■Cinema Equalizer
The sound from movie sources recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS or other formats emphasizes correction of components that deteriorate in the high-frequency range due to the movie screen. If this sound is reproduced in the home theater without correction, the high-frequency range is too strong. The AVR-881 features a Cinema Equalizer to correct these high-frequency components so that the sound is clearer and easier to listen to. (For Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic, and DTS surround modes)
