Using Midnight and Loudness
The Midnight listening feature allows you to hear effec-
tive surround sound of movies at low volume levels. The
effect automatically adjusts according to the volume at
which you’re listening. The Loudness listening feature
can be used to get good bass and treble from music
sources at low volume levels.
• Press RECEIVER then press MIDNIGHT/LOUDNESS
to switch between MIDNIGHT, LOUDNESS, and OFF.
Using the Sound Retriever
When audio data is removed during the WMA/MP3/
MPEG-4 AAC compression process, sound quality often
suffers from an uneven sound image. The Sound
Retriever feature employs new DSP technology that
helps bring CD quality sound back to compressed 2-
channel audio by restoring sound pressure and
smoothing jagged artifacts left over after compression.
• Press RECEIVER then press S. RETRIEVER (SOUND
RETRIEVER) to switch the sound retriever on or off.
Enhancing dialog

The Dialog Enhancement feature localizes dialog in the
center channel to make it stand out from other
background sounds in a TV or movie soundtrack.
• Press RECEIVER then p ress DIALOG E to switch
dialog enhancement on or off.
