COMPRESSION

• LINE OUT: Compress input signals linearly.

DUAL MONO

This is the output mode of the L and R signals of the set audio output. If it is set to “MIXED MONO”, the function
only works when the DVD being played is 5.1-channel.

DYNAMIC RNG

When the compression mode is set to “LINE OUT”, this is selected to adjust linear compression rate to obtain
the different compression results of the signals.

5.1 CHANNEL OUTPUT

ON:

Switch 5.1 speakers on.

OFF:

Close the rear/center/super bass speakers.

Notes: When opening the 5.1 channels, SPDIF must be set to off.
