Expert Setup

These settings are more advanced. Some could add depth or listenability to your sound (like the Dynamic Range Control) and others are for your convenience (like the Function Rename). You can decide if you want to make these settings or not. They are not crucial to good surround sound. You only need to make these settings once (unless you change the placement of your current speaker system, add new speakers or components to your system, etc.). These setup operations use your TV to display the settings and choices so be sure your TV and amplifier are properly hooked up.
