connections. If your connected device has this
capability, the MTI100 will take advantage of
this high-denition connection. The MTI100
will automatically utilize HD Bluetooth when
connected to a source that supports it. Simply
connect with Bluetooth as above.
The MTI100 also supports higher than CD quality
resolution of 24-bit/48kHz. If your connected
device supports this, then that resolution will be
utilized automatically.
More Outputs
SUB (Subwoofer)
If you wish to add a subwoofer, connect the
subwoofer using an RCA cable to the SUB
connector. This output is a full frequency mono
signal which combines left and right channels
20Hz to 20kHz. Use your external subwoofer’s
built-in crossover adjustments.
Main
The Main Output allows the use of a separate
external power amplier. To use a separate power
amplier instead of the MTI100’s integrated
amplier:
• Remove the McIntosh Jumpers (2) between
the MAIN Output and the PWR AMP IN.
• Connect an additional amplier using RCA
cables paying attention to Left (bottom) and
Right (top).
If you wish to use both an external amplier and
the MTI100’s integrated amplier, two shielded
RCA Type Audio “Y” Adapters can be used. (One
adapter for left and one for right). Use 2 of the 3
RCA jacks of the “Y” adapter to jump the MAIN
OUT and PWR AMP IN, and the third jack will
connect to the external amplier.
Trigger Out
The TRIGGER OUT is an output that can be
connected to other McIntosh equipment using
a 3.5mm stereo mini phone plug to send a +12
volt/0 volt signal for power control. This will
enable additional equipment to be powered on and
off by simply controlling the MTI100.
Data Out
Using a 3.5mm stereo mini phone plug to connect
to other components, the DATA OUT can send
remote control signals to allow other McIntosh
Equipment to be controlled using the MTI100
remote.
Inputs
Optical and Coax
Using an optical cable to connect to OPTICAL
or a coaxial cable to connect to COAX, digital
signals up to 192kHz with 24-bit resolution can be
decoded by the MTI100’s internal DAC.
AUX (Auxiliary)
An additional analog source can be added to the
MTI100 by connecting a pair of RCA cables to the
AUX connectors.
Service Port
The SERVICE PORT enables a USB connection
for future rmware upgrades. It is not a USB
digital input.
AC Power
Use the included AC Power Cord to connect the
MTI100 to a working AC outlet. Make sure the
voltage matches the value printed above the AC
Connector on the right side of the rear of the unit.
Headphones
On the right side of the front of the MTI100 is a
1/4-inch Headphone Jack. To listen to headphones,
plug them into the Headphone Jack. This will
mute the other outputs until the headphones are
disconnected.
Controlling Your Unit
