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 rear 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 rear speakers.
Selecting other sound fields
Press MODE on the receiver or SOUND
FIELD on the remote repeatedly until the
