Manual and the lamp replacement instructions. Re-

member to handle the lamp with care. In the event of

serious trouble, call a McIntosh Authorized Dealer.

1a. Do not directly expose skin to the light of the lamp

as it can cause inflammation.

2b. Do not drop, impact, subject to excessive force or

otherwise damage the lamp.

3c. Replacing the lamp runs the risk of burns, cuts

and electric shock, unplug the AC power cord

from the AC power outlet and wait at least 60

minutes for the lamp to cool down before attempt-

ing to replace it.

4d. If the lamp breaks and the projector is hung from a

ceiling or installed in a high place, unplug the AC

Introduction

Performance Features

•DLP Chip

The McIntosh MDLP2 Video Projector incorporates the

latest and largest available Digital Light Processing (DLP)

Dark Chip for use in a Home Theater Projector. The large

chip size is 0.95 inch and produces a High Definition Im-

age of 1920 x 1080 pixels.

• Advanced Optical System

The light source for the projector is the industry’s only 200

Watt DC Super High Pressure lamp assembly. This as-

sures an image with even illumination, focused from edge

to edge and accurate fully saturated colors. The light is

filtered by a large 98mm 7-segment color wheel incorpo-

rating a Neutral Density Filter Segment for enhanced black

levels during dark scenes. After the light is reflected by the

DLP Chip, it is then precisely focused by a Konica-Minolta

custom designed zoom lens. This lens is fully sealed and

consists of 13 all-glass elements. The optics allow for

screen sizes with 16:9 wide aspect ratio ranging from 70

to 250 inches for the Medium Throw Lens or 80 to 300

inches for the Long Throw Lens.

• Dual Iris

The MDLP2 incoporates an adjustable Dual Iris Optical

Light Path. This provides images with bright vivid color

and high contrast ratios.

• Advanced Filter Wheel Design

The color filter wheel spins at 10,800 RPM, making color

breakup (rainbow effect) a thing of the past, along with

three user speeds settings. The quiet filter wheel motor

uses a Fluid Dynamic Bearing for silent and reliable opera-

tion.

• Placement Compensation

The MDLP2 Projector incorporates numerous adjustments,

compensating for less then ideal projector/screen position-

ing.

• Enhanced Video Processing

The Video Circuitry uses the very latest in processing

The McIntosh MDLP2 Video Projector is one of the finest

projectors ever created. It utilizes the latest Digital Micro-

mirror DeviceTM containing over 2 million individual pixels

(1080p) and produces images of such high quality, it’s just

like being there.

Connectors and Cable Information, Introduction and Performance Features

algorithms to produce an excellent image regardless of

the video source, from 480i to 1080p. This includes the

1080/24p frame rate available from some video sources.

Also there is a special direct pixel pass through mode when

used with external Video Processors.

• Video Adjustments

The MDLP2 allows for adjustment of important image

quality effecting parameters, such as Color Temperature,

Gamma and Black Level. There are also user adjustments

with the ability to store the settings for future recall, along

with three preset modes.

• HDMITM 1.3 Connectivity with improved Color

There are two HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Inter-

face) inputs accepting 1080p signals. The MDLP2 supports

Deep ColorTM ( 8bit, 10bit or 12bit signals) for reproduction

of over one billion possible colors and x.v. ColorTM (Color

Space) can display any color viewable by the human eye.

• On-Screen Information Displays

The On-Screen Display indicates the Source Selection and

Information about the source signal. The Menu Selections

and Adjustments are also displayed on screen.

• Die Cast Internal Chassis

The MDLP2 die cast aluminum internal chassis assures

the precise mechanical alignment of the entire hermetically

sealed optical light path, which is necessary for a sharp,

highly detailed and accurate color image. The die cast

chassis also assures low operating noise and also helps to

dissipate heat away from the sensitive internal components.

• Machined Top and Bottom Panels

The MDLP2 Top and Bottom Panels are machined from

thick aluminum with a smooth black anodized finish.

• Special Power Supply

Fully regulated Power Supplies ensure stable noise free

operation even though the power line varies.

• Fiber Optic Solid State Top Panel Illumination

The even illumination of the Top Panel is accomplished

by the combination of a custom designed Fiber Optic

Light Diffuser and an extra long life Light Emitting Diode

(LED). The glass Top Panel ensures the pristine beauty of

the MDLP2 will be retained for many years.

Installation

For the best possible image reproduction by the McIntosh

MDLP2 Video Projector, it is important to observe the fol-

lowing:

CAUTION: The MDLP2 Video Projector weight

is 40 pounds (18.14 kilograms). When

mounting the projector to a building

structure it is important to follow all of

the local building/constuction codes.

1. Decide on a viewing area with either subdued and/

or controlled ambient lighting.

2. Choose a projector screen designed specifically to

work with images from a DLP Projector.

3. Locate the position of the MDLP2 Projector rela-

tive to the projector screen to maximize image

quality and minimize optical distortions.

4. Provide adequate ventilation.

The information below and on the following pages will as-

sist in the location of the Projector. It is recommended that

the Professionals at your McIntosh Dealer, who are skilled

in all aspects of installation and operation, install the

MDLP2 Video Projector and any associated audio/video

equipment.

Installation Overview

Ventilation

Always provide adequate ventilation for your MDLP2.

Cool operation ensures the longest possible operating life

for any electronic instrument. Do not install the MDLP2

directly above a heat generating component. Refer to fig-

ures 1 and 2.

The MDLP2 is designed to be placed upright on a solid

flat surface, resting on its three feet with unrestricted air

flow around it. Allow at least 1 foot (30.48 cm) of space

between the Primary Warm Air Exit ventilation holes and

the nearest wall or obstruction. There should be at least

3 inches (7.62 cm) between the Primary Cool Air Input

ventilation holes and the nearest wall or obstruction. The

ambient air temperature should not exceed 95°F (35°C).

The projector uses two primary and three secondary

cool air input vents together with one primary warm air

exit vent. Refer to the illustration on this page. The air flow

in or out of these vents needs to be unrestricted at all times

during operation.

In the event the MDLP2 is to be placed into an enclo-

sure restricting air flow around the projector, some type of

ducted forced air venting system would need to be imple-

mented for the primary input 1 and 2 vents along with the

primary exit vent.
