ABOUT THE RT-10

Thank you for purchasing the RT-10 Disc Player, a reference-quality universal disc transport designed to provide superior audio and video performance with virtually any 3- or 5-inch optical media disc format. Based on leading-edge DVD and SACD research, the RT-10 supports DVD-V, DVD-A, DVD-RW/R, SACD, Audio CD, CD-RW/R, Video CD, and SVCD formats. It delivers exceptional sound quality with Dolby Digital, DTS, and PCM (Linear or Packed) digital audio sources. In addition, it supports most MPEG video and MP3 audio sources.

With rear panel connectors befitting a reference-quality player, the RT-10 includes the standard composite and S-video output connectors, as well as progressive-scan component video output on RCA or professional-grade BNC connectors. High-precision 12-bit/ 108MHz D/A converters provide a pristine video image without degradation during analog conversion. Progressive-scan component video output converts interlaced video signals to progressive video signals, doubling the amount of video information sent to a compatible display device. The result is a higher quality, more stable image with fewer video artifacts.

Video Adjust allows for exact, detailed adjustment of video settings such as Pure Cinema, sharpness, white, black, gamma, hue, and chroma levels, as well as luminance (YNR), chrominance (CNR), mosquito (MNR), and black (BNR) noise reduction. Pure Cinema automatically converts film sources recorded at 24 frames-per- second to 60 frames-per-second to create a more natural picture. The RT-10 offers six banks of Video Adjust settings, including three preset banks for CRT, plasma, and professional display devices and three memory banks for storage of user-defined Video Adjust settings.

Digital audio sources are available on S/PDIF or analog audio output connectors. Three digital audio output connectors – one S/PDIF coaxial, one S/PDIF optical, and one AES/EBU – allow for external decoding and processing of Dolby Digital, DTS, and PCM (Linear or Packed) sources. Alternatively, built-in 24-bit/192kHz D/A converters on all six analog audio output connectors allow highbandwidth formats such as DVD-A and SACD to deliver smooth, expansive analog sound without sample rate conversion and digital word length reduction.

Setup is simplified with color on-screen display menus that can be customized for the desired level of control. The Setup Navigator provides step-by-step guidance through the process of configuring minimum settings. When activated, it presents a series of questions that, when answered, allow the RT-10 to implement the correct audio, video, and language settings.

The Setup menu provides access to more advanced controls. Available in basic and expert display modes, the Setup menu can be customized to include controls that are required to configure the most common settings or to include all controls that are available. In addition, the RT-10 allows the creation of up to five shortcuts, which provide convenient access to frequently adjusted controls without navigating through the entire Setup menu.

Built to Lexicon standards, the RT-10 represents a solid investment that promises to complement the finest home theaters. With its extensive compatibility, the RT-10 is sure to deliver exceptional performance whether watching the latest blockbuster on DVD or listening to a remix of an old favorite on SACD. Even the most demanding enthusiast will be impressed with its unbeatable combination of technology, flexibility, and simplicity.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

The RT-10 requires special care during installation to ensure optimal performance. Pay particular attention to the bulleted items that begin below and to other precautions that appear throughout this user guide.

CAUTION Before moving the RT-10, make sure the disc drawer is empty and the RT-10 is powered off with the front panel On/Off

button. Then, make sure the power cord is disconnected from the wall outlet and that other cables are disconnected from associated components.

Never lift or move the RT-10 during playback. Discs rotate at high speeds inside the player. Movement might damage the disc and the player.

DO . . .

•Install the RT-10 on a solid, flat, level surface such as a table or shelf or in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. An optional rack-mount kit is available from authorized Lexicon dealers.

•Select a dry, well-ventilated location out of direct sunlight.

Installation Considerations (continued from page 1-3)

DO NOT . . .

•Install the RT-10 on a surface that is unstable or unable to support all four of its feet (unless the RT-10 is installed in an equipment rack).

•Stack the RT-10 directly above heat-producing components such as power amplifiers and other stereo equipment that generate heat during use. Avoid installing the RT-10 near radiators and other heat-producing appliances.

•Expose the RT-10 to high temperatures, direct sunlight, humidity, steam, smoke, dampness, and excessive dust.

•Install the RT-10 near unshielded TV or FM antennas, cable TV decoders, and other RF emitting devices that might cause interference. Replace unshielded cables with shielded cables whenever possible.

•Prevent proper cooling. Do not block or cover ventilation slots and openings on the RT-10 with items such as newspapers, cloths, and curtains. Do not place the RT-10 on a thick carpet, bed, sofa, or fabric with a thick pile.

•Expose the RT-10 to sudden or drastic temperature changes, as this might cause condensation to form on the RT-10 lens. Although condensation will not damage the RT-10, it might temporarily impair performance. If this occurs, allow at least 1 hour for condensation to evaporate before attempting to load a disc.

•Obstruct the front panel display remote control sensor when the RT-10 is not using the IR input connector. If the RT-10 is not using the IR IN connector, the remote control must be in line- of-sight with the front panel display remote control sensor. Refer to page 2-14 for more information.

Note:

The RT-10 lens should not become dirty or damaged from regular use. However, if malfunction occurs, contact an authorized Lexicon dealer for assistance. Do not attempt to clean the lens with a commercially available DVD or CD lens cleaner, as some of these products might damage the RT-10 lens.

DVD-V REGIONS

The map shown below indicates DVD-V region codes for all areas of the world. All DVD-Vs are marked with a region code, which is often located on the disc packaging. The RT-10 rear panel is also marked with a region code. The RT-10 is compatible with discs marked with this same region code or with the ALL region code. The RT-10 is not compatible with discs marked with other region codes.
