Setup → Volume → Initial Volume (page 90) Adjusting the dynamic range The dynamic range is the difference between the minimum and maximum amplitude. The higher the dynamic range, the more accurate the sound reproduction for bitstream signals. You can adjust the dynamic range for speakers and headphones individually. Also, you can use the adaptive dynamic range control feature to adjust the dynamic range automatically in conjunction with the volume level. Setup → Sound → Dynamic Range (page 90) Setup → Volume → Adaptive DRC (page 89) Adjusting the audio and video synchronization Sometimes, depending on your video source component, video is delayed relative to audio due to processing problems. In this case, you need to manually adjust the audio delay to keep it synchronized with the video.
