Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
With the DVD*
1
format, you can hear a program’s
soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presenta-
tion possible, thanks to digital audio technology.
However, you may wish to compress the dynamic range
of the audio output (the difference between the loudest
sounds and the quietest ones). Then, you may listen to
a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of
sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.
