Dynamic range control setting mode
Dynamic range is the difference between the loudest and softest sounds in any given signal. The dynamic range
control helps you play back sounds so the quieter sounds are audible yet the louder sounds don’t get distored. It
does this by compressing the dynamic range. When watching a movie at low volume, setting this function
enables low level sounds to be heard more easily but you won’t be jolted by lounder sounds.
• Initial setting is “OFF”.
• When the volume level is increased, set to OFF.
• For listening enjoyment at low volumes, set to “MAX” for maximum dynamic range
compression.
• Dynamic range control is effective only when a Dolby Digital signal is being played back.
Press % or fi to set the dynamic range control
(OFF, MAX, or MID).

Press % or fi to select the coaxial digital input

automatically change to the digital input setting. You can see this in the
DIGITAL/ANALOG indicator on the front of the receiver.

Dual mono setting
The dual mono setting can only be used when listening to Dolby Digital discs that have dual mono software
encoded in them. With this setting you can choose which channel in the dual mono setting you want to listen to.
Thus, it is useful for soundtracks that have one language on one channel and a different language on the other.
Remember you can only use this setting if you have Dolbly Digital software with this feature and want to isolate
one of the channels therein. Otherwise, just ignore this function.
There are two different ways to route the sound in the dual mono setting, one is with Dolby Digital on, the other
with Dolby Digital off. If Dolby Digital is switched on, the ch1 setting will play ch1 through your center speaker.
The ch2 setting will play ch2 though your center speaker and the MIX setting will play both channels through the
center speaker. With Dolby Digital off, the dual mono sound routing is as follows: In the ch1 setting your will
hear channel 1 out of both front speakers. In the ch2 setting you will hear channel 2 out of both speakers. In the
L. c1 R. c2 setting the speakers will play the soundtrack independently of each other. The left front speker will
play channel 1 and the right front speaker will play channel 2. The last setting, MIX, mixes both channels and
plays them out of both speakers .
• The default setting of this feature is L C 1 R C 2.
