NAD L 54 DVD Player User Manual


 
ABOUT THE ON-SCREEN DISPLAY (OSD)
The L 54 employs a self-explanatory on-screen display “menu” for the internal DVD player. This “menu”
will appear on the connected video monitor/TV and is required during the setup process (useful in
day-to-day operation), so be sure to connect the monitor/TV before proceeding with setup.
DISPLAYING THE L 54 DVD OSD
While in DVD mode, press the L 54’s “SETUP/MEMORY” button momentarily for the DVD’s Setup Menu
OSD to appear. With the use of the HTR 4’s navigation buttons, you may select various menus. If the
Setup Menu does not appear, check your applicable “MONITOR OUT” connections either “COMPOSITE”
or “S-VIDEO” outputs.
The L 54’S Setup Menu OSD will appear on the Component Video OUT (NTSC/PAL), SCART/RGB (PAL)
output, Monitor OUT (Video/S-Video) and on the VCR record outputs.
AUDIO MODE
The AUDIO MODE feature of the L 54 allows one to adjust or congure SRS, BASS, TREBLE, LEFT
channel, RIGHT channel and DRC. Press AUDIO MODE button on the front panel or HTR 4 (make sure
you are at AMP device) and then use the VOLUME knob or the HTR 4’s volume keys to adjust or
congure these features.
SRS TRUSURROUND
SRS Labs developed TruSurround®, a patented technology that accepts any multichannel source such
as Dolby Digital, Dolby Surround or DTS, including MPEG 1 and 2 and transforms it into a compelling
surround sound experience over just two speakers or headphones.
TruSurround is suited for any environment where multichannel content is experienced without the
benet of having surround sound speakers installed. With TruSurround, incoming multichannel audio
is processed into two channels and delivered over stereo speakers, giving the listener a completely
immersive experience and the sensory perception that additional “phantom” speakers surround them.
To activate SRS TruSurround, press “AUDIO MODE” at the front panel or HTR 4 remote. Select SRS mode.
Toggle the SRS to ON or OFF using the L 54’s volume knob or the HTR 4 volume keys.
NOTE
SRS TruSurround is designed to be used with surround encoded soundtracks, such as those found on
movies and music video DVDs. Results with stereo music soundtracks typically found on CDs can be
variable and we generally do not recommend SRS for enhancing these programs. Furthermore, SRS
decoding is only available on digital sources and cannot be selected for analog sources such as FM
radio and VCR inputs.

LEFT AND RIGHT BALANCE ADJUST SETUP
Adjusting the relative balance of your system’s loudspeakers ensures that surround-sound
recordings, whether music or lm, will present the balance of eects, music, and dialog that the
artists intended. Additionally, if your system incorporates a subwoofer it establishes a correct
relationship between the volume of the subwoofer and the other speakers, and thus of low-
frequencies (bass) to other sonic elements.
After selecting “AUDIO MODE”, toggle from “LEFT” and “RIGHT” level adjustment and ne tune the level
of each channel with the volume knob or remote’s volume keys.
ADJUSTING THE TONE CONTROLS
The L 54 is tted with BASS and TREBLE tone controls to adjust the tonal balance of your system.
Maximum and minimum values for both tone controls are -/+ 10 dB. Bass/treble settings aect only
the front left/right channels, not the subwoofer.
