theaters may sound too bright when played
back through speakers in the home environ-
ment.
LATE NIGHT: Sets “High,” “Low,” or “Off” for the late
night function
• Cinema sound has a vast dynamic range; there-
fore, to hear the quieter sounds such as human
conversations, they must be played back at
larger volumes. When this parameter is set to
“High” or “Low,” the dynamic range of the
sound is narrowed down to allow you to easily
hear minute sounds at low volumes. This function
is especially useful if you wish to play a movie at
low volumes during the nighttime.
