ABOUT DRC (DYNAMIC RANGE COMPRESSION)
With the DVD format you have the opportunity to hear a program’s soundtrack in the most accurate and
realistic presentation possible, thanks to the use of digital audio technology. However, in certain instances
you may wish to slightly compress the dynamic range of the audio output (the difference between the
loudest sounds and the quietest ones) so that you may listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing
dialogue intelligibility.
1 At the SETUP screen, press
to select “Others” and press
2 Press
to select the desired items and press SELECT/ENTER.
The setting of the selected item
are changed between On and Off.
DRC (DYNAMIC RANGE COMPRESSION) ON/OFF
On
: Select this option to turn on the Dynamic Range Compression circuitry so that the dialogue remains
clear even at low volume levels.
Off
: Select this option to turn off the Dynamic Range Compression and have the soundtrack presented
exactly as it was created.
NOTES
• The DRC function works only during playback of Dolby Digital recorded discs.
• The level of Dynamic Range Compression may differ depending on the DVD disc.
