2. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The unit was required to pass a rigorous series
of quality and performance tests, in addition to
incorporating the technologies explained above, in
order to be THX certifi ed.
THX requirements cover every aspect of performance
including pre-amplifier and power amplifier
performance and operation, and hundreds of other
parameters in both the digital and analog domain.
Movies which have been encoded in Dolby Digital,
DTS, Dolby Pro Logic, stereo and Mono will all
benefi t from the THX mode when being viewed.
The THX mode should only be activated when
watching movies which were originally produced for
a movie theater environment.
THX need not be activated for music, movies
made especially for TV, or shows such as sports
programming, talk shows, etc.
This is because they were originally mixed for a small
room environment.
THX and Select 2 are trademarks of THX Ltd. THX
may be registered in some jurisdictions. Surround
EX is a trademark of Dolby Laboratories. Used with
permission.
THX® is an exclusive set of standards and technologies
established by the world-renowned fi lm production
company, Lucasfi lm Ltd. THX resulted from George
Lucas’ desire to reproduce the movie soundtrack as
faithfully as possible both in the movie theater and in
the home theater.
THX engineers developed patented technologies to
accurately translate the sound from a movie theater
environment into the home, correcting the tonal and
spatial errors that occur.
When the THX mode of the unit is on, three distinct
THX technologies are automatically added:
Re-Equalization-restores the correct tonal balance
for watching a movie in a home environment.
These sounds are otherwise mixed to be brighter
for a large movie theater. Re-EQ compensates for
this and prevents the soundtracks from being overly
bright and harsh when played in a home theater.
Timbre Matching-fi lters the information going to the
surround speakers so they more closely match the
tonal characteristics of the sound coming from the
front speakers.
This ensures seamless panning between the front
and surround speakers.
Adaptive Decorrelation-slightly changes one surround
channel’s time and phase relationship with respect to
the other surround channel.
This expands the listening position and creates with
only two surround speakers the same spacious
surround experience as in a movie theater with
multiple surround speakers.
THX Surround EX—Dolby DIgital Surround EX is a
joint development of Dolby Laboratories and THX Ltd.
In a movie theater, fi lm soundtracks that have been
encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology
are able to reproduce an extra channel which has
been added during the mixing of the program. This
channel, called Surround Back, places sounds
behind the listener in addition to the currently
available front left, front center, front right, surround
right, surround left and subwoofer channels. This
additional channel provides the opportunity for more
detailed imaging behind the listener and brings more
depth, spacious ambience and sound localization
than ever before.
Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital
Surround EX technology, when released into the
home consumer market may exhibit wording to that
effect on the packaging. A list of movies created
using this technology can be found on the Dolby
web site at www.dolby.com. A list of available DVD
software titles encoded with this technology an be
found at www.thx.com.
5
Only receiver and controller products bearing the
THX Surround EX logo, when in the THX Surround
EX mode, faithfully reproduce this new technology
in the home. This product may also engage the
THX Surround EX mode during the playback of 5.1
channel material that is not Dolby Digital Surround
EX eocnded. In such case, the information delivered
to the Surround Back channel will be program
dependent and may or may not be very pleasing
depending on the particular soundtrack and the
tastes of the individual listener.
“SURROUND EX™” is a trademark of Dolby
Laboratories. Used under authorization.
THX Select2
Before any home theater component can be THX
Select2 certified, it must pass a rigorous series
of quality and performance tests. Only then can a
product feature the THX Select2 logo, which is your
guarantee that the Home Theater products you
purchase will give you superb performance for many
years to come. THX Select2 requirements defi ne
hundreds of parameters, including power amplifi er
performance, and pre-amplifier performance and
operation for both digital and analog domains. THX
Select2 receivers also feature proprietary THX
technologies (e.g., THX Mode) which accurately
translate movie soundtracks for home theater
playback.
Neural SurroundTM, THX® Technologies has been
chosen as the offi cial surround sound broadcast
format for XM Satellite Radio’s “XM HD Surround”
and other leading FM/HD radio stations in the USA
and worldwide. Neural Surround, THX Technologies
delivers the rich envelopment and discrete image
detail of surround sound in a format 100% compatible
with stereo.
Neural Surround, THX Technologies draws the brain’s
attention to sonic details in musical instruments,
vocals and ambience that are typically masked by
other playback systems. This allows the listener
to fully experience the richness and subtleties in
recorded performance as never before for both
surround encoded material and regular stereo
material such as CDs or digital media players. Neural
Surround, THX Technologies is enabling the second
surround sound revolution, bringing surround directly
to your ears!

DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels
of discrete digital audio into home theater systems.
DTS brings you premium quality discrete multichannel
digital sound to both movies and music.
DTS is a multichannel sound system designed to
create full range digital sound reproduction.
The no compromise DTS digital process sets the
standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering
an exact copy of the studio master recordings to
neighborhood and home theaters.
Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as
the moviemaker intended.
DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or
music on of DVD’s, LD’s, and CD’s.
• dts Neo:6
®
The advantages of discrete multichannel systems
over matrix are well known.
But even in homes equipped for discrete multichannel,
there remains a need for high-quality matrix decoding.
This is because of the large library of matrix surround
motion pictures available on disc and on VHS tape;
and analog television broadcasts.
The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center
channel and a mono surround channel from twochannel matrix stereo material. It is better than a
simple matrix in that it includes steering logic to
improve separation, but because of its mono, bandlimited surround it can be disappointing to users
accustomed to discrete multichannel.
6
Neo:6 offers several important improvements as
follow,
• Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of
matrix decoding from stereo matrix material. Users
with 6.1 and 5.1 systems will derive six and fi ve
separate channels, respectively, corresponding to
the standard home-theater speaker layouts.
• Neo:6 technology allows various sound elements
within a channel or channels to be steered
separately, and in a way which follows naturally
from the original presentation.
• Neo:6 offers a music mode to expand stereo
nonmatrix recordings into the fi ve- or six-channel
layout, in a way which does not diminish the subtlety
and integrity of the original stereo recording.
DTS 96/24 offers the following:
1. Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24
master.
2. Full backward compatibility with all existing
decoders. (Existing decoders will output a 48 kHz
signal)
3. No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried
on DVD-video, or in the video zone of DVD-audio,
accessible to all DVD players.
4. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality fullmotion video, for music programs and motion
picture soundtracks on DVD-video.
• dts Digital Surround ES
®
DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multichannel
digital signal format developed by Digital Theater
Systems Inc. While offering high compatibility with
the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTSES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360degree surround impression and space expression
thanks to further expanded surround signals. This
format has been used professionally in movie
theaters since 1999.
In addition to the 5.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C,
SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also
offers the SB (Surround Back) channel for surround
playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES
Extended Surround includes two signal formats with
different surround signal recording methods, as DTSES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1.
• dts Digital Surround 96/24
The stereo CD is a 16-bit medium with sampling at
44.1 kHz. Professional audio has been 20- or 24bit for some time, and there is increasing interest
in higher sampling rates both for recording and for
delivery into the home. Greater bit depths provide
extended dynamic range. Higher sampling rates
allow wider frequency response and the use of antialias and reconstruction fi lters with more favorable
aural characteristics.
DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1channel sound tracks to be
encoded at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVD-Video
titles.
When DVD-video appeared, it became possible to
deliver 24-bit, 96 kHz audio into the home, but only in
two channels, and with serious limitations on picture.
This capability has had little use.
DVD-audio allows 96/24 in six channels, but a
new player is needed, and only analog outputs are
provided, necessitating the use of the D/A converters
and analog electronics provided in the player.
DTS-HD Master Audio is capable of delivering audio
that is a bit-for-bit identical to the studio master.
DTS-HD Master Audio delivers audio at super high
variable bit rates -24.5 mega-bits per second (Mbps)
on Blu-ray discs and 18.0 Mbps on HD-DVD - that
are signifi cantly higher than standard DVDs . This bit
stream is so “fast” and the transfer rate is so “high”
that it can deliver the Holy Grail of audio: 7.1 audio
channels at 96k sampling frequency/24 bit depths
that are identical to the original. With DTS-HD Master
Audio, you will be able to experience movies and
music, exactly as the artist intended: clear, pure, and
uncompromised.
DTS-HD High Resolution Audio can deliver up to 7.1
channels of sound that is virtually indistinguishable
from the original. DTS-HD High Resolution Audio
delivers audio at high constant bit rates superior to
standard DVDs---6.0 Mbps on Blu-ray discs and 3.0
Mbps on HD-DVD to produce outstanding sound
quality. It is capable of delivering up to 7.1 channels
at 96k sampling frequency/24 bit depth resolution. It
allows content creators to deliver rich, high defi nition
audio on movies where disc space may not allow for
DTS-HD Master Audio.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx is fully compatible with Dolby
Surround Pro Logic technology and can optimally
decode the thousands of commercially available
Dolby Surround encoded video cassettes and
television programs with enhanced depth and
spatiality. It can also process any high-quality
stereo or Advanced Resolution 5.1-channel music
content into a seamless 6.1- or 7.1-channel listening
experience.
Dolby Digital identifi es the use of Dolby Digital audio
coding for such consumer formats as DVD and
DTV. As with fi lm sound, Dolby Digital can provide
up to fi ve full-range channels for left, center, and
right screen channels, independent left and right
surround channels, and a sixth (“.1”) channel for lowfrequency effects.
Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is an improved matrix
decoding technology that provides better spatiality
and directionality on Dolby Surround program
material; provides a convincing three-dimensional
soundfi eld on conventional stereo music recordings;
and is ideally suited to bring the surround experience
to automotive sound. While conventional surround
programming is fully compatible with Dolby Surround
II
Pro Logic
decoders, soundtracks will be able to be
encoded specifi cally to take full advantage of Pro
Logic
II
playback, including separate left and right
surround channels. (Such material is also compatible
with conventional Pro Logic decoders.)
Dolby Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output
channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done
using a matrix decoder that derives three surround
channels from the two in the original recording. For
best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with
movies soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital
Surround EX.
The Dolby Headphone technology provides a
surround sound listening experience over headphones.
When listening to multichannel content such as DVD
movies over headphones, the listening experience
is fundamentally different than listening to speakers.
Since the headphone speaker drivers are covering
the pinna of the ear, the listening experience differs
greatly from traditional speaker playback. Dolby
utilizes patented headphone perspective curves to
solve this problem and provides a non-fatiguing,
immersive, home theater listening experience. Dolby
Headphone also delivers exceptional 3D audio from
stereo material.
Dolby Virtual Speaker is a technologycertified
by Dolby Laboratories that creates a virtualized
surround sound experience from two speakers using
a multichannel Dolby Digital source. Additionally,
Dolby Virtual Speaker can simulate the surround
sound effect produced by Dolby Pro Logic or Dolby
Pro Logic II .
Dolby Virtual Speaker retains all the original
Multichannel audio information and provides the
listener with the sensation of being surrounded by
additional speakers.

Circle Surround II (CS-II ) is a powerful and versatile
multichannel technology. CS-II is designed to enable
up to 6.1 multichannel surround sound playback
from mono, stereo, CS encoded sources and other
matrix encoded sources. In all cases the decoder
extends it into 6 channels of surround audio and a
LFE/subwoofer signal. The CS-II decoder creates a
listening environment that places the listener “inside”
music performances and dramatically improves
both hi-fi audio conventional surround-encoded
video material. CS-II provides composite stereo rear
channels to greatly improve separation and image
positioning– adding a heightened sense of realism to
both audio and A/V productions.
CS-II is packed with other useful feature like dialog
clarity (SRS Dialog) for movies and cinema-like bass
enrichment (TruBass). CS-II can enable the dialog
to become clearer and more discernable in movies
and it enables the bass frequencies contained in the
original programming to more closely achieve low
frequencies–overcoming the low frequency limitations
of the speakers by full octave.

HDCD® (High Definition Compatible Digital ®) is a
patented process for delivering on Compact Disc the full
richness and details of the original microphone feed.
HDCD encoded CDs sound better because they are
encoded with 20-bits of real musical information as
compared to 16-bits for all other CDs.
HDCD overcomes the limitation of the 16-bit CD
format by using a sophisticated system to encode
the additional four bits onto the CD while remaining
completely compatible with the CD format.
When listening to HDCD recordings, you hear more
dynamic range, a focused 3-D sound stage, and
extremely natural vocal and musical timbre. With
HDCD, you get the body, depth and emotion of the
original performance not a fl at, digital imitation.

XM HD Surround uses Neural SurroundTM technology
to achieve optimal surround sound from XM radio.
There are several factors that can degrade the sound
from even the best loudspeakers in a listening room.
One of the most important is the interaction of sound
from the loudspeakers with large surfaces such as
walls, the fl oor, and the ceiling in the room. Even
with careful loudspeaker placement and acoustical
treatments, there are signifi cant problems that are
caused by room acoustics. These include refl ections
from nearby surfaces and standing waves that are
created between large parallel surfaces in the room.
In a home theater the situation is further complicated
because there are several listening locations. The
effects of room acoustics on the sound arriving at
each person’s ears are very different and the result is
a listening experience that is degraded in a different
way for every person in the room. It is not uncommon
to have variations in two adjacent seats that are as
large as 10 dB, particularly in the frequency range
below 250 Hz.
The solution to this problem is to apply room correction
after precisely measuring how each loudspeaker
interacts with the room. Because the room causes
variations in the frequency response of the
loudspeakers that are so large from seat to seat, it
is important to measure each loudspeaker at several
locations in the listening room. This should be done
even if there is only one listener. Measurement at a
single location is not representative of the acoustical
problems in the room and will in most cases, degrade
overall performance. Audyssey MultEQ is the only
technology that can achieve room correction for
multiple listeners in a large listening area. It does so
by combining the data collected at several points in
the room from each loudspeaker and then applying
correction that minimizes the acoustical effects of
the room and is matched to the frequency resolution
of human perception (known as psychoacoustics).
Furthermore, MultEQ correction is applied both
in frequency and time domains and so there are
no artifacts (such as smearing of sound or modal
ringing)that are sometimes associated with traditional
methods of room equalization.
In addition to correcting frequency response problems
over a wide listening area, Audyssey MultEQ provides
a completely automated sound system set-up
process. It identifi es how many loudspeakers are
connected to the amplifi ers and whether they are fullrange, satellites, or subwoofers. If there is a least one
subwoofer connected, Audyssey MultEQ determines
the optimum crossover frequency between each
satellite and the subwoofer(s). It automatically
checks the polarity of each loudspeaker and alerts
the user if there are any that may be wired outof-phase relative to the others. It measures the
distance to each loudspeaker from the main listening
position and adjusts the delays so that sound from
each loudspeaker arrives at the same time. Finally,
Audyssey MuitEQ determines the playback level of
each loudspeaker and adjusts the volume trims so
that all levels are equal.
