48khz:
If your receiver or amplifier is not capable of handling 96 kHz

automatically converts any 96 kHz and 192 kHz signals to 48 kHz so your
system can decode them.

If your receiver or amplifier is not capable of handling 192 kHz
signals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit automatically
converts any 192 kHz signal to 96 kHz so your system can decode them.

If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 192 kHz
signals, select 192 kHz. When this choice is made, a 192 kHz signal
passes through without any further processing.
Check the documentation of your amplifier to verify its capabilities.

You can select the effective dynamic range (subjective range from soft to
loud) for playback of Dolby Digital or Dolby Digital Plus soundtracks. It
is useful when you watch your favorite action movie without disturbing
others at night.

The “On” setting is for late-night sessions or other times when you
wish to retain maximum dialog intelligibility while minimizing overall
volume levels.

NOTE
DRC setting can be changed only at STOP mode or when there is no disc
loaded.
