Other parameters of Speaker
settings menu
x Crossover Freq
(Speaker crossover frequency)
Lets you set the bass crossover frequency of
speakers that has been set to "SMALL" in the
Speaker settings menu. Measured speaker
crossover frequency is set for each speaker
after the Auto Calibration.
The adjusted value is set for each speaker
when you adjust the speaker crossover
frequency using "Crossover Freq" after the
Auto Calibration.
x D.Range Comp
(Dynamic range compressor)
Lets you compress the dynamic range of the
soundtrack. 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.
• MAX
The dynamic range is compressed
dramatically.
• STD
The dynamic range is compressed as
intended by the recording engineer.
• AUTO
The dynamic range is applied automatically
with Dolby TrueHD source or other source
is set to "OFF".
• OFF
The dynamic range is not compressed.
Tips
• Dynamic range compressor lets you compress the
dynamic range of the soundtrack based on the
dynamic range information included in the Dolby
Digital signal.
• "STD" is the standard setting, but it only enacts
light compression. Therefore, we recommend
using the "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.
