Range
This feature compresses the dynamic range (quietest sound to loudest sound) of a
disc's soundtrack. For example, action scenes might be very loud, while
whispered dialog is quiet. The Range feature evens out the range of the volume
by making loud sounds quieter and soft sounds louder. The Range option is
always on. You can adjust the dynamic range with the Range option.
