soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presenta-

tion possible, thanks to digital audio technology.

However, you may wish to compress the dynamic range

of the audio output (the difference between the loudest

sounds and the quietest ones).Then, you may listen to

a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of

sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.
