Cautions

If you turn off the sound effect, no sound is output from the center speaker, rear speakers, rear center speaker and front effect speakers.

If you turn off the sound effect while a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is being output, the dynamic range of the signal is automati- cally compressed and the sounds of the center and rear speaker channels are mixed and output from the main speakers.

The volume may be greatly reduced when you turn off the sound effect or if you set “12 DYNAMIC RANGE” on the SET MENU to “MIN”. In this case turn on the sound effect.
