THX is an exclusive set of standards and technologies estab-

lished by the world-renowned film production company,

Lucasfilm Ltd. THX grew from George Lucas’ personal desire

to make your experience of the film soundtrack, in both movie

theatres and in your home theatre, as faithful as possible to

the master recording.

Before any home theatre component can be THX Ultra certi-

fied, it must pass a rigorous series of quality and performance

tests. Only then can a product feature the THX Ultra logo, which

is your guarantee that the Home Theatre products you pur-

chase will give you superb performance for many years to

come.

With today’s superior quality but exceptionally complex audio

systems it is important to ensure that noise, distortion and fre-

quency response errors are negligible in all links in the audio

chain. With discrete multichannel sources it is especially im-

portant that maximum power is instantly available without in-

stability, rise in distortion or other undesirable side affects.

THX Ultra requirements cover every performance aspect of

this product including operation, output power levels, gain, fre-

quency response and numerous other parameters. Whether

you choose music or movies, multichannel or stereo, this am-

plifier will be supremely flexible, easy to use, sonically trans-

parent and absolutely reliable.
