sound or dialog seem difficult to hear properly,
this can help by bringing up the low level
sounds, while controlling high level peaks.

DRC OFF (default) – No dynamic range
adjustment (use when listening at higher
volumes)

DRC MID – Mid setting

DRC HIGH – Dynamic range is reduced
(loud sounds are reduced in volume while
quieter sounds are increased)

Note

and Dimming the display on page 39.
2 The setup menu is exited automatically after 5 minutes of inactivity.
3 • You can’t adjust center/surround when Stereo or Virtual playback is selected (or with stereo sources using the Auto mode).

• The Channel level setting is not available when headphones are connected.
• The speaker volume can be adjusted at any time by pressing

SHIFT+TEST TONE and then using

/ to adjust the channel

levels. The test tone automatically moves from speaker to speaker in the order listed above. You should hear the test tone at the
same volume from each speaker when seated in the main listening position. Press

ENTER when you’re finished.

• Since the subwoofer produces ultra-low frequencies it may seem quieter than it actually is.
