Audio Adjust (Basic)—Continued
This sub-menu is used to turn on and off the various sound
effects available with the TX-NR801/TX-NR801E.
a. Re-EQ
Re-EQ (re-equalization) takes the edginess or “brightness”
out of your home cinema sound to compensate for the fact
that sound mixed for theaters may sound too bright when
played back through speakers in the home environment.
This can be set to either “On” or “Off.”
You can use the Re-EQ button on the remote controller
for setting “On” or “Off.”
b. Upsampling
Upsampling processes the input digital signal, or the dig-
ital signal converted from an analog input source, and
converts its digital sampling frequency to twice its cur-
rent frequency for an even further detailed sound repro-
duction. This can be set to either “On” or “Off.” When
“On” is selected, the UPSAMPLING indicator lights.
c. Double Bass
The Double Bass function boosts the bass sound by letting
the bass sound of “Front” speakers output also from the sub-
woofer. To enable this function, in the “Speaker Config”
menu, set the “Subwoofer” to “Yes” and “Front” to “Large.”
On: Select to turn on the Double Bass function.
Off: Select to turn off the Double Bass function.
Note:
Double Bass “Off” is the THX preferred setting for accu-
rate bass reproduction.
d. Late Night
The audio for movies made for the cinema have a large
dynamic range; thus, the difference between loud noises
and soft noises is great. To hear the quieter sounds such as
background noises or human conversations, the movie must
be played back at higher volumes. When this setting is set
to “High” or “Low,” the dynamic range of the sound is nar-
rowed down to allow you to hear easily minute sounds at
low volumes. This function is especially useful if you wish
to play a movie at a low volume during the nighttime.
This can be set to either “Off” or “Low,” or “High.”
However, when the TX-NR801/TX-NR801E enters the
standby state, this setting returns to the default setting (“Off”).
Notes:
• The Late Night function is effective only on Dolby
Digital encoded software.
• The depth of the Late Night effect is determined by
Dolby Digital software. With some sources, it may
produce little or no effect.
