With multichannel sources, if you have connected
surround back speaker(s) and have selected Extended
ON, you can select (according to format):
2 Pro Logic IIx MOVIE – See above (only available
when you’re using two surround back speakers)
2 Pro Logic IIx MUSIC – See above
Dolby Digital EX – Creates surround back channel
sound for 5.1 channel sources and provides pure
decoding for 6.1 channel sources (like Dolby Digital
Surround EX)
DTS-ES – Allows you to hear 6.1 channel playback
with DTS-ES encoded sources
DTS Neo:6 – Allows you to hear 6.1 channel playback
with DTS encoded sources
Note
If the Extended mode (page 36) is switched to OFF, or
the surround back speakers are set to NO (this
happens automatically if the Surround back speaker
setting on page 40 is set to anything but Normal
(SB)), 2 Pro Logic IIx becomes 2 Pro Logic II (5.1
channel sound).
In modes that give 6.1 channel sound, the same
signal is heard from both surround back speakers.
Using the Home THX modes
THX and Home THX are technical standards created by
Lucasfilm Ltd. for cinema and home theater sound.
Home THX is designed to make home theater audio
sound more like what you hear in a cinema.
Different THX options will be available depending on the
source and the Extended mode setting (see Using the
surround back channel (Extended mode) on page 36 for
more on this).
Press THX to select a THX listening mode.
With two channel sources, press THX repeatedly to select
a matrix-decoding process for the THX CINEMA mode
(see Listening in surround sound above for an
explanation of each process):
2 Pro Logic IIx MOVIE+THX
2 PRO LOGIC+THX
Neo:6 CINEMA+THX
THX GAMES MODE
With multichannel sources, press THX repeatedly to
select from:
THX CINEMA – Gives you cinema-quality sound from
your home theatre system using all the speakers in
your setup
2 Pro Logic IIx MOVIE+THX – Especially suited to
movie sources, this allows you to hear 7.1 channel
playback with 5.1 channel sources (only available
when you’re using two surround back speakers)
THX Surround EX – Allows you to hear 6.1 or 7.1
channel playback with 5.1 channel sources
THX Select2 CINEMA – Allows you to hear 7.1
channel playback with 5.1 channel sources
THX MUSICMODE – Allows you to hear 7.1 channel
playback with 5.1 channel sources
THX GAMES MODE – Allows you to hear 7.1
channel playback from the output of a video game
console
Note
You won’t be able to use the THX options with 88.2/
96kHz PCM or DTS 96kHz/24 bit sources, or with the
headphones connected.
If you only have one surround back speaker
connected, THX Select2 CINEMA, THX
MUSICMODE and THX GAMES MODE are not
available.
When selecting the Dolby Pro Logic modes above,
the display shows the mode you selected, then after
a few seconds, shows THX CINEMA.
