Using the Late Night Function (Dolby Digital only)

With the Late Night function, you can reduce the dynamic range of Dolby Digital material so that you can still hear quiet parts even when listening at low volume levels—ideal for watching movies late at night when you don’t want to disturb anyone.

Using the CinemaFILTER

With the CinemaFILTER, you can soften overly bright movie soundtracks, which are typically mixed for repro- duction in a movie theater.

CinemaFILTER can be used with the following listening modes: Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie, Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, DTS, DTS- ES, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, DTS 96/24, DTS+Neo:6, and DTS+Dolby EX.

1Press the [RECEIVER] button,

The effect of the Late Night function depends on the Dolby Digital material that you are playing, and with some material there will be little or no effect.

The Late Night function is set to Off when the AV receiver is set to Standby.
