Basic Operation
—Continued
With this function you can adjust the volume of each
speaker individually. These adjustments are not saved
and the previous settings will be resumed when the
DTR-8.4 is set to Standby.
Note:
•You cannot select speakers that are set to No or None
on the Speaker Configuration menu (see page 41).
With the Re-EQ function you can correct a soundtrack
whose high-frequency content is too harsh, making it
more suitable for home theater viewing.
This function can be used with the following listening
modes: Mono, Stereo, All Ch St, Dolby Digital, Dolby
Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic II Movie, DTS, DTS-ES,
DTS Neo:6 Cinema, THX Cinema, and THX Surround
EX.
Notes:
• The Re-EQ function can also be set on the onscreen
setup menus (see page 69).
• When the listening mode is THX, the default setting is
On. When the DTR-8.4 is set to Standby, it returns to
the default setting.
• When the listening mode is not THX, the default set-
ting is Off.
With the Late Night function you can reduce the
dynamic range of Dolby Digital material so that you can
still hear quiet parts even when listening at low volume
levels—ideal for watching movies late at night when you
don’t want to disturb anyone.
Notes:
• The Late Night function can also be set on the
onscreen setup menus (see page 69).
• The effect of the Late Night function depends on the
Dolby Digital material that you are playing, and with
some material there will be little or no effect.
• The Late Night function is turned off when the
DTR-8.4 is set to Standby.
