Changing the Speaker Setting (continued)
Dynamic range setting
DVD discs have a wider dynamic range (sound volume range) than existing VHS vid-
eotapes or CD discs. If they are played in home systems, there may be too much
difference between the loud and quiet sounds. Therefore, if the volume is set so that
the quiet sounds can be heard clearly, the loud sounds may be far too loud.
On the other hand, if the volume is set so that the loud sounds are not too loud, you
may not be able to hear the quiet sounds. Three settings are available to control the
dynamic range easily.
1 Press the MENU button repeatedly to select “D-RANGE”.
2 Within 8 seconds, press the ITEM button.
3 Within 8 seconds, press the SET UP (
WW
WW
W
or
XX
XX
X
) button to select
“MAX”, “STD” or “MIN”.
MAX: This setting does not compress the dynamic range of the Dolby digital
signal, allowing you to enjoy the full, powerful sound of Dolby encoded
digital signals.
STD: This setting compresses the dynamic range, and may produce a more
appropriate volume range for home use.
MIN: This setting compresses the dynamic range, allowing you to enjoy mov-
ies at a lower volume.

Test tone
You can check (and adjust) the speaker level by listening to the sound output from
each speaker individually in the actual listening position in the room.
The speaker level can be adjusted using the remote control.
1 Press the MENU button repeatedly to select “TEST”.
2 Within 8 seconds, press the ITEM button.
The test tone will be heard from each speaker, in order, at about 5-second
intervals.

When the test tone is being output, the indicator for that speaker will flash.
The test tone will be heard until the current menu selection is changed by
pressing the MENU button again, or by selecting some other function.
3 To adjust the speaker level whilst the test tone is being output
from a particular speaker, press the SET UP (

) button.
The speaker level can be adjusted within a range of +10dB to –10dB at 1dB
intervals.
Notes:
If “NO” is selected for any individual speaker’s size setting (page 28), the test tone
will not be heard from that speaker.
Note that the front left and front right speaker levels cannot be adjusted using this
method.
If the subwoofer on a front speaker is set to “EXT” in the speaker size setting proce-
dure, no sound is emitted from it.
