Basic Operation 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 IIx, Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital, DTS Surround, DTS NEO:6 and WIDE SCREEN 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. This parameter is displayed only when playing compatible sources in DTS mode. 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. 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 adjusts the tone control ( page 63). This can be set individually for the separate surround mode other than PURE DIRECT, DIRECT and Home THX Cinema mode. 2 Dialogue Normalization The dialogue normalization function is activated automatically when playing Dolby Digital program sources. Dialogue normalization is a basic function of Dolby Digital which automatically normalizes the dialog level (standard level) of the signals which are recorded at different levels for different program sources, such as DVD, DTV and other future formats that will use Dolby Digital. When this function is activated, the following message appears on the main unit's display: Display Dial.Norm Offset -4dB The number indicates the normalization level when the currently playing program is normalized to the standard level. 54
