What it does
Some monitors have a slight delay when showing video, so
the soundtrack will be slightly out of sync with the picture.
By adding a bit of delay, you can adjust the sound to match
the presentation of the video.
Allows you to hear effective surround sound of movies at
low volumes.
Used to get good bass and treble from music sources at
low volumes.
When audio data is removed during the compression
process, sound quality often suffers from an uneven sound
image. The Sound Retriever feature employs new DSP
technology that helps bring CD quality sound back to
compressed 2-channel audio by restoring sound pressure
and smoothing jagged artifacts left over after
compression.
Specifies how dual mono encoded Dolby Digital
soundtracks should be played.
Adjusts the level of dynamic range for movie soundtracks
optimized for Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby
TrueHD, DTS-HD and DTS-HD Master Audio (you may
need to use this feature when listening to surround sound
at low volumes).
Some Dolby Digital and DTS audio sources include ultra-
low bass tones. Set the LFE attenuator as necessary to
prevent the ultra-low bass tones from distorting the sound
from the speakers.
The LFE is not limited when set to 0 dB, which is the
recommended value. When set to –15 dB, the LFE is
limited by the respective degree. When OFF is selected, no
sound is output from the LFE channel.
Brings out detail in SACDs by maximizing the dynamic
range (during digital processing).
Specifies the routing of the HDMI audio signal out of this
receiver (amp) or through to a TV or flat panel TV. When
THRU is selected, no sound is output from this receiver.
