About Audyssey Dynamic Surround Expansion (DSX)
Audyssey DSX is a scalable surround expansion system that adds new 
channels  to  improve  the  surround  impression.  Based  on  research  in 
human hearing DSX adds a pair of Wide channels in the front because 
that  information  is  critical  in  the  rendering  of  a  realistic  soundstage. 
DSX then adds a pair of Height channels above the main front channels 
to reproduce  the  next most important  acoustical and  perceptual cues 
related to soundstage depth. In addition to creating these new channels, 
DSX applies Surround Envelopment Processing  to  enhance  the blend 
between the front and side/back surround channels. The result is a much 
more seamless and enveloping home theater experience.

About Dynamic Volume
Audyssey  Dynamic Volume™  solves  the  problem  of  large  variations in 
volume level between television programs, commercials, and between 
the soft and loud passages of movies.
Audyssey  Dynamic  EQ™  is  integrated  into  Dynamic  Volume  so  that 
as  the  playback  volume  is  adjusted  automatically,  the  perceived  bass 
response, tonal balance, surround impression, and dialog clarity remain 
the same.

much louder and softer respectively than average sounds.
 Day  :  Low  setting  provides  the  least  adjustments  to  the  loudest  and 
softest of sounds.
 Can be set when “Dynamic Volume” is set to “ON”.
