Hi guys
The blue display on the UMC-1 is unreadable from 2-3 m distance - is it just me?
Best, Markus

Mine is about 12 ft away from what I am positioned and I can read it just fine. Do you have the display dimmed?

I believe it has 10 dim levels and on some of the dimmer settings it may not be bright enough. Try some of the brighter settings.

I can read mine fine, I sit aqbout 2-3 meters away and have it set at one of the middle settings. I even still have the protective mylar on the display panel.

Looks like I need new glasses.

Have no problem with displays in any other color. Only blue ones look blurry.
P.S. No, it's not dimmed and there's nothing in front of it.

I have complained about this twice now and was told they would get back with me but to no avail hopefully it will be addressed in the firmware update. |

You may be near the edge of your sight power and the all-blue is just enough to be difficult to see. So yeah, maybe check the glasses. |

I might actually suggest dimming it a notch or two and see if it is any easier to read.

Blue is the color of Love, and I never look to my component's front displays (I turn them all OFF if available), cause I'm watching a Movie or listening to Music. My eyes (looking only at the screen's action) & my ears tell me all I need to know, all that truly matters... * I love Blue.  ...But when in Love it's all blurred to me, and simply faded into oblivion, lights dimming all over. ...And I'm in ecstasy! ;D Blue is the sky, the ocean; but Blues is the Soul of Life (good & bad). ...Can you read me clear enough, am I legible enough? Doubidoup doup doup... |
