JBL PROCOUSTICS MS-2 - Manual (Page 3)

controls and IndIcators
Power indicator: Lights green when the MS-2 is on; pulses red when
the MS-2 is in Standby mode. See Standby and On Modes, on page 5, for
more information.
Input indicator: Lights green when audio connectors are inserted and the
input signal level is OK; lights red when the output level of the connected
portable media player is too high. See Setup and Use, on this page, for
more information.
sub indicator: Lights green when you have set up the MS-2 for use in a
system with a subwoofer. See Using the MS-2 with a Powered Subwoofer,
on page 5.
treble control and indicators: Press the Treble control to increase
or decrease the level of the treble (such as high frequency sounds from
cymbals or the sound of the letter “S”). The indicators show the setting.
Impact control and indicators: Press the Impact control to add midbass
punch to the sound (such as the fullness of drums or the upper frequencies
of a bass guitar). The impact setting may also affect the sound of male
vocals. The indicators show the setting.
Bass control and indicators: Press the Bass control to boost the bass
(such as low-frequency sounds from bass guitar and bass drum). Two levels
of bass boost are available. The indicators show the setting.
Image control and indicators: For music to be accurately reproduced
and seem as though it comes from musicians spread out across the
dashboard instead of from only the speaker nearest you, the sound from the
left and right speakers must arrive at your ears at exactly the same time. To
achieve this, the MS-2 includes digital time correction (enabled in the Image
control’s “On” setting). If your car’s audio system already includes “DSP”
or surround sound processing, you should set the MS-2’s Image control
to “Off,” but you can choose the setting that sounds best to you. The
indicators show the setting.
defeat button: The Defeat button turns off all of the MS-2’s EQ,
processing and user settings, passing audio unchanged to the output. This
lets you compare the sound with and without the MS-2’s processing. When
Defeat is active, the Treble, Impact, Bass and Image indicators all turn off.
setuP and use
Until you perform a setup procedure, your MS-2 will pass the audio signal
unchanged from the connected device to your vehicle’s audio system. None
of the MS-2’s controls or processing will be active until you perform a setup
procedure.
NOTE: If you have added a subwoofer to your system, please see
Using the MS-2 with a Powered Subwoofer, on page 5, before
performing a setup procedure.
