tions in Area "B". Area "B" must have its own dedicated power amplifier and speakers.
All coaxial connections use either RG59U or RG6 coaxial cable. Up to four Keypads
or Sensors can be connected in parallel on each coaxial cable.
32. TUNER CONTROL
Connect a Mcintosh Model W102 Tuner Control cable from the TUNER CONTROL connec-
tor to a connector on a compatible Mcintosh tuner. This allows you to select and control tuner
operating functions with the C39 hand held remote controller transmitting to a C39 sensor.
33. VIDEO INPUTS (SAT, TV, LV, VCR1, VCR2, and V-AUX, (S or Standard)
Connect coaxial cables from the video outputs of six separate video accessories to the
approprite video inputs. These six video inputs can be selected by either the LISTEN, Area
"A" switch, or the RECORD, Area "B" switch. The corresponding audio signals are also
selected simultaneously.
34. CD1/CD2 CONTROL
Connect a Mcintosh Model W101 CD Control cable from the CD1 or CD2 CONTROL socket
to a matching connector socket on a Mcintosh CD player or changer. This allows you to con-
trol CD player functions with the C39 hand held remote controller transmitting to a C39 sen-
sor. You could use CD1 for a single play CD player and CD2 for a CD changer.
35. TO MULTI-ROOM CONTROLLER
Connect a 25 conductor shielded subminiature "D" male-to-male computer type cable from
the C39 TO MULTI-ROOM CONNECTOR to the matching connector on a Mcintosh CR10
Remote Control System. With a CR10 connected, as many as four additional remote areas
can be controlled. CD2, TUNER, TAPE 1, TAPE 2 and PH/AUX can be used by the CR10. All
audio signals selected by the C39 LISTEN, Area "A" Selector Switch, are fed to the VIDEO
inputs on the CR10.
A Home Theater combines the newest high fidelity surround sound audio concepts with
the high quality video reproduction of the latest big screen TV sets and monitors. All the ex-
citement of the special audio and video effects of today's action movies are now possible
in your own home using a laser video disc player or VCR as a source.
All movies produced by major film companies have Dolby Stereo sound tracks. When they
reach you via home video sources, the Dolby Surround encoding remains intact. Dolby Pro
Logic relies on the same decoding technology as the professional cinema processors to
decode the movie soundtracks that are found on video. The decoding process results in four
separate soundtracks which are Left Front, Center, Right Front, and Surround. The Dolby Pro
Logic decoded surround signals are monaural, but are reproduced by a non-directional
loudspeaker on each side of the listening area to help diffuse the sound. The Dolby Surround
concept is the heart of the Home Theater audio and video experience.
Lucasfilm Ltd. has developed a process for enhancing the reproduction of Dolby Surround
sound tracks by adding additional signal processing to all the decoded sound tracks. This
process is called Home THX Audio.

tronics and loudspeakers should be set up as closely as possible to the recommended
