Initial setting : COMP. OFF
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.
• COMP. OFF reproduces the sound track with no
compression.
• COMP. STD reproduces the sound track with the
dynamic range intended by the recording engineer.
• COMP. 0.1 ~ 0.9 allow you to compress the dynamic
range in small steps to achieve the sound you want.
• COMP. MAX provides a dramatic compression of the
dynamic range.
Note
Dynamic range compression does not work with DTS sources.

About the Dynamic Range Compressor
This parameter allows you to compress the dynamic range of the
soundtrack based on the dynamic range information included in
the Dolby Digital signal. “COMP. STD” is standard compression,
but because many sources have only light compression, you may
not notice much difference when using COMP. 0.1~0.9.
Therefore, we recommend using the “COMP. MAX” setting. This
greatly compresses the dynamic range and allows you to view
movies late at night at low volumes. Unlike analog limiters, the
levels are predetermined and it provides a very natural
compression.
Adjusting the bass/treble
The BASS +/– or TREBLE +/– button lets you adjust the
tone (bass or treble) of the front speakers for optimum
sound. You can adjust the tone for each separate sound
field.
1 Start playing a program source encoded with multi
channel surround sound.
2 Press BASS +/– to adjust the bass tone and TREBLE
+/– to adjust the treble tone.
The setting is stored automatically.
You can select a tone level of -6 dB to +6 dB in 2 dB
steps.
