8. VIDEO
Use these inputs for the audio signals from accessories such as a Laser Disc Player. VCR,
or TV receiver.
Connect a cable from the left channel audio output of the video unit to the MA6400 L (Left)
channel VIDEO INPUT. Connect a cable from the right channel audio output of the video unit
to the MA6400 R (Right) VIDEO INPUT.
Use the VIDEO input when an optional MVS-3 Audio/Video Selector is added to the MA6400.
This allows you to switch up to five Audio/Video signal sources and a TV monitor connected to
the MVS-3. The MVS-3 must also be connected to the MA6400 VIDEO DATA PORT.
9. TUNER
Connect cables from the left and right channel outputs of a tuner to the MA6400 L (Left) and
R (Right) TUNER INPUTS. A Mclntosh MR7084 can be connected to the MA6400 and operated
by the MA6400 Remote Controller. This feature requires a Data cable to be connected from the
MA6400 TUNER DATA port to the MR7084 DATA IN port.
(A Data cable consists of a single conductor shielded wire with 1/8 inch mini phone plugs on
each end. Connections are to the Tip (+) and sleeve (-) of the plug. Mclntosh Part No. 170-202.)
10. CD1 and CD2
Connect a cable from the left channel output of a CD player to the MA6400, L (Left) CD1
INPUT. Connect a cable from the right channel output to the MA6400, R (Right) CD1 INPUT.
Connect a second CD player to the MA6400 CD2 inputs in a similar manner.

a CD changer.
Connect a Mclntosh CD Control Cable between a Mclntosh CD unit and the MA6400 CD1
CONTROL connector. This allows a Mclntosh CD player or changer connected to CD1
Inputs to be operated by the MA6400 Hand Held Remote Controller.
