MAKING IN-WALL CONNECTIONS
Method 4
Using the MCX-CA15 as a stand-alone amplifier
Use this configuration method if you want to use the MCX-CA15 as an amplifier for a system other than the
MusicCAST system and the MCX-CA15 is set for the zone setting on your amplifier or receiver. This
configuration also allows you to enjoy audio from external components connected to the MCX-CA15.
If you want to automatically detect input signals using the input level sensing function
switch on the inside front panel of the MCX-CA15 to "B".
If you do not want to use the input level sensing function
of the MCX-CA15 to "C".

For details on the input level sensing function, see the MCX-CA15 Owner's Manual, page 11.
