When

is selected in the speaker setting,
the center distance can’t be set.
Surround speaker distance
setting
• Default setting:
10 ft.
Like the center speaker, you should set the
distance of the surround speakers accurately to
hear sounds coming from both front and
surround speakers at the same time.
•
Use
’
or
‘
to set the distance of the
surround speakers from the main listening
position (within a range of 0.5 ft. to 45 ft.).
When
S
is selected in the speaker setting,
the surround distance can’t be set.
Subwoofer distance setting
• Default setting:
10 ft.
Like your speakers, you should set the distance
of your subwoofer accurately to hear sounds
coming from all speakers at the same time.
•
Use
’
or
‘
to set the distance of the
subwoofer from the main listening position
(within a range of 0.5 ft. to 45 ft.).
When
NO
is selected in the subwoofer
setting, the subwoofer distance can’t be set.
Dynamic range control setting
• Default setting:
OFF
Dynamic range is the difference between the
loudest and softest sounds in any given signal.
With this setting, you can compress the
dynamic range, so that low level sounds can be
heard more easily (sounding relatively louder)
yet louder sounds won’t be too overbearing.
•
Press
’
or
‘
to set the dynamic range
control (OFF, MAX, or MID).
• When listening at low volumes, set to
MAX
for maximum dynamic range compres-
sion.
• Dynamic range control is effective only
when a Dolby Digital signal is being played
back.
Dual mono setting
• Default setting:
ch1
The dual mono setting can only be used when
listening to Dolby Digital discs with dual mono
encoding. These discs are not widely used, but
are sometimes used when it is necessary to
have one language on one channel and a
different language on the other. With this
setting you can choose which channel in the
dual mono setting you want to listen to.
If Dolby Digital mode is switched on, you will
hear the channel you have selected (either
ch1
or
ch2
) through your center speaker. With Dolby
Digital mode off, or if you don’t have a center
speaker, you will hear the channel you have
selected through both front speakers. In the
Lch1.Rch2
setting, the left front speaker will
play channel 1 and the right front speaker will
play channel 2.
•
Use
’
or
‘
to cycle through the
possible DUAL MONO settings.
