more structure and firmer feel), or "Short" (gives the sound
a feeling of a quick start and moving forward). The setting
can be separately set to each input selector. This can be
set when the sampling frequency is 44.1 kHz or more.

You can increase the dialog portion of the audio in 1 dB
steps up to 6 dB so that you can make dialog easier to
hear over background noise.
• This cannot be set for content other than DTS:X.
• The effect may not be selectable with some content.
Dialog Enhancement :
By adjusting the localization of the center elements, you
can make it easier to hear dialog in movies or give more
