You can select the sound field and adjust the 
effect level, etc. on the “Sound Field Setup” 
screen.
For details on the sound field, see “Enjoying 
Surround Sound” (page 52).

The setup items you can adjust on each menu vary 
depending on the sound field.

 

Select “HD-D.C.S.”, then press 

 or

Select the effect you want, then press 

.

HD-D.C.S. has three different types: 
Theater, Dynamic and Studio. Each type 
has different reflection and reverberation 
sound mixture levels and is optimized to 
match a listener’s room uniqueness, taste 
and mood.
• Dynamic

Want to enjoy the sound effects to the full 
extent, just like at the movie theaters?

 

Dynamic type emphasizes on the 
reflection sound. Without HD-D.C.S., 
many rooms are often somewhat 
reverberant but lack a spacious feeling. 
This type acoustically opens up those 
types of rooms and provides a spacious 
and dynamism feeling equivalent to a 
mastering studio. 

Theater type (default setting) mixes 
reflection and reverberation sound 
creating the characteristics of a mastering 
studio. Additionally, this type mixes in 
frequency characteristics that are often 
found in professional studios and movie 
theaters. It is ideal for watching movies in 
a listening room that has less 
reverberation. 

In Studio type, effects are kept to a 
minimum, while still providing a great 
theater experience. This type provides the 
accuracy of the original recording. 

You can use the following parameters to adjust 
the tonal quality (bass/treble level) of front 
speakers.
• Bass
• Treble

This function does not work when “A. DIRECT” is 
being used.

You can also adjust the front speaker bass and treble 
level with TONE MODE and TONE on the receiver 
(page 9).
