Default setting: Off

When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low volume, it’s
easy to lose the quieter sounds completely—including
some of the dialog.
Switching Audio DRC (Dynamic Range Control) to On
can help by bringing up the quieter sounds, while con-
trolling loud peaks.
How much of a difference you hear depends on the mate-
rial you’re listening to. If the material doesn’t have wide
variations in volume, you may not notice much change.
Notes:
Audio DRC is only effective with Dolby Digital audio
sources.
Audio DRC is only effective through the digital output
when “Digital Out” (see page 44) is set to “On”, and
“Dolby Digital Out” (see page 44) is set to “Dolby
Digital > PCM”.
The effect of Audio DRC depends on your speakers
and AV receiver settings.
