Adjusting Dolby Digital audio

★Digital output during DJ mode is automatically converted

to linear PCM only.

This item allows adjustment of the dynamic range of digital sound. By adjusting the audio DRC (dynamic range compression), large- volume sounds can be attenuated and low-volume sounds can be enhanced for a variety of playback effects. This setting is ef- fective, for example, when it is difficult to hear dialog on a televi- sion program, or when you do not wish to disturb neighbors while watching movies late at night.

¶See P.24 for menu instructions.

	Audio DRC	— Off
	Dolby Digital Out	On
	DTS Out	— Off
	96kHz PCM Out	— 96kHz 3 48kHz
	MPEG Out — MPEG 3 PCM
Dynamic playback at low volume
	Move	SETUP	Exit

Off:

Cancels Audio DRC. Allows maximum audio presence when used with high-fidelity speakers (factory default setting).

On:

Suppresses loud sounds (explosions, etc.) making it easier to understand dialog.

¶Audio DRC is supported only when using Dolby Digital audio.

¶Some discs may produce less effect.

¶Audio DRC is also applied to audio produced from the digital output (coaxial) connectors. In this case, set [Dolby Digital Out] to [Dolby Digital 3 PCM], and set [Digital Out] to [On].

¶The effect produced with Audio DRC differs depending on the speakers used and the volume setting of the AV amplifier. Turn the setting ON/OFF while adjusting your sound volume so as to produce most effective results.
