Getting Surround Sound from
Stereo Speakers
This player features SRS 3D sound that you can use to
generate a three-dimensional sound image from just two
speakers. Because SRS 3D sound is based on the
characteristics of human hearing, the surround effect
appears remarkably natural. You can use this feature
with stereo or mono sources.

Adjusting the Dynamic Range
of the Audio Soundtrack
Audio DRC stands for Audio Dynamic Range
Compression. When Audio DRC is on, soft sounds such
as dialog can be heard more clearly without making loud
sounds even louder. Select from three levels of
compression depending on how much effect you want.
When Audio DRC is set to [Off], there is no effect on
the audio source.
Make changes to the [Audio DRC] setting in the Setup
screen Audio 2 menu.
