Adaptive DRC (Adaptive dynamic range control)
Use this feature to adjust the dynamic range in
conjunction with the volume level. This feature is useful
when you are listening at lower volumes or at night. When
“Adaptive DRC” is set to “Auto”, this unit controls the
dynamic range as follows:
– If the VOLUME setting is low:
the dynamic range is narrow
– If the VOLUME setting is high:
the dynamic range is wide
y
• You can also adjust the dynamic range of the bitstream signal
sources by using “Dynamic Range” in “Sound” (see page 82).
• This function is also useful for listening with your headphones.
The adaptive dynamic range control feature does not function
when this unit is in the Pure Direct mode (see page 51).
Adaptive DSP Lvl (Adaptive DSP effect level)
Use this feature to make fine adjustments of the DSP
effect level (see page 71) automatically in conjunction
with the volume level.
Even if you set “Adaptive DSP Lvl” to “Auto”, this unit does not
change but fine-tunes the specified value of “DSP Level” (see
page 71).
Max Volume (Maximum volume)
Use this feature to set the maximum volume level in the main
zone. This feature is useful to avoid the unexpected loud
sound by mistake. For example, the original volume range is
–80.0 dB to +16.5 dB. However, when “Max Volume” is set
to –5.0 dB, the volume range becomes –80.0 dB to –5.0 dB.
Control range: –30.0 dB to +15.0 dB, +
16.5 dB
Control step: 5.0 dB
Initial Volume (Initial volume)
Use this feature to set the volume level of the main zone
when the power of this unit is turned on.
Choices:
Off
, Mute, –80.0 dB to +16.5 dB
Control step: 0.5 dB
• When this unit is in the auto setup procedure, the volume level
is automatically set to 0 dB regardless of the current “Max
Volume” setting.
• The “Max Volume” setting takes priority over the initial volume
setting. For example, if “Initial Volume” is set to –20.0 dB and
“Max Volume” is set to –30.0 dB, the volume level is
automatically set to –30.0 dB when you turn on the power of
this unit next time.
Muting Type (Muting type)
Use this feature to adjust how much the mute function
reduces the output volume (see page 43).
