2 Surround parameters e
CINEMA EQ. (Cinema Equalizer):
The Cinema EQ function gently decreases the level of the
extreme high frequencies, compensating for overly-bright
sounding motion picture soundtracks. Select this function if the
sound from the front speakers is too bright.
This function only works in the Dolby Pro Logic
II x, Dolby
Digital, DTS Surround and DTS NEO:6 modes. (The same
contents are set for all operating modes.)
D.COMP. (Dynamic Range Compression):
Motion picture soundtracks have tremendous dynamic range
(the contrast between very soft and very loud sounds). For
listening late at night, or whenever the maximum sound level is
lower than usual, the Dynamic Range Compression allows you
to hear all of the sounds in the soundtrack (but with reduced
dynamic range). (This only works when playing program
sources recorded in Dolby Digital or DTS). Select one of the
four parameters (“OFF”, “LOW”, “MID” (middle) or “HI”
(high)). Set to OFF for normal listening.
LFE (Low Frequency Effect):
This sets the level of the LFE (Low Frequency Effect) sounds
included in the source when playing program sources recorded
in Dolby Digital or DTS.
If the sound produced from the subwoofer sounds distorted
due to the LFE signals when playing Dolby Digital or DTS
sources when the peak limiter is turned off with the subwoofer
peak limit level setting (system setup menu), adjust the level as
necessary.
Program source and adjustment range:
1. Dolby Digital: –10 dB to 0 dB
2. DTS Surround: –10 dB to 0 dB
When DTS encoded movie software is played, it is
recommended that the LFE LEVEL be set to 0 dB for
correct DTS playback.
When DTS encoded music software is played, it is
recommended that the LFE LEVEL be set to –10 dB for
correct DTS playback.
TONE:
This enables the tone control. This can be set individually for
the separate surround modes other than DIRECT mode.
