About CINEMA STUDIO EX modes
CINEMA STUDIO EX modes are suitable for
watching motion picture DVDs (etc.), with
multi channel surround effects. You can
reproduce the sound characteristics of Sony
Pictures Entertainment’s dubbing studio in your
home.
The CINEMA STUDIO EX modes consist of
the following three elements.
Virtual Multi Dimension
Creates 5 sets of virtual speakers from a single
pair of actual surround speakers.
Screen Depth Matching
Creates the sensation that the sound is coming
from inside the screen like in theaters.
Cinema Studio Reverberation
Reproduces the type of reverberation found in
theaters.
The CINEMA STUDIO EX modes integrate
these three elements simultaneously.
Tips
The receiver memorizes the last sound field selected
for each program source (Sound Field Link).
Whenever you select a program source, the sound
field that was last applied is automatically applied
again. For example, if you listen to DVD with HALL
as the sound field, change to a different program
source, then return to DVD, HALL will be applied
again.
You can identify the encoding format of DVD
software, etc. by looking at the logo on the package.
: Dolby Digital discs
: Dolby Surround encoded
programs
: DTS Digital Surround encoded programs

sound coming directly from the surround speakers.
