Initial Set Up

Dynamic Range Control

This feature makes it possible to enjoy full surround sound effects on Dolby Digital sources even at low volumes. It does this by compressing the dynamic range. Dynamic range is the difference between the loudest and the softest sounds in any given signal. Compressing the range plays sounds so the quieter ones are audible and the louder ones don’t get distorted or become overpowering. This feature only applies to Dolby Digital sources but the MIDNIGHT LISTENING mode accomplishes the same end for a variety of sources (see page 49). If continuing from Bass Peak Level go to step 1. If starting fresh, complete steps 1-3 in “Setting Up for Surround Sound“ (p.29) first.
