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.
