A list of movies created using this technology
can be found on the Dolby web site at http://

Only amplifier 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 encoded. In such case the infor-
mation 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.
Boundary Gain Compensation TM
Depending on the listener’s and the subwoof-
er’s position, the listener may experience an
excessive bass effect. This feature compensates
for excessive bass resulting from a boundary
gain effect. This feature is designed to operate
when used with a subwoofer certified to THX
Select2
TM specifications.
THX Loudness Plus Description
THX Loudness Plus is a new volume control
technology featured in THX Ultra2 Plus
TM and
THX Select2 Plus TM Certified amplifiers. With
THX Loudness Plus, home theater audiences
can now experience the rich details in a sur-
round mix at any volume level. A consequence
of turning the volume below Reference Level is
that certain sound elements can be lost or per-
ceived differently by the listener. THX Loudness
Plus compensates for the tonal and spatial
shifts that occur when the volume is reduced
by intelligently adjusting ambient surround
channel levels and frequency response. This
enables users to experience the true impact of
soundtracks regardless of the volume setting.
THX Loudness Plus is automatically applied
when listening in any THX listening mode. The
new THX Cinema, THX Music, and THX Games
modes are tailored to apply the proper THX
Loudness Plus settings for each type of content.
