Introduction
Performance Features
•DLP Chip
The McIntosh MDLP1 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 assures
an image with even illumination, focused from edge to
edge and accurate fully saturated colors. The light is fil
-
tered by a large 98mm 7-segment color wheel incorporat-
ing a Neutral Density Filter Segment which enhances the
black level 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 al-
low screen sizes ranging from 70 inches to 250 inches with
a 16:9 wide aspect ratio for the Medium Throw Lens or 80
inches to 300 inches with a 16:9 wide aspect ratio for the
Long Throw Lens.
• Advanced Filter Wheel Design
The color filter wheel spins at 10,800 RPM, making color
breakup (rainbow effect) a thing of the past. The quiet
filter wheel motor uses a Fluid Dynamic Bearing for silent
and reliable operation.
• Placement Compensation
The MDLP1 Projector incorporates numerous adjustments,
compensating for less then ideal projector/screen position
-
ing. These adjustments include a Lens shift feature for
vertically positioning the projection point, digital correc-
tion of vertical keystone distortion and projection modes for
functional, hanging and rear projection.

video source, from 480i to 1080p. There is a special 1080p
direct pixel pass through mode when the MDLP1 Projector
is used with the McIntosh VP1000 Video Processor.
• Video Adjustments

portant 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 (Theater, Standard
and Dynamic).
• HDMI Connectivity
The MDLP1 has two HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia
Interface) inputs and accepts 1080p signals.
• Total Component Integration
The MDLP1 is designed to work seamless with the McIn

tosh VP1000 Video Processor and the McIntosh AP1000
Audio Processor.
• 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 MDLP1 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 MDLP1 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 Front Panel Illumination
The even illumination of the Top Panel is accomplished by
the combination of a custom designed Fiber Optic Light
Diffuser and a extra long life Light Emitting Diode (LED).
The glass Top Panel ensures the pristine beauty of the
MDLP1 will be retained for many years.
