About DCS (Digital Cinema Sound)

Sound fields with DCSmarks use DCS technology.

DCS is the concept name of the surround technology for home theater developed by Sony. DCS uses the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) technology to reproduce the sound characteristics of an actual cinema cutting studio in Hollywood.

When played at home, DCS will create a powerful theater effect that mimics the artistic combination of sound and action as envisioned by the movie director.

Enjoying movies using the 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.

Press CINEMA STUDIO EX A, B or C to select the CINEMA STUDIO EX mode you want.

The selected CINEMA STUDIO EX mode appears in the display.
