Advanced Sound Control

Dolby 3 Stereo

Night Mode

By using Dynamic Range Control technology, you can enjoy enhanced Dolby Digital sound quality at night without interrupting your roommates or neighbors.

Night Mode will compress the difference between normal voices and sounds such as explosions, while still enjoying a Dolby Digital enable component (DVD, SAT). Night Mode can be activated by pressing the NIGHT button on the remote control. DRC OFF (Default) appears on the display. While DRC OFF (Default) is still on the display, continue to press the NIGHT button to toggle and select the desired night mode. There are three modes (DRC OFF, SOFT, ON) for you to choose the extents of compression.

Listening

Zone

Stereo

The Stereo mode uses the two main channel outputs from the front speakers. Use this mode if you have connected the front speakers only.

DSP (Digital Sound Processor)

These digital sound effects resemble sounds in a real environment such as (DISCO / STADIUM / THEATER / JAZZ CLUB / ARENA). DSP automatically converts analog audio signals to digital ones which enables you to adjust the sound without degrading the sound quality. Different modes will give you different feels of size and types of listening environment.

NOTE

Night mode is available only with Dolby Digital playback.

Dynamic Bass Amplified System (dBas)

With “Dynamic Bass Amplified System” (dBas), the discrete amplifier is located in the receiver so the subwoofer keeps the power needed to reproduce powerful effects.

4 settings are available: SOFT, BALANCED, STRONG and

POWERFUL.

Press the SUBWOOFER button to toggle the subwoofer (dBas) effects level according to your needs.
