Midnight mode (Dolby Digital mode only)
When watching movies at night , you might not be able to raise the
volume as loud as normal. Midnight mode compresses the dynamic
range of previously specified parts of the Dolby Digital sound track (like
scenes with sudden increases in volume) to minimize the difference in
volume between the specified and non-specified parts. This makes it
easy to hear all of the sound track, even when listening at low volumes.

display.
• This can be selected only if CD/DVD, DVD/6CH or VIDEO 2 is
selected as the source and the listen mode is set to “DOLBY
