Level of the rear speakers.
Range: –6 dB to 6 dB, 1 dB steps

LFE
• LFE *****: (0 dB)
Level of the LFE (Low Frequency Effect)
channel output.
Range: OFF, –20 dB to 0 dB, 1 dB steps
“OFF” cuts the sound of the LFE channel.
However, the low frequency sound of the
speakers are output from the sub woofer.
“–20 dB” to “0 dB” settings allow you to
attenuate the LFE signal. “0 dB” outputs the
full LFE signal at the mix level determined by
the recording engineer.
x
D.COMP.
• D.COMP.: (STD)
Dynamic range compression.
Range: OFF, 0.1 to 0.9, STD, MAX
“OFF” does not compress the dynamic range.
“0.1” to “0.9” settings allow you to compress
the dynamic range in small steps. “STD”
reproduces the sound track with the dynamic
range intended by the recording engineer.
“MAX” provides a great compression of the
dynamic range.
x
T.TONE (MHC-DP800AV only)
• T.TONE: (OFF)
Test tone output.
Range: OFF, ON
“ON” outputs the test tone from each speaker in
sequence. Adjust the LEVEL and BALANCE
parameters so that the volume level of the test
tone from each speaker sounds the same using
the remote from your listening position. Select
“OFF” to turn off the test tone.
Notes
• When you adjust the level of the sub woofer, set
T.TONE to “OFF”.
• Dynamic range compression is possible with Dolby
Digital sources only.
