Dynamic Range Control
Specifies the amount of dynamic range
adjustment to Dolby Digital or DTS
soundtracks:
• DRC Off – No dynamic range adjustment
(use when listening at higher volume)
• DRC Mid – Mid setting
• DRC High – Dynamic range is reduced
(loud sounds are reduced in volume while
quieter sounds are increased)
• This setting works only with Dolby Digital
and some DTS soundtracks. For other
sources you can create a similar effect
using the Midnight mode (see
Using
Quiet and Midnight listening modes on
page 40).
Dual mono setting
Specifies how dual mono encoded Dolby
Digital or DTS soundtracks should be played.
You can also use this setting to switch the
audio channel on DVD-RW discs recorded
with two separate soundtracks.
• L-ch1 R-ch2 – Both channels are played
through the front speakers
• CH1 Mono – Only channel 1 is played
• CH2 Mono – Only channel 2 is played
• On the Ch1 Mono and Ch2 Mono
settings the sound comes only from the
center speaker (or from the front speakers
if listening in
STEREO mode).
• This setting works only with dual mono
encoded Dolby Digital or DTS
soundtracks. See the disc packaging for
channel information.
LFE attenuator setting
Dolby Digital and DTS audio sources include
ultra-low bass tones. Set the LFE attenuator
as needed to prevent the ultra-low bass from
distorting the sound.
• LFE ATT 0 – The LFE channel is played
with no attenuation
• LFE ATT 10 – LFE channel is attenuated
by 10dB
• LFE Off – LFE channel is not played
Setting the channel levels
You can set the relative channel levels from
your main listening position for each listening
mode, including all the Surround and
Advanced Surround modes.
If you used the Room Setup feature (page 27),
the channel levels for each listening mode
will already be set. However, you can still fine-
tune the levels here if you need to.
1 Press SURROUND or ADVANCED
repeatedly to select a listening mode.
2 Press TEST TONE (SHIFT + 4) to hear
the test tone.
The test tone is output in the following order
(from the speakers active in the current
listening mode):
• FL – Front left speaker
• C – Center speaker
• FR – Front right speaker
• RS – Right surround speaker
• LS – Left surround speaker
• SW – Subwoofer
3 Use the VOLUME +/– button to adjust
the volume to an appropriate level.
