over 51.

Dynamic Range Control

When watching Dolby Digital or DTS material at low volume, low
level sounds — including some of the dialog — can be difficult to
hear properly. Using one of the Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
settings can help by bringing up the low level sounds, while
controlling high level peaks.

Dynamic Range Control works only with Dolby Digital soundtracks
and some DTS soundtracks.

Using the Virtual Surround Back
mode

This mode allows you to hear a virtual surround back channel
through your surround speakers. You can choose to listen to
sources with no surround back channel information, or if the
material sounds better in the format (for example, 5.1) for which it
was originally encoded, you can have the receiver only apply this
effect to 6.1 encoded sources like Dolby Digital EX or DTS-ES.
