If the source is a 2-channel LPCM audio or a 2-
channel Dolby Digital audio and you select SFC
effects that are most applicable for 5.1-channel
audio (i.e.,

MUSICAL, DRAMA or ACTION), we

recommend turning Dolby Pro Logic II on. On the
other hand, when selecting SFC effects that are
intended for use with 2-channel audio (i.e.,

HALL or CLUB), we recommend turning Dolby
Pro Logic II off.

Using the dynamic range control

The dynamic range refers to the difference be-
tween the largest and softest sounds. The dy-
namic range control compresses this

difference so that you can clearly hear sounds
even at low volume levels.
! The dynamic range control is effective only

on Dolby Digital sounds.
