MN596 Active Stereo Booth Monitor
Overview. The MN596 6-channel Stereo booth monitor is unique in that it plays 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.The monitor contains two 10Watt power
amplifiersandtwowiderangeloundspeakers,andaccepts6-channelsignalsfromeitherbi-

Listening Modes. The right knob controls listening mode. When set toAMP 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 channel monitored in theAMPLIFIER and PRO-
CESSORlistening modes. STANDBYmode disconnects all monitoring signals,but does not
powerdown the system.
