D-Range Control
This feature makes it possible to enjoy full surround sound effects on Dolby Digital sources even at low volumes. It
does this by compressing the dynamic range. Dynamic range is the difference between the loudest and the softest
sounds in any given signal. Compressing the range plays sounds so the quieter ones are audible and the louder ones
don’t get distorted or become overpowering. This feature only applies to Dolby Digital sources but the MIDNIGHT
LISTENING mode accomplishes the same end for a variety of sources (see p.38). If continuing from BASS PEAK LEVEL
MANAGER go to step 1. If starting fresh, complete steps 1-3 in “Setting Up for Surround Sound“ (p.24) first.
• The default setting is OFF.
• If listening at loud volumes we recommend turning the
Dynamic Range Control OFF.
