User manual LEXICON MV-5

[. . . ] Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus. [. . . ] DTS 96/24 is available on specially-encoded (and labeled) optical discs that offer five channels of audio with a 96kHz sampling rate that delivers greatly improved audio performance. When a DTS 96/24 disc is in use and the player is connected with a digital link, the mode is selected automatically. The Hall modes, for both 5-channel and 7-channel systems, create sound fields that resemble a small-(Hall 1) or medium-sized (Hall 2) concert hall. This mode takes advantage of multiple speakers to place a stereo signal at both the front and back of a room. Ideal for playing music in situations such as a party, it places the same signal at the front-left and surround-left, and front-right and surround-right speakers. The center channel is fed a summed mono mix of the in-phase material of the left and right channels. If the MV-5 has been configured for 6. 1-/7. 1-channel operation, both of these options are available for selection. If the MV-5 has been configured for 5. 1-channel operation, only the 5-Channel Stereo option is available. This mode turns off all surround processing and presents pure left- and right-channel stereo programs. The bass management processing that routes low frequencies to the subwoofers is still active. This mode turns off all surround processing and present pure left- and right-channel stereo programs. The bass management processing that routes low frequencies to the subwoofers is still active. This mode does not allow any user modification of the audio, such as Bass or Treble adjustments. Note: This mode is only available when the Tone Controls are set to OFF. DTS Neo:6 DTS 96/24 Hall 1 & Hall 2 5-Channel Stereo 7-Channel Stereo 2-Channel Stereo 2-Channel Stereo Bypass 3-27 Setup 5. 1-CHANNEL & 7. 1-CHANNEL DIRECT INPUTS There are four listening modes available for use with surround sources such as DVD-Audio, SACD, HD-DVD, or Blue-ray players. These listening modes are for use when the MV-5 8-channel direct inputs are in use. We recommend you use these listening modes under the following conditions: · 5. 1 BYPASS - Use this listening mode when the Surround Back L/R inputs are NOT in use and the input source device has its own internal bass management system. The incoming audio stream passes from the source directly through to the volume control without any analog-to-digital conversion. This mode also mutes the unusued input jacks to prevent unwanted noise from interfering with system performance. 5-CHANNEL - Use this listening mode when the Surround Back L/R inputs are NOT in use and the input source device does NOT have its own internal bass management system. In this mode, the analog source is converted to digital so that it uses the same bass management options for the direct input as used for all other inputs. This mode also mutes the unusued input jacks to prevent unwanted noise from interfering with system performance. 7. 1 BYPASS - Use this listening mode when the 8-channel direct inputs are in use and the input source device has its own internal bass management system. [. . . ] The RF-1 Receiver accessory requires no setup to the Lexicon remote control in order for the feature to work - you need only place the RF-1 Receiver in the rack or cabinet, or attach an emitter to the MV-5 front panel over the IR receiver. Every time a command is sent from the remote control, it sends both a standard IR and an RF signal. The RF-1 Receiver automatically receives the remote's radio signals and translates them into the infrared commands that control the components. Note: The Lexicon remote control radio signals will not control components directly. [. . . ]
