Adjusting input signal
(See page 19)
When using the DSP mode effect during playback from an analog
device, the sound will occasionally be distorted due to a overly-
strong input signal. In these instances, it is possible to adjust the
level of the input signal. Only input signals from analog devices (TV
SOUND, VCR, TAPE, AUX, MD, DBS) may be adjusted in this
way.
1.
Open the SOUND MENU.
See page 41, “Opening the SOUND MENU”.
2.
Move the pointer to INPUT ATT. using the
5
/
∞
cursors.
3.
Use the
2
/
3
cursors to select ON or NORMAL.
Pressing
2
/
3
toggles loudness ON or NORMAL.
ON
:
Recommended to reduce sound distortion.
NORMAL :
Default setting.
Notes:
• This setting does not affect digital signals.
• When in ON mode, ATT will light up in the display window.
However, when the playback source is digital (DVD, etc.) it will
go off. Lighting up will resume if playback is switched to an
analog device.
• Even while in ON mode, if the DSP mode is turned off (“DSP
OFF”), playback will continue without any reduction of the input
signal.
Adjusting the sub-woofer output level
When the sub-woofer output level is too high, use the LFE
Attenuator to lower the output level.

This function is only available when the source is recorded in Dolby
Digital.

MID
:
Slightly compresses the dynamic range.
LARGE :
Maximum compression of the dynamic range.
(recommended for nighttime listening).
OFF
:
Choose this option to enjoy surround sound with the
regular dynamic range.
