Alternatively, you could pressing enter to exit the menu and turn THX on (in this example).

Similarly, you can

adjust the relative volume of the center, rear, and sub channels

toggle your sub on and off (with your front L&R speakers tempo- rarily changing to “full range” when the subwoofer is “off”)

adjust the left/right balance

toggle late night AC-3 compression on and off, and

cycle through the available display intensities as you would from the front panel display intensity button.
