■ Audio DRC
The Audio DRC (Dynamic Range Control) function

which is ideal for watching movies late at night when

sources.
•With some discs, Audio DRC may have little or no
effect.

output signals when the Digital Out setting is set
to On and the Dolby Digital Out setting is set to
Dolby Digital > PCM. See page 52 for details on
the digital audio output settings.

output from the HDMI output, with the same
restrictions as above.

Video disc, depending on the audio format, the center
channel may be too quiet and difficult to hear. With
the Dialog function, you can make the dialog louder
and easier to hear.
•High, Medium, Low, Off (default).
Notes:
•When using the Dialog function, depending on
the source material, the dialog may distort, in
which case you should select a lower setting.
•The Dialog function also applies to digital output
signals that have been converted to 2-channel
PCM. See page 52 for details on the digital audio
output settings.
