Flat panel TV audio is exactly that...flat. There isn’t a whole lot of room for speakers and amplifiers in a flat panel TV and as a result the quality of the sound suffers.The MaxTV MT2 is the result of years of successful research and design by Proficient Audio, one of the premier manufacturers of speakers, amplifiers, subwoofers, multi-room and wireless audio systems. The experience of developing such a wide range of products has all been put together in creating the MaxTV MT2.The MT2 typically sits on an audio/video equipment cabinet or table top with a flat panel TV sitting on top of the MT2. The MT2 takes up little more space than the TV itself. This is where the years of audio design experience pay off. Big sound requires big speakers, right? Big speakers require big amplifiers. And doesn’t home theater require having speakers all over the room? Not necessarily.The MT2 is a single cabinet that provides full stereo audio that can be enhanced with advanced Digital Signal Processing (DSP) to create simulated surround sound that spreads the soundstage coming from the speakers so ambient sounds of TV and movie soundtracks appear to come from all over the room and not just from the speakers. The left and right channels each have dual 2½" treated paper midrange drivers on either side of a 1" silk dome tweeter. This midrange-tweeter-midrange arrangement provides focused channel separation and clarity. For solid bass, the subwoofers, two 5¼" cone speakers, one each for the left and right channels, are hid-den underneath the cabinet. This down-firing configuration, combined with scientifically tuned bass ports are what create such a big sound from such a small, low profile cabinet. The bass ports are actually components to the subwoofer enclosure so that when the subwoofers are driving low frequencies, the ports are designed to accentuate low frequency sounds without the need for big speakers, amps or cabinets.The TV audio output (digital or analog) gets connected to one of the MT2 audio inputs. The TV speakers get turned off and audio is played through the MT2.The MT2 comes with a full-function IR remote control. The remote controls power, volume, mute, input select, tone controls and simulated surround sound. There is an IR sensor behind the front panel grille that ‘sees’ the commands from the remote allowing arm-chair control of the MT2.But MaxTV isn’t just for TV. With three hardwired source inputs (optical digital, coaxial digital and L&R line level audio) MaxTV can also be used as a music system as well! Music sources such as CD players, portable music players, computers, internet radio...any audio source with an optical, coaxial or line level audio output can be connected to MaxTV. But that’s still not the whole story...MaxTV is also Bluetooth compatible. This wireless connection can sync to almost any Bluetooth compatible audio device, so when friends or family come over, a ‘guest’ music player can get connected in just seconds, to really get the party started. Want to switch to something on TV or another music device and then come back to the Bluetooth device? No problem. The Bluetooth device will stay ‘connected’ until it is turned off, the device moves out of range or the connection is removed.MaxTV MT2. Small box. Big sound. Big features. Big fun.Please read and follow the instructions in this manual to assist in proper connection and use of the MaxTV MT2.

DOWN FIRING SUBWOOFERS - The MT2 bottom panel features two 5-¼" subwoofers, one for left channel bass one for right channel bass. This down-firing configuration, combined with the front and rear panel bass ports is what allows the MT2 to achieve such outstanding bass performance in such a small cabinet. When handling the MT2, be careful not to grab or hold the cabinet on the bottom where the subwoofers are located to prevent damaging the subwoofers. Also take care to not set the cabinet down on anything that can damage the subwoofers. When placing the MT2 on a shelf or stand, be sure there are no objects under the cabinet that will block the subwoofers and check to make sure there are no objects on the sides of the cabinet that will block the space under the MT2. Blocking this space will reduce overall bass performance.
10 11INSTALLATION CONNECTIONSFlat ScreenTVMaxTVA/V SourcesTABLE TOP INSTALLATIONThe MaxTV MT2 is ideally designed for table top installation. In this application the MT2 is placed on a cabinet top and becomes a pedestal for the TV. Very little space beyond that already used by the TV is required.DOWN-FIRING SUBWOOFERS/REAR PORTSThe MT2 has two down-firing subwoofers. The MT2 should always be placed on a solid surface, maintaining the clearance on the bottom of the unit required for low-frequency sound to freely radiate into the room. Do not place objects next to the MT2 that will block this space...on any side...as this can also adversely affect low-frequency performance. The MT2 has two rear bass ports that enhance low frequency sounds. These ports should remain unobstructed with a clearance of at least three inches to a back wall to assure proper performance.Cabinet Depth17" minimumTV pedestal should notbe larger than the top of the MT2(W 28" x D 16")TV Pedestal MaxTVCABINET DEPTHThe cabinet top should be at least seventeen inches deep to properly support the MT2. The MT2 is sixteen and a half inches deep (with grille attached) and extra space will be required between the MT2 and a wall behind the cabinet for cables connecting the MT2 to the TV or other A/V sources (3 inches minimum).PEDESTAL DIMENSIONSThe TV pedestal should not be larger than the top of the MT2 (W 28" x D 16"). A TV with a pedestal larger than the MT2 top will not be properly supported. Place a TV with a pedestal larger than 28" x 16" directly on the cabinet and locate the MT2 on a shelf below the TV.OPTIC ALINPUTCOAXIALINPUTCOAXIALOUTPUTOPTICALOUTPUT AUDIOOUTPUTTV/Source Audio OutputsMaxTV Audio InputsDigital Coaxial Audio CableTV/SourceCoaxial OUTPUTMaxTVCoaxial INPUT4005723OPTICALINPUTCOAXIALINPUTCOAXIALOUTPUTOPTICALOUTPUT AUDIOOUTPUTTV/Source Audio OutputsMaxTV Audio InputsDigital Optical Audio CableTV/SourceOptical OUTPUTMaxTVOptical INPUT4005723OPTIC ALINPUTCOAXIALINPUTCOAXIALOUTPUTOPTICALOUTPUT AUDIOOUTPUTTV/Source Audio OutputsMaxTV Audio InputsStereo RCA Patch CableTV/SourceL&R Audio OUTPUTSMaxTVL&R Audio INPUTS4005723HARDWIRED AUDIO CONNECTIONSMaxTV MT2 has three hardwired Audio Input connections on the rear panel that can be used for TV audio or connection to other sources such as CD player, a portable music player (that does not have bluetooth), a computer or any audio source with one of the following output connections.
