When SB is selected in the surround speaker setting, the surround back speaker distance can't be set. Dynamic range control setting • Default setting: OFF Dynamic range is the difference between the loudest and softest sounds in any given signal.

Dual mono setting • Default setting: ch1 The dual mono setting can only be used when listening to Dolby Digital discs with dual mono encoding. These discs are not widely used, but are sometimes used when it is necessary to have one language on one channel and a different language on the other. With this setting you can choose which channel in the dual mono setting you want to listen to. If Dolby Digital mode is switched on, you will hear the channel you have selected (either ch1 or ch2) through your center speaker.
