Feature Overview

Designed to be a comprehensive, ultimate audio center for your home, the MCX-2000 incorporates a wide variety of features and functions. Here, we’ll take a look at some of ways you can use these features.

Audio Playback Functions

The MCX-2000 lets you play a wide variety of audio sources, including commercial music CDs, your own original MP3 CDs (CD-ROM), external audio signals, and radio programs from the built-in FM tuner. You can also listen to audio content stored on your Windows computer if you connect the MCX-2000 to your computer network (LAN). Since the MCX-2000 can access the Internet through your computer network, you can even enjoy music from your favorite Internet radio stations. When you play these audio sources on the main MCX-2000 itself, connect a speaker system (power ampliﬁer and speakers, or powered speakers) to the unit.
