Cinema Studio EX is the integrated mode which
operates these elements simultaneously.
Notes
• The virtual speaker effect may cause increased noise
in the playback signal.
• When listening with sound fields that employ virtual
speakers, you will not be able to hear any sound
coming directly from the surround speakers.

concert hall.

When using headphones
x HP. THEATER (HEADPHONE THEATER)
This mode is very effective with 5.1 ch discrete
signal sources like Dolby Digital and DTS.
x HP. [2CH] (HEADPHONE 2CH)
This mode outputs the sound from the
headphone L/R. Standard 2 channel (stereo)
sources completely bypass the sound field
processing. Multi channel surround formats are
downmixed to two channels.
To turn the surround effect off
Press A.F.D. on the remote repeatedly until
“A.F.D AUTO” appears in the front panel
display, or press 2CH on the remote to display
“2CH STEREO.”
Notes
• This function is unavailable when playing Super
Audio CDs.
• When you play a Super Audio CD (Direct Stream
Digital), the sound field changes to “AUTO
FORMAT DIRECT AUTO” automatically.
• For PCM96 kHz sources, 2CH, A.F.D. and MODE is
not available.
Tips
• When you want to output the TV sound or stereo
sound of a 2 channel source from the 7 speakers,
select any sound field other than “AUTO FORMAT
DIRECT AUTO” or “2CH STEREO.”
• Whenever you select a function such as DVD or
TUNER, the sound field that was last applied to that
function is automatically applied again. For example,
if you listen to DVD with HALL as the sound field,
then change to another function, and then return to
DVD, HALL will be applied again. With the tuner,
sound fields are memorized separately for all preset
stations.
• You can identify the encoding format of program
software by looking at its packaging.
