Sound
Channels
Certain programs on DVD or
other digital sources display a
loss of detail, especially during
fast-motion or dark scenes
❏ The compression used by certain digital broadcasts and DVDs may cause your
TV’s screen to display less detail than usual, or cause artifacts (small blocks or
dots, pixelations) to appear on your screen. This is due to your TV’s large screen
and ability to show very fine detail, and is normal for certain digitally recorded
programs. Adjust the Reality/Clarity in the DRC Palette setting (see page 35) to
optimize the picture while viewing these sources.

Sound seems weak or
insufficient ❏ The TV’s audio might be set to Auto SAP or Mono, when it might be better set to

already set to Stereo, switch to Mono (which may reduce background noise
during weak stereo broadcasts).
Cannot raise the volume on
external speakers
❏ If the Speaker option is set to Off and the Audio Out option is set to Fixed (in
order to output the sound to your audio system), use your audio receiver to adjust
the sound (see page 38). Or, to use the TV remote control, set the Audio Out
option to Variable.
❏ To turn on the TV speakers, set the Speaker option to On (see page 38).
