Audio DRC

Settings: High, Medium, Low, Off (default)

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 mate- rial you’re listening to. If the material doesn’t have wide variations in volume, you may not notice much change.

Notes:

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 “Digital Audio Out settings” on page 46).

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