FM (MX level 1 to 3):

The medium to high frequencies become clearer, and produces well balanced sound at all frequencies.

CD /WAV (MX level 1 to 3):

CD mode processes a large amount of data during playback. MX takes advantage of this large data quantity to reproduce a more clear, clean output.

MP3/WMA/XM (MX level 1 to 3):

This corrects information that was lost at the time of compression. This reproduces a well-balanced sound close to the original.

DVD (Video CD) (MOVIE MX level 1 to 2):

The dialog portion of a video is reproduced more clearly.

(MUSIC MX level 1):

A DVD or Video CD contains a large quantity of data such as music clip. MX uses this data to reproduce the sound accurately.

Choose the MX mode (MP3, MUSIC, or MOVIE) that corresponds to the media connected.

If two external devices are connected, a different MX mode for each media can be selected.

Each music source, such as FM radio, CD, and MP3/WMA can have its own MX setting.

On disks with both MP3/WMA and CD-DA, when the source changes from “MP3/WMA to CD-DA” or “CD-DA to MP3/WMA,” MX-mode switching may delay playback slightly.

Setting to MX OFF sets MX mode of each music source to OFF.

This function is inoperable when DEFEAT is set to ON.

There is no MX mode for AM radio.

If an audio processor with the MX function (PXA-H700, etc.) is connected, its own MX processing is applied to the music source. Since the processor MX settings may not match the head unit, the audio processor needs to be adjusted. For details, refer to the Owner’s Manual of the audio processor.
