low volumes late at night.
• COMP. OFF reproduces the sound track with no
compression.
• COMP. STD reproduces the sound track with the
dynamic range intended by the recording engineer.
• COMP. 0.1 ~ 0.9 allow you to compress the dynamic
range in small steps to achieve the sound you want.

dynamic range.

About the Dynamic Range Compressor
This parameter allows you to compress the dynamic range of the
soundtrack based on the dynamic range information included in
the Dolby Digital signal. "COMP. STD" is standard compression,
but because many sources have only light compression, you may
not notice much difference when using COMP. 0.1~0.9.
Therefore, we recommend using the "COMP. MAX" setting. This
greatly compresses the dynamic range and allows you to view
movies late at night at low volumes. Unlike analog limiters, the
levels are predetermined and it provides a very natural
compression.
