Using Cinema Re-Equalization

Depending on the listening mode, you can either turn Re-EQ on or off. Re-EQ (re-equalization) takes the edginess or “brightness” out of your home cinema sound to compensate for the fact that sound mixed for theaters may sound too bright when played back through speakers in the home environment.

Remote cotroller only

On: Select to turn on the re-equalization filter.

Off: Select to turn off the re-equalization filter.

Note:

The Re-EQ function is effective on the Dolby Pro Logic II Surround and Dolby Digital Surround.
