Digital – optimize sound in rooms lacking proper speaker locations.TRIM SELECT. Settings for subwoofer, surround speakers, center speaker, treble, bass, loudness, and display can be adjusted using the TRIM LEVEL knob or via remote. The settings are shown on the MX132’s large display. For each operating mode only the appropriate trim options can be accessed.ON-SCREEN SETUP. All speaker size selection, room calibration, and custom sound enhancement features can be set from the listening position via remote control. SUPER-TRACKING VOLUME CONTROL. Level differences among channels in a stereo or surround system compromise sound imaging. The MX132 uses an electronic volume control with tracking accuracy better than 0.5dB for all six channels.ACTIVE VARIABLE LOUDNESS COMPENSATION. Typical loudness circuits apply a fixed amount of compensation for listening at low volume. The MX132 includes a separate loudness circuit that applies compensation proportionately. When off, the loudness circuit elements are completely removed from the signal path.MATCHED AND BUFFERED VIDEO SWITCHING. High-resolution video sources such as DVDs demand high-quality video switching. Each MX132 video input is terminated with 75 ohms to maintain a proper impedance match. Video buffer amps feed the two monitor video outputs, ensuring no loss in picture quality. Built-in digital comb filters convert composite video to S-video, allowing use of S-video outputs for all video sources.AUTOMATIC INPUT LEVEL CONTROL. The analog input to the DSP features a circuit similar to the Power Guard¨ used in McIntosh amplifiers. AILC continuously monitors input voltage and if overdrive occurs reduces the input level, preventing distortion.BALANCED CONNECTIONS (Zone B). A balanced connection provides 40dB more noise protection than an unbalanced connection. The balanced output of the MX132’s Zone B allows distant placement of a Zone B amp without compromising sound.The buyer is responsible for all shipping charges.
