DYNAMIC RANGE

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.
