Audio DRC

• Default setting: Off

When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low volume, it’s easy to lose the quieter sounds completely—including some of the dialog. Switching Audio DRC (Dynamic Range Control) to On can help by bringing up the quieter sounds, while controlling loud peaks.

How much of a difference you hear depends on the material you’re listening to. If the material doesn’t have wide variations in volume, you may not notice much change.

1Press SETUP and select ‘Audio Set- tings’ from the on-screen display.

2 Highlight Audio DRC, then use the

/ buttons (cursor left/right) to change to ‘On’ or ‘Off’, as required.

		Audio Settings	1/ 1

		Audio DRC	Off

		Virtual Surround	Off
		Channel Level	Fix

3Press ENTER to make the setting and exit the Audio Settings screen.

•Audio DRC is only effective with Dolby Digital audio sources.

•Audio DRC is only effective through the digital output when Digital Out is set to On, and Dolby Digital Out is set to Dolby Digital > PCM. See page 51.

•The effect of Audio DRC depends on your speakers and AV receiver settings.
