GLOSSARY
THX™TECHNOLOGY AND QUALITY ASSURANCE
Filmmaker George Lucas originally created THX™as a studio-reference
monitoring tool, and THX Ltd. is now recognized as the leading provider of
product and venue certification for the cinema and home entertainment
industries. THX™Surround EX™extends the 5.1-channel format by adding a
back surround channel matrixed from the left and right surround channels.
THX™Select2™(for small- to medium-sized rooms) is a certification standard
that features THX listening modes, including THX Cinema,THX Music and
THX Games modes, as well as Adaptive Speaker Array (ASA) technology for
optimizing playback of multichannel movies, music and video games in the
home. THX™Ultra2™is designed for larger, dedicated home theater
environments. Both certification programs include THX features such as
Timbre Matching™, Bass Management™, Adaptive
Decorrelation™and Re-Equalization (Re-EQ™).
DOLBY®DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES
Dolby is a recognized pioneer of multichannel audio reproduction. And with
the upcoming Dolby®Digital Plus and Dolby®TrueHD codecs (backcompatible with Dolby®Digital-enabled A/V receivers), they have also shown
that they are a vital leader in home entertainment. Among their current
formats, Dolby®Digital EX™creates six full-bandwidth channels from 5.1channel sources, using a matrix decoder to create an extra surround channel.
Dolby®Pro Logic®IIx transforms any stereo or 5.1 signal into a 6.1- or 7.1channel output, with modes that enable the listening experience to be
tailored to the source material. Game mode, for example, can deliver fullimpact special effects signals to the surround speakers.
Dolby®Virtual Speaker and Dolby®Headphone are virtual
surround technologies.
MULTI-ZONE PLAYBACK THROUGH POWERED ZONE 2
AND ZONE 3
Powered Zone 2 and Zone 3 bring multi-zone entertainment to your home.
With Powered Zone 2, you can enjoy one input source in the main room
and a different source in another room, through two different connection
methods: using a receiver/integrated amp in Zone 2, or using only a pair of
speakers in Zone 2. In the former case, you can enjoy 7.1 surround sound in
the main room and play a different A/V source in Zone 2. In the latter case,
you can have 5.1 surround sound in the main room and play a different
(stereo) A/V source in Zone 2. With the TX-NR1000, it’s possible to connect
a receiver/integrated amp in a third zone (Zone 3) to enjoy distributed
entertainment as in Zone 2. This way, you can enjoy a full 7.1-channel source
in the main room, while playing two
separate stereo sources in Zone 2 and
Zone 3.
COLOR-CODED SPEAKER TERMINALS
These color-coded speaker terminals
take the guesswork out of matching
wires to the correct terminals. Simply
attach the color-coded label to the
speaker cable, and attach the cable to
the same-colored speaker terminal for
easy speaker connection.
DTS®(DIGITAL THEATER SYSTEMS) TECHNOLOGIES
DTS offers premium sound quality with optimal channel separation. Like
Dolby, DTS has two new back-compatible codecs for high-definition formats:
DTS®-HD Master Audio and DTS®-HD, both of which will work with
standard DTS®, a discrete 5.1-channel system. DTS®Neo:6 derives 6-channel
sound from a stereo (2-channel) soundtrack (and DTS®Neo:6 5.1 derives
5.1-channel sound). DTS®-ES™comprises DTS®-ES™Discrete, which provides
a 6.1-channel system with a discrete back surround channel; and DTS®-ES
Matrix, which provides a 6.1-channel system with a matrix-encoded back
surround channel. DTS®96/24 offers you the sound quality of the 96/24
master, which can be encoded on
DVD-Video or in the video zone of
DVD-Audio.
CinemaFILTER
The tonal balance of a film soundtrack can be edgy and bright when played
back over audio equipment in your home—this is because film soundtracks
are designed to be played back in large theaters, using commercial
equipment. Onkyo has developed its own solution that restores the correct
tonal balance of a movie soundtrack in the
smaller environs of your home theater.
™
™
192 kHZ/24-BIT DACS
We include these extremely effective digital-to-analog converters for all main
channels in our top receivers. They not only boast a dynamic range of
120 dB, they process information faster and are virtually resistant to clock
jitter, to ensure the best possible performance from DVD-Audio, DVD-Video,
Super Audio CD and audio CD.
CROSSOVER ADJUSTMENT
Depending on your choice of Onkyo A/V receiver, you can set the subwoofer
crossover at different frequencies. Being able to choose where the subwoofer
takes over bass-producing responsibilities from the front speakers gives you
more precise reproduction of movie soundtracks. It also means you can
select from a wider range of speaker packages, and match speakers with
differing crossover frequencies to your home theater system.
ONKYO’S MICRO FIBER (OMF),A-OMF & A-OMF
ONOCOQUE
M
Onkyo Micro Fiber (OMF), made from a pure
cotton weave to absorb vibrations, was first
developed to create a thick yet rigid diaphragm
that enables an extremely fast, accurate response.
The next stage saw the advent of A-OMF, which
incorporates a PEN (polyethylene naphthalate)
layer with a flexible cotton weave that makes
speaker cones even stronger and more resistant
to heat. We then added an aramid layer to create New A-OMF. The
evolution has been taken a step further with A-OMF Monocoque—
essentially sharing the same material composition as New A-OMF but
forming a single, continuous cover over the cone. All four diaphragm types
achieve improved midrange
clarity and imaging for an
astonishingly vivid, natural sound.
ECO—ENVIRONMENTALLY SOUND SPEAKER
DEVELOPMENT
Onkyo uses recycled materials in the construction of selected
speakers, and controls the discharge of effluent during the
production of the A-OMF Monocoque diaphragm.
