When the menu “Dynamic EQ” setting is “On”, it is not possible to do
“Tone Control” (vpage115) adjustment.
Reference Level Offset
Audyssey Dynamic EQ
®
is
referenced to the standard
film mix level. It makes
adjustments to maintain
the reference response
and surround envelopment
when the volume is turned
down from 0 dB. However,
film reference level is not
always used in music or
other non-film content.
Dynamic EQ Reference
Level Offset provides three
offsets from the film level
reference (5 dB, 10 dB, and
15 dB) that can be selected
when the mix level of the
content is not within the
standard. Recommended
setting levels are shown at
right.
0dB (Film Ref) : This is the default setting and should be used when
listening to movies.
5dB : Select this setting for content that has a very wide dynamic range,
such as classical music.
10dB : Select this setting for jazz or other music that has a wider dynamic
range. This setting should also be selected for TV content as that is usually
mixed at 10 dB below film reference.
15dB : Select this setting for pop/rock music or other program material
that is mixed at very high listening levels and has a compressed dynamic
range.
Setting is enabled when “Dynamic EQ” is “On” (vpage117).
Dynamic Volume
Solve the problem of large
variations in volume level
between TV, movies and
other content (between
quiet passages and
loud passages, etc.) by
automatically adjusting to
the user’s preferred volume
setting.
Heavy : Most adjustment to softest and loudest sounds.
Medium : Medium adjustment to loudest and softest sound.
Light : Least adjustment to loudest and softest sounds.
Off : Do not use “Dynamic Volume”.
• is displayed when set to “Heavy”, “Medium” or “Light”.

About Audyssey Dynamic Surround Expansion (A-DSX)
Audyssey DSX
®
is a scalable system that adds new speakers to
improve surround impression.
Starting with a 5.1 system Audyssey DSX
®
first adds Wide channels
for the biggest impact on envelopment. Research in human hearing has
proven that information from the Wide channels is much more critical
in the presentation of a realistic soundstage than the Back Surround
channels found in traditional 7.1 systems. Audyssey DSX
®
then
creates a pair of Height channels to reproduce the next most important
acoustical and perceptual cues. In addition to these new Wide and
Height channels, Audyssey DSX
®
applies Surround Envelopment
Processing to enhance the blend between the front and surround
channels.
Stage Width
Adjust sound stage width
when using front wide
speakers.
