Smart MN596 Schematics
MN596 Active Stereo Booth Monitor
Overview. T he MN596 6-channel Stereo booth monitor is unique in that it pla ys stereo
movies in the booth. Unlike standard booth monitors that can select only one channel at a time,
or make a composite monaural playback from several channels, the MN596 can present a
panoramic stereo sound to the operator or technician. T he monitor contains two 10 W att power
amplifiers and two wide range loundspeakers, and accepts 6-channel signals from either biamplified two-way systems or conventional single broadband systems.
Listening Modes. T he right knob controls listening mode. When set to AMP STEREO or
PROC STEREO, the MN596 sends Left and Center channel signals to the left speaker, and Right
and Center channel signals to the right speaker , creating a stereo sound with a “phantom” center
channel. The left knob selects the individual c hannel monitored in the AMPLIFIER and PROCESSOR listening modes. ST ANDBY mode disconnects all monitoring signals, but does not
power down the system.
Connections. The MN596 has Phoenix connector inputs for
amplifier and processor signals, as well as an alternate THX standard
DB25 processor connection (see diagram at right). Simply connect
appropriate amplifier and processor signals to the indicated Phoenix
positions.
For systems that are not bi-amplified, connect the LEFT, CENTER
and RIGHT amplifier signals to the LEFT LOW, CENTER LOW, and
RIGHT LOW “FROM AMPLIFIER” inputs respectively.
