Default Setting: FULL

In some listening situations, it may be inconvenient to allow the sound to become very loud, such as late at night. The Dolby Digital Setup menu offers the facility to compress the dynamic range of the soundtrack so that the loudest sounds become quieter, while the low-level detail and content of quiet passages is retained.

Select dynamic range compression to fit your individual listening situation. The variable range is from FULL, 7/8 to 1/8, or OFF.

•OFF: Audio with uncompressed dynamic range.

•7/8~1/8: Audio with partially compressed dynamic range.

•FULL: Audio with fully compressed dynamic range.

Note

•The Dual Mono and Dynamic Range settings can only be used with Dolby Digital programs.
