NTSC discs.

Audio DRC

• Default setting:

Off

When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low volume, it’s
easy to lose low level sounds completely—including
some of the dialog. Switching on Audio DRC (Dynamic
Range Control) can help by bringing up the low level
sounds, while controlling high level peaks.

1

During playback or when paused, press HOME

MENU and select ‘Video/Audio Adjust’.

2

Select ‘Audio Adjust’.

3

Select ‘Audio DRC’.

4

Use the

/

(cursor left/right) buttons to adjust

DRC from ‘Off‘ to ‘Max’.

Exactly how much difference you can hear between the
settings will depend on the material.

Remember

• Audio DRC is not effective when listening to a disc via

the digital output when

Dolby Digital Out

is set to

Dolby Digital

. In this case adjust the dynamic range

from your AV amplifier/receiver.

Virtual Surround

• Default setting:

Off

Switch on Virtual Surround to enjoy surround sound
effects from just two speakers.

When playing any Dolby Digital encoded material, SRS
TruSurround produces a deep, cinema-like sound space
from any pair of speakers.

SRS TruSurround is licenced from SRS Labs and
certified by Dolby Laboratories for Virtual Dolby
technology.

1

During playback or when paused, press HOME

MENU and select ‘Video/Audio Adjust’.

Note

• Virtual Surround has no effect on 96 kHz Linear PCM

audio, DTS audio and audio CDs.

analog outputs and the DV output. The Virtual
Surround setting has no effect on the rear panel
optical digital output.

• There is no optical digital audio output when playing

multi-channel Dolby Digital discs if the Dolby Digital
Out setting (page 82) is set to

Dolby Digital

PCM

and Virtual Surround is set to

TruSurround

.
