Selecting a sound field (Sound Field)

You can select from a variety of sound field modes according to speaker connections or input sources.

  1. Select [Sound Effects] - [Sound Field] from the home menu.
  2. Select the sound field you want.

    ​Sony recommends selecting a sound field labeled [MOVIE] for movies and a sound field labeled [MUSIC] for music.

    For details on each sound field, see “Selectable sound fields and their effects.”

Note

  • The sound field will switch to [Headphone (2ch)] automatically when:
    • headphones are connected to the PHONES jack.
    • BLUETOOTH headphones or BLUETOOTH speakers are connected to the unit.
  • The sound fields for movie or music may not work, depending on the input or the speaker pattern you select, or with audio formats.
  • The unit may play signals at a lower sampling frequency than the actual sampling frequency of the input signals, depending on the audio format.
  • Some speakers or the subwoofer may not output sound, depending on the sound field setting.

Hint

  • You can also use 2CH/MULTI, MOVIE or MUSIC on the remote control or the unit to select a sound field.
  • You can also select [Sound Field] in [Audio Settings] from the home menu.
