DELAY TIME AND DYNAMIC RANGE CONTROL

DELAY TIME

The delay time can be individually set for the Dolby Digital/Dolby Pro Logic II modes using the DELAY (CENTER/REAR) buttons.

When you adjust the delay time in the Dolby Digital mode, an additional 15 ms is automatically added to the surround channels in the Dolby Pro Logic mode. The current setting is shown on the display.

1. Press SPK SETUP on the remote control as shown.

The corresponding speaker appears on the display. i.e .C → S → LR

2. Press “DELAY TIME” button to set the time delay.

Delay Time Setting Adjustable Range

DOLBY DIGITAL MODES: 0-15 ms in 5 ms step (S-Delay)

0-5 ms in 1 ms step (C-Delay)

DOLBY PRO LOGIC II MODE: 15-30 ms in 1 ms step (S-Delay)

In the surround modes, the sound from the speakers should be delayed slightly, relative to that from the front speakers.

The optimum delay time will depend on acoustic each surround mode using the DELAY TIME buttons, with the current setting shown in the display.

properties, whether the walls and furnishings reflect or absorb sound, etc.

It is recommended that you try different delay times to obtain the best effect. The delay is digitally synthesized. For the highest sound quality with minimum noise and distortion, the delay time can be set independently for

DYNAMIC RANGE CONTROL

This button controls the compression range of sound track. If the compression is large (DRC = 4/4), the sound effect is retarded to a certain range. As a result, sound effect is not as excited as normal range DRC = 0/4). It is useful when you want to movies at the late night.

zPress DYNAMIC on remote control repeatedly until the desired compression range reached.

Note:

The Dynamic Range Control state will resume to normal if you do not press it after 5 seconds.
