THX Loudness Plus
THX Loudness Plus is a new volume control
technology featured in THX Ultra2 Plus™, THX
Select2 Plus™ and THX I/S Plus™ certified
receivers.
With THX Loudness Plus, home theater
audiences can experience the rich details of
surround sound at any volume level.
If the volume is turned down below the
reference level, elements of sound in a certain
range are lost or the sound is perceived
differently by audience.
THX Loudness Plus compensates for the tonal
and spatial shifts that occur when the volume
level is reduced, by intelligently adjusting
the levels of the surround channels and their
frequency response in the environment.
Thus audiences can experience the true
impact of soundtracks regardless of the volume
setting. THX Loudness Plus automatically turns
on in any THX listening mode. In the newly
developed THX Cinema, THX Music and THX
Games modes, an optimum THX Loudness
Plus setting will be obtained according to the
type of content.
