STR-DH750/STR-DH550
Movie mode
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 into your home.
HD-D.C.S.:
HD Digital Cinema Sound (HD-D.C.S.) is Sony's new innovative home theater technology using the latest
acoustic and digital signal processing technologies. It is based on the precise response measurement data of a
mastering studio.
With this mode, you can enjoy Blu-ray and DVD movies at home with not only a high-quality of sound but also
the best sound ambience, just as the movie's sound engineer intended in the mastering process.
Dynamic: This setting is suitable for an environment which is reverberant but lacks a spacious feel (where
sound absorption is not sufficient). It emphasizes the reflection of sound and reproduces the sound of a
large, classic movie theater. This emphasizes the spacious feel of a dubbing theater and creates a unique
acoustic field.
Theater: This setting is suitable for a general living room. It reproduces the reverberation of sound just like in
a movie theater (dubbing theater). It is most appropriate for watching content recorded on a Blu-ray Disc
when you want the atmosphere of a movie theater.
Studio: This setting is suitable for a living room with the appropriate sound devices. It reproduces the
reverberation of sound provided when a theatrical sound source is remixed for a Blu-ray Disc to a volume
level suitable for home use. The level of reflection and reverberation of sound is kept to a minimum, while
dialogues and surround effects are reproduced vividly.
PLII Movie (PLII MV):
Performs Dolby Pro Logic II Movie mode decoding. This setting is ideal for movies encoded in Dolby Surround.
In addition, this mode can reproduce sound in 5.1-channel format when watching videos of overdubbed or old
movies.
PLIIx Movie (PLIIX MV) (for STR-DH750 only):
Performs Dolby Pro Logic IIx Movie mode decoding. This setting expands Dolby Pro Logic II Movie or Dolby
Digital 5.1 to 7.1 discrete movie channels.
Neo:6 Cinema (NEO6 CIN) (for STR-DH750 only):
Performs DTS Neo:6 Cinema mode decoding. Sources recorded in 2-channel format are enhanced up to 7
channels.
