Introducon

The MB20 functions as a Bluetooth receiver or as a

Bluetooth Transmitter. The MB20 has been designed to

provide a superior Bluetooth connection to equipment

that lacks Bluetooth connectivity. The MB20 is a Class 1

Bluetooth device with a transmission range ten times that

of a typical Class 2 Bluetooth device (such as most cell

phones.) As a receiver, the MB20 employs an extremely

sensitive receiver for better reception even from Class 2

devices.

Class 1 Bluetooth transmission has a range up to ten

times that of Class 2 devices. Class 1 operation can

typically be 150 feet (45.7 meters) in ideal conditions

with mobile devices. Actual range of Bluetooth Class 1

technology may be aected by physical obstacles as well

as the performance of devices with which the MB20 is

intended to connect, particularly Class 2 devices. Think

of this measure as a point of comparison since the world

is not always ideal. As a receiver, the maximum range is

determined by the capabilities of both paired devices.

Internal sampling and bit shifting, which can be thought

of as sophisticated up-sampling, will enable all digital

processing to occur and the highest available speed and

resolution. The MB20’s internal DAC processing at 192

kHz is the gentlest way of ltering the audio signal. The

digital output will be at 96 kHz for wider compatibility

with other DACs.

Bluetooth Transmit and Receive support aptX HD for

improved sound quality. Plus aptXTM Low Latency audio

improves end-to-end speed of audio transmission to keep

the sound in sync with the screen. Using two MB20, one

as a receiver and the other as a transmitter, provides full

wireless aptX HD code and decode bridge.

Receiver or Transmier

The MB20 can be either a Receiver (RX) or Transmitter

(TX). It can switch between these two modes, but it can

only be one of these at a time.

Set the MB20 to the desired mode, either RX or TX, by

pushing the RX/TX Button located on the rear of the

unit. See Figure 1. When the RX/TX Button is depressed

(pushed in), the MB20 is in Receive Mode. When the

Power the MB20

Use the supplied AC/DC adapter with the

included USB cable to power the MB20. You

may be tempted to plug the USB cable into a

computer. This will not supply enough power for

the MB20 to function properly.

The DC input labeled DC 5V IN can be found

next to the antenna connection in “Figure 3–

MB20 Rear View” on page 7.

To allow the MB20 to properly reset when

powering o and on, please allow 5 to 10 seconds

between removing and re-inserting the power

cord.

Aach the Antenna

Attach the included Bluetooth Antenna to the ANT

Connection in the center of the rear panel of the MB20.

(See Figure 3 on page 7.) Tighten the brass nut at the

base of the Antenna until nger tight.

Transmier Mode

In the Transmitter Mode (TX), the MB20 will take a

signal from one of the inputs:

• Analog Balanced (XLR)

• Analog Unbalanced (RCA)

• Digital Coax

• Digital Optical

and send (transmit) the signal to a Bluetooth connected

device.

The Front Panel Button will glow Green in Transmitter

Mode.

To Power On, press and hold the Front Panel Button for

two seconds. The MB20 will automatically search for

the last paired device. After one minute, the MB20 enters

Discovery Mode. It will stay in Discovery Mode for 15

minutes.

The MB20 will pair a previously paired device while in

Discovery Mode or pair with a new device that is also in

Discovery Mode.

After 15 minutes in Discovery Mode, if no pairing

occurs, the MB20 will power o.

If the MB20 has not been previously paired (or the

pairing list has been erased), the unit will more quickly

(10 seconds) enter Discovery Mode.

Discovery Mode is indicated by a the Front Panel Button

ashing green (single blink on and o).

Since you may not be able to see a list of discoverable

Bluetooth Devices to choose from on the device you are

trying to connect to the MB20, it is helpful to not have

any other discoverable devices competing with the MB20

when trying to pair. The process of pairing will happen

automatically.

When the MB20 pairs with another device, the Front

Panel Button will be solid green (no longer blinking).

When connected, the MB20 will send input to the paired

device via Bluetooth.

When powered on, the MB20 will attempt to pair with

the last paired device for one minute. If that device is

unavailable, the MB20 will enter Discovery Mode.

Should the MB20 experience a brief power interruption

during operation, conrm that all volume settings are

as expected before using connected devices such as

headphones.

Low Latency/High Denition Preference Button sets

a preference for either Low Latency or High Denition

connections when the MB20 is in Transmitter mode.

Since a receiver (such as a speaker) may not support both

protocols, the MB20 will use the available protocol. If

both protocols are available on the receiver this button

will set the preference of which to use,

Low Latency may be a desirable preference for video

viewing to better sync video and audio.

Receiver Mode

In the Receiver Mode (RX), the MB20 will send a

received Bluetooth signal to ALL these outputs:

• Analog Balanced (XLR)

• Analog Unbalanced (RCA)

• Digital Coax

• Digital Optical

The Front Panel Button will glow Blue in Receiver

Mode.

To pair the MB20 to receive from your device:

• RX/TX Button should be in the receive (RX)

position (depressed)

• Power On the MB20. Front Panel Button will

glow blue. It will begin to blink (single blink on

and o) when in pairing mode

• On the device you wish to connect to the MB20,

scan for Available Devices. The MB20 will be

listed as “MB20”

• Choose MB20. If asked “Pair with MB20?”,

choose OK

• MB20 should be connected for Audio. When

successfully paired the Front Panel Button will

display as solid blue. Unsuccessful pairing will

display as solid white

You can use the Bluetooth menu of your connected

device to connect and disconnect the MB20.

Clearing and Reseng

To reset the MB20 and clear the pairing list:

• Press and hold the Front Panel Button for 10

seconds

• The LED of the Front Panel Button will blink,

pause and then double blink when reset. Release

the Button

• Pull out DC USB Power Connector from the

rear of MB20 for 10 seconds and then replace

Packing the MB20

When shipping the MB20, it is highly recommended that

the unit be packed as it was originally shipped to avoid

damage. For this reason, you may wish to save the original

box and packing material for your MB20. If you need

any of the packing material, you can contact McIntosh

Customer Service. Use only packing material that is in

good condition and replace any material that has seen

better days.
