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.
1 Open the ‘Sound Setup’
menu.
2 Select ‘D.R.C.’, then press ENTER.
3 Select a setting.
Select one of the following:
• D.R.C. High – Dynamic range is reduced
(loud sounds are reduced in volume while
quieter sounds are increased)
• D.R.C. Mid – Mid setting
• D.R.C. Off – No dynamic range adjustment
(use when listening at higher volume)
4 Press to exit.
Virtual Surround Back
This mode allows you to use your surround
speakers with standard surround setup to
listen to a virtual surround back channel. 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 unit only apply this
effect to 6.1 encoded sources like Dolby Digital
EX or DTS-ES.
