Enjoying Surround Sound
You can take advantage of surround sound
simply by selecting one of the receiver's pre-
programmed sound fields. They bring the
exciting and powerful sound of movie theaters
and concert halls into your home. You can also
customize the sound fields to obtain the sound
you want by changing the surround parameter.
To fully enjoy surround sound, you must
register the number and location of your
speakers. See "Multi channel surround setup"
starting from page 15 to set the speaker
parameters before enjoying surround sound.
Automatically decoding
the input audio signal
Press A.DEC.
"AUTO DEC." appears in the display.
This mode automatically detects the type of
audio signal being input (Dolby Digital, DTS,
or standard 2 channel stereo) and performs the
proper decoding if necessary. This mode
presents the sound as it was recorded/encoded,
without adding any effects (e.g. reverberation).
However, if there are no low frequency signals
(Dolby Digital LFE, etc.) it will generate a low
frequency signal for output to the sub woofer.

About DCS (Digital Cinema Sound)
The sound fields with D C S mark use DCS
technology. When these sound fields are
selected, "Digital Cinema Sound" indicator in
the display lights up.
In collaboration with Sony Pictures
Entertainment, Sony measured the sound
environment of their studios and integrated the
data of the measurement and Sony's own DSP
(Digital Signal Processor) technology to
develop "Digital Cinema Sound". In a home
theater, "Digital Cinema Sound" simulates an
ideal movie theater sound environment based
on the preference of the movie director.
Enjoying movies with Cinema
Studio EX

movie software encoded with multi channel
