The sound of a WMA or MP3 file is
played with high sound quality. This is
only valid for files with the extension
".wma" or ".mp3".
The effect depends on the file. Try
different settings, and choose the one
providing the good effect.
A surround sound field with a sense
of presence can be created with two
speakers.
When set to On, linear PCM audio sig-
nals of 96 kHz or greater are converted
to 48 kHz.
This makes loud sounds weaker and
weak sounds louder. Change the
setting for example when watching
movies late at night.
This setting only affects Dolby Digital
sound.
The effect depends on the volume
of the connected TV, AV receiver or
amplifier, speakers, etc. Try different
settings, and choose the one provid-
ing the strongest effect.
