About Cinema Studio EX
Cinema Studio EX consists of the following
three elements.
• Virtual Multi Dimension
Creates 5 sets of virtual speakers
surrounding the listener from a single pair of
actual surround speakers.
• Screen Depth Matching
In a movie theater, sound seems to come
from inside the image reflected on the movie
screen. This element creates the same
sensation in your listening room by shifting
the sound of the front speakers “into” the
screen.
• Cinema Studio Reverberation
Reproduces the reverberations peculiar to a
movie theater.
Cinema Studio EX is the integrated mode
which operates these elements simultaneously.
Notes
• The effects provided by the virtual speakers may
cause increased noise in the playback signal.
• When listening with sound fields that employ the
virtual speakers, you will not be able to hear any
sound coming directly from the surround speakers.
Selecting a sound field (continued) x HALL
Reproduces the acoustics of a rectangular
concert hall.
x JAZZ (Jazz Club)
Reproduces the acoustics of a jazz club.
x CONCERT (Live Concert)
Reproduces the acoustics of a 300-seat live
house.
To turn the surround effect off
Press A.F.D. to select “A.F.D. AUTO” or
press SOUND FIELD +/– repeatedly to select
“2CH ST.”.
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.
