from adjacent speakers. Some items may not be displayed, depending on the setting of the speaker pattern. 3 Press V/v to adjust "Level:," then press . To output the source sound from adjacent speakers You can output the source sound from adjacent speakers so that you can adjust the balance between the speakers. 1 Press B/b to select "Phase Audio," then press . The Phase Audio screen appears. 2 Press V/v to adjust the parameter, then press . • OFF • L/R, L/C, C/R, R/SL, R/SR, SR/SL, SR/ SBR, SBR/SBL, SR/SB, SBL/SL, SB/ SL, SL/L, L/SR Lets you output front 2 channel source sound (instead of the test tone) sequentially from adjacent speakers. Some items may not be displayed, depending on the setting of the speaker pattern. 3 Press V/v to adjust "Level:," then press . When a test tone is not output from the speakers • The speaker cords may not be connected securely. Check to see if they are connected securely and cannot be disconnected by pulling on them slightly. • The speaker cords may have the short-circuit problem. When a test tone is output from a different speaker than the speaker displayed on the screen The speaker pattern to the connected speaker is not set up correctly. Make sure the speaker connection and the speaker pattern match. D. Range Comp (Dynamic range compressor) Lets you compress the dynamic range of the soundtrack. 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. x OFF The dynamic range is not compressed. x AUTO The dynamic range is compressed automatically. x STD The dynamic range is compressed as intended by the recording engineer. x MAX The dynamic range is compressed dramatically. 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. 108GB
