ABOUT THE ON-SCREEN DISPLAY (OSD)
The M15 HD employs a simple, self-explanatory system of on-screen display
“menus” that will appear on the connected video monitor/TV. These are
required during the setup process (and are useful in day-to-day operation), so
be sure to connect the monitor/TV before proceeding with setup.
DISPLAY THE OSD
Press either or ENTER buttons of the HTRM remote control or front panel
to display the M15 HD’s Main Menu on your video monitor/TV. If the OSD
does not appear, check your MONITOR OUT connections.
NAVIGATING THE OSD AND MAKING CHANGES
To navigate through the OSD menu options, please do the following using
the HTRM or corresponding front panel buttons:
1
Press to select a menu item. Use
keys or in some cases, ENTER,
to move up or down the Menu selections. Repeatedly press to
advance or go further into sub-menus of a desired menu item.
2
Use
keys to set or change the parameter value (setting) of a menu
item.
3
Press to save the settings or changes done on the current menu or
sub-menu. Pressing will also return the user to the previous menu or
exit from a particular menu.
MAIN MENU
The Main Menu contains the menu options for ‘Listening Mode’, ‘DSP
Options’, ‘Tone Controls’, ‘Picture Controls’, ‘Zone Controls’ and access to
‘Setup Menu.’
To navigate through these Main Menu options and their sub-menu
selections, please refer to and follow the directions stated in the sections
‘Display the OSD’ and ‘Navigating the OSD and Making Changes.’
NOTE
The individual configurations set forth at ‘Listening Mode’, ‘DSP Options’,
‘Tone Controls’ and ‘Picture Controls’ are carried over whenever they are
enabled during A/V Preset setting. Please see the section ‘AV Presets’ for
reference.
LISTENING MODE
The M15 HD offers distinct listening modes, tailored for different types of
recording or program material. With a two-channel (Stereo) source, the
following listening modes can be selected:
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The M15 HD is an AV Surround Sound Preamplifier and therefore has
no speakers. The mention of “Speaker(s)” in this manual refers to the
speakers of your external amplifier as interfaced with the M15 HD.
STEREO
All output is directed to the front left/right channels. Low frequencies are
directed to the subwoofer if one is present in the Speaker settings. Select
‘Stereo’ when you wish to listen to a stereo (or monaural) production, such
as music CD or FM broadcast, without surround enhancement. Stereo
recordings whether in PCM/digital or analog form and whether surround-
encoded or not encoded, are reproduced as recorded. Multi-channel digital
recordings (Dolby Digital and DTS) are reproduced in “Stereo Downmix”
mode via the front left/right channels only as Lt/Rt (left/right-total) signals.
DIRECT
The analog or digital sources are automatically played in their native
formats. All the source’s audio channels are reproduced directly. This
mode recreates the original sound most faithfully thereby producing
outstandingly high quality audio.
PRO LOGIC
Two-channel recordings, whether stereo or surround-encoded, are
reproduced with Dolby Pro Logic surround processing, yielding output to
front left/right, center and discrete left/right surround channels (assuming
these are present in the current ‘Speaker Configuration’). The surround
channel is monophonic, but it is reproduced in both surround speakers.
