x D.Range Comp (Dynamic range compressor) Lets you compress the dynamic range of the sound track. This may be useful when you want to watch movies at low volumes late at night. Dynamic range compression is possible with Dolby Digital sources only. • MAX The dynamic range is compressed dramatically. • STD The dynamic range is compressed as intended by the recording engineer. • AUTO The dynamic range is applied automatically with Dolby TrueHD source or other source is set to "OFF". • OFF The dynamic range is not compressed. Tips • Dynamic range compressor lets you compress the dynamic range of the soundtrack based on the dynamic range information included in the Dolby Digital signal. • "STD" is the standard setting, but it only enacts light compression. Therefore, we recommend using the "MAX" setting. This greatly compresses the dynamic range and lets you view movies late at night at low volumes. Unlike analog limiters, the levels are predetermined and provide a very natural compression. x Distance Unit (Distance unit) Lets you select the unit of measure for setting distances. • METER The distance is displayed in meters. • FEET The distance is displayed in feet. Adjusting the equalizer You can use following parameters to adjust the tonal quality (bass/treble level) of all speakers, and apply them. These settings are applied to all sound fields and for each speaker.
