About DCS (Digital Cinema
Sound)
In collaboration with Sony Pictures
Entertainment, Sony measured the sound
environment of their studios and integrated the
data of the measurement and Sony’s own DSP
(Digital Signal Processor) technology to
develop “Digital Cinema Sound.” “Digital
Cinema Sound” simulates in a home theatre an
ideal movie theatre sound environment based on
the preference of the movie director.

About Cinema Studio EX
Cinema Studio EX is ideal for enjoying the

Cinema Studio EX consists of the following
three elements.

the front speakers “into” the screen.
