DYNAMIC RANGE
When “LINE OUT” setting is selected, choose this setting
to adjust the range between the softest and loudest levels a
source can produce without distortion. When you set the
dynamic range to FULL, the peak values of the audio will
be minimized, this is great for night time viewing as you
do not have to keep on changing the volume level when
you are listening to louder parts of a movie or musical
piece (i.e. explosions, rock concerts etc.). When you
change the setting to OFF, you will hear the sound as it
was recorded when it was being produced. This means
that some parts of a musical piece or movie might be
much louder then other parts depending on the musical
piece or movie.
Note:
This option is only available when the DOWNMIX option
is set to OFF.
