MOVIE/MUSIC
Dolby Pro LogicII produces five full-bandwidth
output channels from two-channel sources. This
is done using an advanced, high-purity matrix
surround decoder that extracts the spatial
properties of the original recording without
adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.
x Neo:6 CINEMA
Performs the DTS Neo:6 Cinema mode
decoding.
x Neo:6 MUSIC
Performs the DTS Neo:6 Music mode decoding.
This setting is ideal for standard stereo sources,
such as CDs.
Notes
• When the input signal is a multi-channel source, PRO
LOGIC, PRO LOGIC II MOVIE/MUSIC, and Neo:6
Cinema/Music are cancelled and the multi channel
source is output directly.
• Neo:6 Cinema/Music mode decoding is not available
for DTS 2channel signal.
• This system is not compatible with the DTS 96/24
decoding function. When you play the DTS 96/24
disc, the system plays it as a normal disc.

About DCS (Digital Cinema Sound)
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.” “Digital
Cinema Sound” simulates in a home theater an
ideal movie theater sound environment based on
the preference of the movie director.
x C. ST. EX A (Cinema Studio EX A)
Reproduces the sound characteristics of the
Sony Pictures Entertainment “Cary Grant
Theater” cinema production studio. This is a
