Questions and answers
I have wired the MX 100 according to instructions and it plays fine. Trying to do a 'set-up' to fine tune things using a web browser. Entered speaker size/locations and pressed check tone for each speaker, which always plays from right front speaker not the others. Will get help from my dealer and don't really expect you to know without seeing the equipment but (just in case you have any suggestions) thought I would ask.
The McIntosh MX100 plays the check tone through the selected speaker type in the Levels dropdown box when Test Tone is set to On. If the right front speaker is selected, the tone will only play from that speaker.
