For all Dolby Digital (AC-3) and DTS Modes, you can opt to alter the setting for Dynamic Range, which
when set to either DYNAMIC MID (Medium) or DYNAMIC MIN (Minimum), causes for some compres-
sion of the sound field. The Out of the Box setting for Dynamic Range is set to maximum (DYNAMIC
MAX).
The ability to lower the Dynamic Range of these modes in essence, narrows the liveliness of the home
theater system. The bangs and booms are not as boomy when selecting either the middle or mini-
mum position. For some theaters, where the sound is too lively, selecting an alternate setting other
than Maximum might prove worthwhile. To alter the Dynamic Range setting:
1 Turn the Mode knob clockwise until the display’s second line reads SETUP MENU and press
the Mode knob.
2 The display’s second line will now read DYNAMIC RNGE and press the Mode knob.
3 Turn the Mode knob to select between DYNAMIC MAX, MID, or MIN. To continue with other
setup menu features, press the Mode knob. To completely exit the setup menu, turn any
knob other than the Mode knob.
