• HDMI
HDMI (High-Defi nition Multimedia Interface) is an
enhancement to the DVI (Digital Visual Interface)
standard. It adds capabilities for digitally transmitting
audio signals in addition to video signals. Where
multiple cables were previously needed for audio/
video, HDMI enables audio/video connection via a
single cable.
The HDMI input jacks of this unit support HDMI Ver.
1.3a. and the HDMI output jacks of this transmitter
support HDMI Ver. 1.3a.
Copyright Protection
This unit supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection). HDCP is copyright protection
technology that consists of data encoding and other
device authentication. Its purpose is to protect digital
video content. Both this unit and the connected
component (such as a video player or monitor) must
support HDCP. Before connecting a component to
this unit, refer to its instruction manual.

DESCRIPTION
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.
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.

EX is a trademark of Dolby Laboratories. Used with

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
