Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Klegg M6 501P Surround Sound Decoder. This versatile audio surround sound system has been precisely designed to bring you the most advanced surround modes including DTS, Dolby Digital & Dolby Pro Logic. This system will reproduce six discrete channels of encoded sound tracks with true fidelity and sonic excellence. The

M6 501P automatically detects the type of signal present at each input and decodes it based on the original encoded software. The M6 501P allows you to connect virtually any audio input source such as TV, VCR, CD-ROM, DVD Player, LD Player, Stereo Receiver, PC and

Game Consoles (Nintendo? , Sony PlayStation? , and SEGA? ). The Klegg M6 501P is a truly a dynamic multimedia theater center.

Important Safety Instructions

To ensure your safety, please read these instructions before operating this unit.

1. Note all instructions and warnings marked on the unit.

2. Always use the correct line voltage. Please refer to page 6 and locate the correct power requirement for your area. Please note that different operating voltages may require the use of different adapters.

3. Do not install the unit in an unventilated rack or directly above heat producing equipment such as power amplifiers.

4. Do not block the openings on either side of the case.

5. To avoid shock or fire hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture or operate it where it will be exposed to water.

6. Do not attempt to operate the unit if it has been dropped, damaged, exposed to liquids, or if it exhibits a distinct change in performance indicating the need for inspection.

7. Only qualified service personnel should open this unit.

8. Removing covers will expose you to hazardous voltages.

9. Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electrical shock.

10. Route power supply cords so that they are not likely to be trodden on or pinched by items placed on or against them, paying particular attention to plug fittings at the wall outlets and at the point at which they exit from the unit.

Installation

??

Turn off any electrical or computer device that you plan to connect to the M6 501P.

??

Carefully unpack the M6 501P and its accessories from the transit packaging.

??

Place the M6 501P on a flat, stable surface, preferably on a TV shelf or similar. Allow at least 10cm clear on all sides of the unit for ventilation.

??

Locate the M6 501P near your source equipment so you can use the shortest possible interconnect cables. Keep your M6 501P away from moisture sources such as open windows and heat sources such as hot air ducts or radiators. Also, keep the unit away from direct sunlight since it could interfere with the remote control sensor.

??

The M6 501P Surround Sound Decoder has been designed to be ultimately flexible accepting both digital and analog audio signals from CD Players, VCR, DVD players, TV monitor, Computer and Game Consoles (Nintendo N64, Sega Dream Cast, SONY

PlayStation II etc.)

??

The M6 501P can also be connected to an external amplifier, or the Klegg M6 501R

Amplified Home Theater Speaker System as detailed on page 9 and 10.

M6 501P Front Panel

1. The POWER Button

This button turns M6 501P ON or OFF.

2. The POWER Indicator

This LED lights up when you plug in DC-12V.

3. Speaker Configuration LEDs

Each LED represents the status of an individual channel. When a particular channel is active, the LED lights up. A RED LED light means this particular channel has been set to output a wide frequency range that contains bass signals between 20Hz to 120Hz. A

GREEN LED light means this particular channel does not contain the bass signal between 20Hz to 120Hz. When connecting to the Klegg M6 501R Home Theatre

Speaker System the Subwoofer channel should be the only RED LED. All other channels should be set to narrow frequency bandwidth and should display GREEN (see page 23).

4. Front Panel Display

This display provides you with important information regarding system status and settings. It is important to be familiar with all the indicators on the display in order to ensure correct operation of the system.

Connecting M6 501P (with the Klegg M6 501R Theater System)

10

1. After properly connecting M6 501P to your audio sources and amplifier, plug in M6

501P’s AC adapter to an AC outlet.

2. Activate the M6 501P power by pushing the POWER Button on the front panel. Then, turn on the power for all audio sources, amplifier, and/or powered subwoofer.

3. Having completed the installation, get ready to experience true Dolby Digital or DTS surround sound right in your living room.

Note:

When playing music or movies be sure to have the volume set low initially. Gradually turn

the volume up to an appropriate level after the playback has started.

EQ Band Settings for the Klegg M6 501R Home Theatre Speaker System

The M6 501P allows precise adjustment of equalizer band settings (see page 28). Since each speaker system has its own individual properties, you may wish to experiment with these settings to attain your desired output reproduction. If you are connecting the M6 501P to the

Klegg M6 501R Home Theatre Speaker System, you may wish to start with an EQ Setup as follows:

??

??

??

??

??

BAND 1: +8dB

BAND: 2 +9dB

BAND: 3 +7dB

BAND: 4 +8dB

BAND: 5 +9dB

These are settings are for general guidance only. The acoustics of your own living room and desired listening levels will mean your own set up will provide the best results.

M6 501P Operation – Delay Calibration

TV

The ideal listening position is defined below:

??

Center channel speaker should be placed in a position that has an equal distance as the left and right speakers to listener.

??

Surround left and surround right speakers should be placed behind the listener and above listener’s ear level.

??

If speaker placement is restricted due to the physical environment of the room, delay calibration maybe necessary to achieve the ideal listening environment.

??

If the center speaker only can be placed in a position that is closer to the listener than that of the left and right speakers, the sound from the center speaker will be out of synchronization with front left and front right. This difference in sound arrival time will negatively affect the quality of the home theatre experience, even on the best DVD titles.

??

Fortunately the M6 501P allows you to adjust the center speaker time delay to compensate for this problem by increasing the delay time for the center channel allowing sound from the center, left and right speakers reach the listener at the same time. If your center speaker is closer to the listening position than the left and right speakers, press the

DELAY Button repeatedly until the Center channel is reached. To increase or decrease the delay time press D TIME + or D TIME - until the required distance is matched.

??

The same procedure can be applied for adjusting the delay time of surround speakers if necessary.

Adjust the delay time on the selected channel by pressing D TIME + or D TIME - on the remote control.

Surround Speaker Delay

Delay calibration for the surround speakers is necessary when the surround speakers are placed close to the listening position. Placing surround speakers too close to the listing position without adjusting the delay time will significantly reduce the quality of your movie soundtrack. To correct this problem, press the DELAY Button repeatedly until SL/SR appears on the display. Increase the time delay of the surround speakers by pressing D TIME + until you are able to hear a 3D sound effect coming from surround speakers.

DRC

The M6 501P features Dynamic Range

Compression (DRC). This sophisticated technology creates realistic sound fields with rich, detailed sound that is remarkably free from distortion.

Repeatedly pressing DRC button will cycle through

3 modes as detailed below:

NO” means no compression is performed to the original audio signal. This gives the listener the greatest dynamic range.

HALF” means the audio signal is partially compressed. This function is useful if the M6 501P is connected to an external amplifier.

FULL” means the audio signal is completely compressed. This function is also useful if the M6

501P is connected to an external amplifier.

Press the DRC Button and the current setting of Dynamic Range Compression mode is displayed:
