CONNECTING THE MAGNAT MULTI MONITOR 220
Connecting audio sources to the active speaker
1. Connection to an amplifier, AV receiver or other analogue audio source
Connect the audio input of the active loudspeaker (RCA IN, Fig. 2 (6)) to the audio output on the device using an RCA stereo audio cable.
CAUTION: The switch (Fig. 2 (4)) must be set to LINE.
2. Connecting a record player to the active loudspeaker
Connect the audio input of the active loudspeaker (RCA IN, Fig. 2 (6)) to the audio output on the record player using an RCA stereo audio
cable. In addition, the earth wire of the record player (where present) has to be connected to the screw terminal (Fig. 2 (5)).
CAUTION: The switch (Fig. 2 (4)) must be set to PHONO.
3. Connect to a headphone jack or pre-amplifier output with 3.5mm jack
Connect the audio input of the active loudspeaker (AUX IN, Fig. 2 (7)) to the headphone output on your amplifier, TV, MP3 player, smartphone,
etc. using a 3.5 mm audio cable/3.5 mm stereo jack.
4. Connecting to digital audio sources
Connect the audio input of the active loudspeaker (Digital IN, Fig. 2 (9, 10)) to the digital output on your CD player, computer, games
console, network player or TV using an optical or coaxial digital audio cable. The digital inputs can be selected separately, therefore it is
possible to connect two digital sources simultaneously.
PLEASE NOTE: The digital inputs are suitable for stereo signals up to 24 bit/192kHz
5. Connection to a Bluetooth device
Switch the active loudspeaker to the Bluetooth input. If you have previously connected a Bluetooth device, the sound deck will automatically
attempt to re-establish a connection with this device. If this is the case, you may be required to manually reconfirm the connection on the
source device.
If a connection has not already been made or the connection cannot be re-established, activate the ‚pairing mode'. To switch the speaker
to the pairing mode, briefly press the PAIR button (Fig. 3, (20)) on the remote control. The blue STBY/Pair LED (Fig. 1, (1)) will flash quickly
whenever the pairing mode is active.
Now activate the Bluetooth mode on your source device. The speaker will appear in the list of Bluetooth devices as „Multi Monitor 220".
If it is not displayed in the list, set your source device to search for Bluetooth devices manually and make sure that the speaker has been
switched to the pairing mode.
Depending on the source device, you may be asked whether the password is to be accepted during the pairing procedure. You can confirm
this by simply pressing „Accept". If you are still asked for a password, use the default passwords „0000" or „1234". If you are asked if you
want to establish a connection after pairing, please select „Yes". When the device has been paired and connected successfully the LED
status indicator will illuminate continuously blue.
The sound deck supports the „Qualcomm® aptX™" high quality audio transmission standard. If your source device also supports this
standard, „Qualcomm® aptX™" will be selected automatically as the transfer mode when establishing a Bluetooth connection.
NOTE:
Please check whether the output of the audio source
a) has a fixed volume level or
b) the level can be adjusted with the volume controller of the audio source.
In case a) you can adjust the volume using the remote control of the MAGNAT Multi Monitor 220; in case b) the level of the audio source should
be set to a maximum level where no distortions can be heard at the highest volume setting of the Multi Monitor 220. The volume of the audio
source should also be taken into account. No distortions should be evident here either.
Connecting the left speaker
The set consists of an active speaker and a passive speaker. A stereo amplifier is incorporated in the active speaker.
The left, passive speaker is connected using the supplied cable. Please take the polarities into account when doing this. The positive terminal
of the active speaker must be connected with the positive terminal of the passive speaker and the negative terminal of the active speaker
must be connected with the negative terminal of the passive speaker. One wire of the speaker cable is marked to provide protection against
polarity reversal.
Connecting a subwoofer to the active speaker
The active speaker has a subwoofer output (fig. 2 (8)) at the rear for controlling an active subwoofer. Use a mono audio cable and the LINE-IN
input of the active subwoofer. The subwoofer output has a low-pass filter with a cut-off frequency of 150Hz. This speaker is ideally suited for
operation with an active subwoofer with a variable low-pass filter.
