However, this unit lets you to place the center speaker up to 1.5 meters (5 feet) closer (B) and the rear speakers up to 4.5 meters (15 feet) closer (C) to the listening position. The front speakers can be placed from 1.0 to 12.0 meters (3 to 40 feet) from the listening position (A).

xLFE

LFE *****: (0 dB)

Level of the LFE (Low Frequency Effect) channel output.

Range: OFF, –20 dB to 0 dB, 1 dB steps “OFF” cuts the sound of the LFE channel. However, the low frequency sound of the speakers are output from the sub woofer. “–20 dB” to “0 dB” settings allow you to attenuate the LFE signal. “0 dB” outputs the full LFE signal at the mix level determined by the recording engineer.

xD.COMP.

D.COMP.: (STD)

Dynamic range compression. Range: OFF, 0.1 to 0.9, STD, MAX

“OFF” does not compress the dynamic range. “0.1” to “0.9” settings allow you to compress the dynamic range in small steps. “STD” reproduces the sound track with the dynamic range intended by the recording engineer. “MAX” provides a great compression of the dynamic range.

x T.TONE (MHC-DP1000D only)

T.TONE: (OFF) Test tone output. Range: OFF, ON

“ON” outputs the test tone from each speaker in sequence. Adjust the LEVEL and BALANCE parameters so that the volume level of the test tone from each speaker sounds the same using the remote from your listening position. Select “OFF” to turn off the test tone.

Notes

When you adjust the level of the subwoofer, set T.TONE to “OFF”.

Dynamic range compression is possible with Dolby Digital sources only.

If you press SPEAKER LEVEL while adjusting parameters using OSD, the OSD turns off.
