Digital Cinema Sound
The ultimate reference for
theater performance is where your movie was born —
the dubbing stage. Directors mix, evaluate and approve
the movie's final surround sound audio track before it
arrives in a theater to be viewed. The dubbing stage is
the movie's final proving ground for the director.
Bringing the dubbing stage into your home represents
the pinnacle in realistic movie sound, as the director
intended it. Sony engineers, in collaboration with Sony
Pictures Entertainment have captured three distinct dub-
bing stages to create Digital Cinema Sound processing.
This recreation of dubbing stages in Digital Cinema
Sound represents the ideal movie theater sound environ-
ment based on the preference of movie directors!
