Subwoofer distance setting

• Default setting: 10 ft.

Like your speakers, you should set the distance of the subwoofer accurately to hear sounds from all speakers at the same time.

If Dolby Digital mode is switched on, you will hear the channel you have selected (either ch1 or ch2) through your center speaker. With Dolby Digital mode off, or if you don’t have a center speaker, you will hear the channel you have selected through both front speakers. In the L ch 1.R ch2 setting, the left front speaker will play channel 1 and the right front speaker will play channel 2.

• Use or to cycle through the possible dual mono settings.

Dynamic range control setting

• Default setting: OFF

• Use or to set the dynamic range control (OFF, MAX, or MID).

Dynamic range control is effective only when a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is being played back.
