x D. RANGE (Dynamic range
compressor)
Lets you compress the dynamic range of the
sound track. This may be useful when you
want to watch movies at low volumes late at
night. Dynamic range compression is possible
with Dolby Digital sources only.
•COMP. MAX
The dynamic range is compressed
dramatically.
• COMP. STD
The dynamic range is compressed as
intended by the recording engineer.
•COMP. AUTO
The dynamic range is compressed
automatically.
• COMP. OFF
The dynamic range is not compressed.
Tip
Dynamic range compressor lets you compress the
dynamic range of the soundtrack based on the
dynamic range information included in the Dolby
Digital signal.
“COMP. STD” is the standard setting, but it only
enacts light compression. Therefore, we recommend
using the “COMP. MAX” setting. This greatly
compresses the dynamic range and lets you view
movies late at night at low volumes. Unlike analog
limiters, the levels are predetermined and provide a
very natural compression.

x FRT SP (Front speakers)
• LARGE
If you connect large speakers that will
effectively reproduce bass frequencies,
select “LARGE”. Normally, select
“LARGE”. However, if you have selected a
speaker pattern without subwoofer, the front
speakers are automatically set to “LARGE”.
•SMALL
If the sound is distorted, or you feel a lack of
surround effects when using multi channel
surround sound, select “SMALL” to activate
the bass redirection circuitry and output the
front channel bass frequencies from the
subwoofer. When the front speakers are set
to “SMALL”, the center and surround
speakers are also automatically set to
“SMALL”.
