Audio DRC

• Default setting: Off
When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low
volume, it's easy to lose the quieter sounds
completely—including some of the dialog.
Switching Audio DRC (Dynamic Range
Control) to On can help by bringing up the
quieter sounds, while controlling loud peaks.
How much of a difference you hear depends
on the material you're listening to. If the
material doesn't have wide variations in
volume, you may not notice much change.
1 Press SETUP and select 'Audio Set-
tings' from the on-screen display.

• Audio DRC is only effective with Dolby
Digital audio sources.
• Audio DRC is only effective through the
digital output when Digital Out is set to
On, and Dolby Digital Out is set to
Dolby Digital > PCM. See page 39.
• The effect of Audio DRC depends on
your speakers and AV receiver settings.
Virtual Surround
• Default setting: Off
Switch on Virtual surround to enjoy surround
sound effects from just two speakers.
When you play a Dolby Digital soundtrack,
Virtual Dolby Digital, which uses
TruSurround technology from SRS, produces
a deep, realistic 3D soundspace from a pair
of stereo speakers.
