Audio DRC
• Default setting:
Off
When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low
volume, it’s easy to lose the quieter sounds
completely—including some of the dialog.
Switching Audio DRC (Dynamic Range
Control) to On can help by bringing up the
quieter sounds, while controlling loud peaks.
How much of a difference you hear depends
on the material you’re listening to. If the
material doesn’t have wide variations in
volume, you may not notice much change.
1
Press HOME MENU and select ‘Audio
Settings’ from the on-screen display.
2
Highlight Audio DRC, then use the
/
(cursor left/right) buttons to change
to ‘On’ or ‘Off’, as required.
3
Press ENTER to make the setting and
exit the Audio Settings screen.
• Audio DRC is only effective with Dolby
Digital audio sources.
• Audio DRC is only effective through the
digital output when
Digital Out
(see
page 54) is set to
On
, and
Dolby Digital
Out
(see page 55) is set to
Dolby Digital
> PCM
.
• The effect of Audio DRC depends on your
speakers and AV receiver settings.
Virtual Surround
• Default setting:
Off
Switch on Virtual Surround to enjoy surround
sound effects from just two speakers.
When you play a Dolby Digital or Pro Logic
encoded source, TruSurround technology
from SRS produces a deep, realistic 3D
soundspace from a pair of stereo speakers.
SRS TruSurround is a process certified by
Dolby Laboratories for Virtual Dolby Digital
sound.
