CINEMA Re-EQ
In a theater the room is very large and dead sounding, you sit a long way back from the Speaker and the speakers
themselves are very specialized. Because a soundtrack recorded in this dead sounding space when it is played at
home it sounds overbright. THX Re-Equalization adjusts for this difference in a very precise way.
ADVANCED THEATER modes
Four sound modes that enhance DTS and Dolby audio performance by simulating the environment of a movie
theater (DRAMA, ACTION), or the ambience of a concert hall (MUSICAL). With 5-D THEATER, you can enjoy Dolby
Pro Logic encoded software in simulated Dolby Digital.
Various Surround Effects (DSP)
The DSP (Digital Signal Processing) surround mode allows you to transform your living room into six different
sonic environments when listening to music or watching movies.
Midnight Listening Mode
When late night hours or other factors require that the volume be kept low, the surround effects may tend to
become less than satisfactory. When the midnight listening mode is on, you can enjoy the effects of quality
surround sound even at low volumes.
