1. HDMI Video Outputs
HDMI Output #1 is the main video output, and supports ARC (Audio Return Channel) and
commercial 4k UHD video signals. HDMI Output #2 allows you to connect a secondary HDMI
video display.
2. HDMI Video Inputs
The MC-700 allows you to connect up to six HDMI video source devices. HDMI Input #1 through
HDMI Input #3 should be used for commercial 4k UHD and 4k UHD HDR video sources like
4k Blu-Ray players and satellite boxes; HDMI Input #4 through HDMI Input #6 should be used for

operate, and the MC-700 cannot be turned On from the front panel or with the remote control.
4. Balanced Subwoofer Output
The balanced and unbalanced subwoofer outputs on the MC-700 both carry the same LFE signal.
If your subwoofer has both types of inputs, we recommend the balanced connection, which has
better immunity to hum and noise - especially if you have very long cables.
5. 7.1 Channel Analog Outputs
These are the main audio outputs on the BasX MC-700. Connect them to the unbalanced analog
audio inputs on your power amp or power amps and the input on your powered subwoofer.
Page 10
BasX MC-700 Surround Sound Processor
The channels are:
LF - Left Front
RF - Right Front
C - Center
LS - Left Surround
RS - Right Surround
SW - Subwoofer
LBS - Left Back Surround
RBS - Right Back Surround
Note: If you have a 5.1 channel system, then you should use the LF, RF, C, RS, LS, and SW
outputs. The LBS and RBS are not used in a 5.1 channel system. (Even if your surround speakers
are located in the back of the room, in a 5.1 channel system they are considered to be Surround
speakers and NOT Back Surround speakers.)
6. Microphone Input (For EmoQ Automatic Room Correction)
Connect the provided calibrated microphone to this input when you are preparing to run the
EmoQ Automatic Room Correction feature in the MC-700. You should always use the calibrated
microphone provided with the MC-700. If you use a different microphone it may produce unusual
results, or even damage your microphone or the MC-700.
Note: You should connect the microphone before starting EmoQ. You do not need to leave the
microphone connected except when you’re planning to run EmoQ.
7. Stereo Analog Inputs
Use these inputs to connect your analog stereo sources. They might be used to connect the
output of a phono preamp or tuner, or you could connect the analog output of a phone or music
player to one of these inputs with the appropriate adapter cable.
8. Digital Audio Inputs
Use these inputs to connect a digital audio source. The MC-700 includes one electrical S/PDIF
(Coax) input and one optical S/PDIF (Toslink) input. These inputs accept stereo audio at sample
rates up to 24/192k and low bandwidth digital surround sound formats like Dolby Digital and DTS
Digital Surround.
The third input is for the optional Bluetooth module, which will allow the MC-700 to play wireless
audio sent from your phone or other Bluetooth-enabled source.
9. USB Update Inputs
These two inputs are reserved for installing updates and future enhancements on the MC-700.
Page 11
BasX MC-700 Surround Sound Processor
10. IR Remote Input and IR Remote Output

connect an external IR signal transmitter (sometimes referred to as a flasher).
11. RS-232 Serial Remote Control Input
This input accepts control signals from an RS-232 Serial remote control device.
12. Trigger Output
A 12 VDC signal is sent from the Trigger Output of the MC-700 to turn on other devices when the
MC-700 is turned on. This signal can be used to turn on other trigger-enabled audio equipment -
such as a power amplifier.
13. Fuse Holder
To change the fuse in your MC-700, remove the power cable, then gently pry the fuse
compartment open. (The fuse holder opens like a drawer.) Replace the fuse with one of the
correct value, replace the fuse drawer, and reinsert the power cable.
Note: If the fuse in your MC-700 blows repeatedly without apparent reason, then you might
have an electrical fault, and you should call Emotiva Technical Support for assistance.
14. IEC Power Cable Receptacle
The IEC Power Cable receptacle accepts any standard IEC power cable. A high quality commercial
power cable is provided with your MC-700.

BasX MC-700 Surround Sound Processor
BasX MC-700 VFD Display And Menu System
The BasX MC-700 has a large, bright, easy to read VFD (vacuum fluorescent display) which
keeps you informed of the current status at all times, and an On Screen Display that pops up
and displays information on your TV screen whenever the status of the MC-700 changes. Both
the information that appears on the front panel VFD, and the information that appears on the
OSD, can be configured to suit your personal preferences. The current Volume setting is always
displayed on the VFD and, by default, is shown in the OSD for several seconds whenever the
Volume is changed.
When the MC-700 is turned on, it always returns to same Input and Volume setting as when it was
turned off. If you turn the MC-700 off while it is in the Setup Menu, when you turn it on it will start
up in normal operating mode.
When you turn the MC-700 on, the display will show a welcome message, then the name of the
Input that’s selected and the current Volume setting.
The Menu System and command structure were engineered to allow you easy and logical access
to the many powerful configuration features on the MC-700.
To enter the Menu System using the front panel controls, press the Center Navigation Button.
To enter the Menu System using the remote control, press the Menu Button.
The menu is comprised of a series of columns. The Left Arrow and Right Arrow buttons on the
remote control and the front panel move you across the columns. The Up Arrow and Down Arrow
Buttons move you vertically between selections. When you are already at the left-most column,
pressing the Left Arrow button again will take you up one menu level. If you’re in the top row of
the Main Menu, once you reach the left-most column, pressing the Left Arrow Button again exits
the menu.
The Menu System in the MC-700 was carefully designed to be intuitive and easy to use. However,
because there are a significant number of configuration options, and the front panel VFD only has
room for a limited amount of text, we suggest you use the On Screen Display until you become
familiar with the menu options that the MC-700 offers.

The Midnight Mode and decoder parameters on the second page of the menu are configured the
same way. Use the Right Arrow Button to move the cursor to the configuration field, choose the
option you want using the Up and Down Arrow Buttons, then return to the Parameter Menu using
the Left Arrow Button.
Press the Left Arrow Button to return to the Parameter Menu.
Press the Left Arrow Button again to return to the Main Menu.
Pressing the Left Arrow Button a third time will exit the Main Menu.
The MC-700 will Exit the Menu System automatically if no button is pressed for several seconds.
The Setup Menu
The Setup Menu allows to configure exactly how the MC-700 operates to suit your personal
preferences.
From the Main Menu, use the Right Arrow Button to move the cursor to the Setup Menu option,
then press the Down Arrow Button to enter the Setup Menu.
Several of the choices in the Setup Menu have additional options and sub-options. When you
wish to change the setting for an option, use the Right Arrow to move to the option field, use the
Up and Down Arrow Buttons to change the option value, then use the Left Arrow Button to return
to the previous field (there is no need to use the Enter Button unless instructed to).
Input Config - allows you to configure several options independently for each Input.
For each input you can:
- configure whether the input is Enabled
- configure what audio source is associated with that input
- change the friendly name of the input
- change the Lip Synch setting for that input
- set an individual gain adjustment for that input
- set whether the Trigger Output is activated when that input is selected
Mode Setup - allows you to configure what surround sound mode the MC-700 uses for each
possible type of input signal.
Speaker Setup - allows you to configure the size and crossover parameters for each of your
speakers, and the distance from each of your speakers to your main listening position.
AutoRoom / EQ - allows you to run EmoQ Advanced Automatic Room Correction, and access the
three banks of manual Parametric Equalizer presets in the MC-700.
The MC-700 has four independent groups of EQ settings:
- Manual EQ1, Manual EQ2, and Manual EQ3 contain settings that you enter using the
manual parametric equalizer controls.
- Emo_Q contains the settings created and stored by the EmoQ Automatic Room
Correction system.
Page 19
BasX MC-700 Surround Sound Processor
To select which group of settings to make active, press the Right Arrow Button to move the cursor
to the second column of the display.
Use the Up and Down Arrow Buttons to highlight the EQ bank you wish to select.
Press the Enter Button on the remote control or the Center Navigation Button on the MC-700
front panel to select that option and make it active.
To CONFIGURE any of the Manual EQ banks, first highlight it, then press the Right Arrow Button to
enter the Manual EQ Configuration screen. On this screen you will be able to configure the center
frequency, level, and Q (sharpness) for each of the 11 parametric EQ bands.
Note: If the Manual EQ group you wish to configure is already selected, you will enter the
configuration screen the first time you press the Right Arrow Button. If the Manual EQ group
you choose to configure is not currently selected, it will become selected the first time you
press the Right Arrow Button, and the second time you press the button you will enter the
configuration screen.
You may also manually adjust the configuration settings in the EmoQ EQ bank in the same way
you configure the manual EQ banks.
Note: While you may adjust the values in the EmoQ EQ bank, the values displayed do
not represent the entire range of corrections introduced by EmoQ. Therefore, while your
adjustments will MODIFY the adjustment made by EmoQ as you expect, setting all bands back
to zero is not equivalent to a totally flat setting in one of the Manual EQ groups.
Note: Any manual adjustments you make to the EmoQ group will be overwritten the next time
you run EmoQ.
Option - provides access to several general operating parameters, including the appearance of
the On Screen Display and what information is displayed, the HDMI CEC options, and the Volume
Mode and Standby Video modes used by the MC-700.
Version - displays the version of the firmware installed on your MC-700.
Load Default - resets the MC-700 to factory default settings.

Automatic Room Correction and Loudspeaker Calibration
EmoQ sends a series of test signals through your speakers, measures the results with the
(included) calibrated microphone, and configures the MC-700 to make your system sound its
best. Even though the actual operation of EmoQ is very sophisticated, it is very simple to use, and
will deliver excellent results without manual tweaking in most situations. (EmoQ also allows you
to fine tune the settings and calibration curves it generates after you run it, and to create your
own manual calibration settings as well. You should also bear in mind that the choices EmoQ
makes may not agree with your musical tastes; if so, then you should always go with what you
prefer, and adjust your EQ settings accordingly.)
1) Unpack your calibration microphone, unwind the wire, and plug it into the Microphone jack on
the rear panel of the MC-700. (The MC-700 is calibrated for this particular microphone, so don’t
use a different one.)
WARNING: The calibration microphone supplied with the MC-700 includes its own high quality
buffer amplifier to eliminate noise and interference. The microphone jack on the MC-700
provides power for this microphone. If you attempt to use a different microphone with your
MC-700, you may damage the microphone or the MC-700.
2) Place the microphone in your listening location. While EmoQ will do its best to optimize the
sound for your entire room, the calibration curve and settings it generates will still be the most
precise at the position where the microphone was positioned when the calibration was carried
out. The microphone should be placed where your head is normally located.
Here are some tips for best results:
•
The test will take several minutes, and some of the test tones may be loud, so you might want
to take pets or children out of the room.
•
Position the microphone close to where your head or ears normally are (on top of the back
seat cushion of your favorite chair or couch or, ideally, attached to a stand or tripod).
•
•
The microphone is normally positioned with the point up (and the flat base down).
Do not place the microphone in a location where it is blocked from a direct line-of-sight to
any speaker (like on a chair seat). If the microphone cannot “hear”a particular speaker, EmoQ
will raise the level of that speaker so it presents a balanced sound at the position of the
microphone, which will probably result in that speaker being too loud for everyone else.
•
•
Try to avoid flat reflective surfaces. If you must place the microphone on a table or other
reflective surface, place a towel or blanket under it to minimize reflections.
Turn off any air conditioners or other gadgets that make noise, and avoid talking or making
noise during the test. Also turn off or remove from the area any telephones that are likely to
ring. If you live in a high traffic area, or have noisy neighbors, or children, for best results wait
for a quiet time of day to run EmoQ. (If anything makes noise during the test, it will alter the
results, and you’ll have to run EmoQ over again for best results.)
Page 21
BasX MC-700 Surround Sound Processor
•
•
Avoid moving around the room during the test. It is best if you pick a spot to stand or sit while
the test is running that does not block or change the sound field. The best place is in the rear
of the room towards the center of the wall. Avoid walking near the microphone during the
test (even if you do not block any speakers) because reflections from your body will interfere
with the accuracy of the results. And, of course, avoid making noise during the test.
If you rearrange your furniture, move your speakers, or add or remove reflective or sound
absorbing wall hangings (like big pictures or tapestries), you should re-run EmoQ for best
results.
•
•
If you purchase new speakers, or change adjustments on your speakers or other equipment
(like the level controls on your tweeters or amps), you should run EmoQ again.
EmoQ is quite powerful, but you will still get the best results if you start out with a good
room layout and good speakers. At a minimum, try to position speakers as symmetrically as
possible from left to right relative to the listening position. (Left and right speakers of each
set should be about the same distance to the sides of the listening position; the center should
be as near the center as possible. Perfect symmetry may not be possible in your listening
room, but the closer you get, the better your results will be.)
•
In general, highly reflective rooms are not optimum in terms of sound quality, and even EmoQ
may not be able to completely correct for the acoustic properties of an overly “live”room.
3) Run EmoQ.
To run EmoQ, select EMO_Q CALIBRATE from the Autoroom EQ sub-menu on the Setup Menu
and press the Right Arrow Button to start the calibration process. You will see a massage that
the calibration process is starting, hear a single test tone, and then see a reminder to be quiet
during the remainder of the test, and a note that you can press OK to continue. You may press the
Center Button or the Right Arrow Button to continue; the test will continue on its own after a few
seconds if you don’t press a button.
EmoQ will now play a series of test tones to determine whether each speaker is present and
its acoustic distance from your listening position (the microphone). Once the sequence of
test tones has completed, you will be presented with a screen showing the results of the initial
measurements. This screen will list the distance between the microphone and each speaker that
EmoQ has detected. You will be prompted to press OK to continue. You may press the Center
Button to continue immediately
Note: EmoQ measures the acoustic distance from your listening position to each speaker based
on the amount of time it takes sound from each speaker to reach the test microphone. Because
the system is measuring time delay rather than physical distances, these distances may vary
slightly from what you might measure with a tape measure.
When the test continues, EmoQ will play a series of test tones through each of your speakers
to measure its frequency response. EmoQ will only test the speakers that it has detected in the
previous portion of the test. Depending on how many speakers you have, this portion of the test
may take several minutes.
Page 22
BasX MC-700 Surround Sound Processor
After this series of test tones are done, EmoQ will present you with another screen of information.
This time you will be prompted to SAVE the information by pressing OK. Press the Center Button
to save the measurements and corrections calculated by EmoQ. (You may also review the
measurements for each speaker by using the Right Arrow Button to cycle between them). When
you save the settings you will be taken back to the Setup Menu. The EmoQ EQ settings should
already be set as your default choice.
You will be able to go back later and change your choice, and to manually adjust the settings
made by EmoQ if you prefer. You may also create up to three full sets of custom manual EQ setting
and choose between them. To make your new EmoQ settings active, and apply them to your
inputs, you must select EmoQ as the active EQ choice.
Note: Moving the selector to an EQ choice that isn’t highlighted (red) and pressing Enter selects
that choice (and it turns red). At this point (if you have an active input which is subject to EQ)
you will be able to preview what that choice sounds like. Moving the blue selector bar to an EQ
choice that is already highlighted (red), and pressing the Right Arrow Button, takes you into a
sub-menu where you can make detailed adjustments to the selected EQ configuration. (If you
get into this screen by mistake, and want to get out without changing anything, you can do so
by pressing the Left Arrow Button.)
Note: You may feel free to adjust the settings stored in the EmoQ EQ bank to suit your personal
preferences. However, when you run EmoQ, extra information which is not visible is stored in
the EmoQ EQ bank. Because of this extra information, while you may copy the settings from the
EmoQ EQ bank to one of the Manual EQ banks, the results may not be identical to the original
EmoQ settings.
Note: If you have Direct Mode selected, you will NOT be able to preview the EQ settings
(because EQ is not applied in Direct Mode). It is therefore a good idea to make sure that you are
listening to an input and mode in which EQ is applied if you want to preview your settings. (If
you haven’t done any advanced configuration, HDMI 1 or HDMI 2 will probably work well for
this.)
Note: If you run EmoQ multiple times, you will get similar results (but probably not identical).
You will not get more accurate results by running EmoQ repeatedly (it does not save or average
results from multiple runs). If you are not entirely satisfied with the results, try moving the
microphone to a slightly different position, or simply adjust the results manually to fit your
tastes.
Note: EmoQ is very sophisticated, but not totally foolproof. Unusual room acoustics,
reflections, or unusual speakers, can cause it to get incorrect results. If you are not satisfied
with the results you get when running EmoQ, we suggest you try a slightly different
microphone location. (Moving the microphone forward or backwards, while keeping it in the
left-right center of the room, will often produce better results.)
Page 23
BasX MC-700 Surround Sound Processor
Notes (about setting subwoofers):
Since EmoQ is controlling the bass management for your subwoofer, it is usually optimum to
set your sub itself to “flat”.
If your subwoofer has a phase setting, you should set it to “0 degrees” or “normal” (and not
“inverted).
If your sub has a built-in crossover that cannot be disabled, then set it to the highest allowed
crossover point.
If your sub has a level control, setting it to a center position, or to “0 dB”, is a good place to start.
If your subwoofer has special features for eliminating room nodes, or if you are using bass
traps or other advanced room correction devices, these adjustments should usually be made
BEFORE running EmoQ for best results.

Care and Maintenance
Periodic Maintenance
Your BasX MC-700 requires no periodic maintenance or calibration.
Cleaning your MC-700
•
•
If necessary, the MC-700 should be cleaned gently with a soft rag.
If something sticky gets on the front panel or case of the MC-700, it should be cleaned
with a mild cleaning solution applied to a soft cloth, followed by wiping with a clean cloth
dampened with plain water and drying with a soft dry rag or cloth.
Note: DO NOT spray water or cleaning solution directly onto the front or rear panel of the
MC-700.
Installing Firmware Updates
From time to time Emotiva may issue firmware updates for your MC-700. We strongly recommend
that you only install firmware that was downloaded from the official Emotiva website, or that you
received from Emotiva Technical Support staff.
To install a firmware update on your MC-700:
1) Download the firmware file from our website or the link or e-mail attachment provided by our
Technical Support representative.
2) Place the firmware update file on a USB stick formatted with the Fat32 operating system
(any commercial USB stick formatted to work on both Apple and Windows computers should
work fine). Place the file into the main or root directory of the stick.
Note: If the firmware update is provided in the form of an archive, such as a Zip file, extract the
firmware update file from the archive onto the stick.
3) Turn off your MC-700 (using the Power Switch on the rear panel).
4) Insert the USB stick with the firmware update file into the USB port on the MC-700 rear panel
labelled USB Update.
5) Switch the MC-700 On (using the Power Switch on the rear panel).
6) When the front panel Power / Standby button stops blinking, press it to tun the MC-700 On.
6) Your MC-700 will automatically detect and install the firmware update.
7) Once the firmware update is complete, the MC-700 will notify you, and then start normally.
8) Turn the MC-700 Off and remove the USB stick.
9) We strongly recommend resetting your MC-700 (Load Default from the Setup Menu) after
performing a firmware update. Note that this will clear all configuration settings.
