Surround parameters (2)

D.COMP. (Dynamic Range Compression):

This parameter adjusts the dynamic range of the Dolby Digital sound. When listening with the volume turned relatively low, at night for example, set this to the “HI” side to lower the peak of the sound and amplify the quieter sounds, narrowing the dynamic range and making the sound easier to listen to. Set to “OFF” to turn this function off.
