How to Operate the Setup Mode

Your McIntosh MVP871 has been factory configured for default operating settings that will allow you to immedi- ately enjoy superb video and high fidelity audio from a DVD-Video. It also reproduces DVD-Audio, SACDs and CDs with unparalleled sonic purity. If you wish to make changes to the factory default settings, a Setup feature is provided to customize the operating settings using the On Screen Display (OSD) Menus.
