Low Frequency Effect
(L.F.E. XXX dB)
Lets you attenuate the level of the LFE (Low
Frequency Effect) channel output from the sub
woofer without effecting the level of the bass
frequencies sent to the sub woofer from the
front, center or surround channels via the
Dolby Digital or DTS bass redirection
circuitry.
• “0 dB” outputs the full LFE signal at the mix
level determined by the recording engineer.
• To mute the sound of the LFE channel from the
sub woofer, select “OFF”. However, the low
frequency sounds of the front, center, or
surround speakers are output from the sub
woofer according to the settings made for each
speaker in the speaker setup (pages 14–15).
Dynamic range compressor
(
D. RANGE
COMP. XXX)
Lets you compress the dynamic range of the
sound track. This may be useful when you want
to watch movies at low volumes late at night.
We recommend using the “MAX” setting.
• To reproduce the sound track with no
compression, select “OFF”.
• To reproduce the sound track with the dynamic
range intended by the recording engineer, select
“STD”.
• To compress the dynamic range in small steps
to achieve the sound you desire, select “0.1”–
“0.9”.
• To reproduce a dramatic compression of the
dynamic range, select “MAX”.
Effect level (EFFECT)
Lets you adjust the “presence” of the current
surround effect.
