PLIIx + & PLII +
The Dolby PLIIx + THX and Dolby PLII + THX listening modes are
designed to playback 7.1 or 5.1 discrete channels decoded from
2-channel Dolby Surround-encoded sources. The seven or five main
channels are full frequency. The .1 channel, often referred to as LFE
information, has a limited frequency range of up to 120Hz. The PLIIx
listening mode is only available when the front, side and rear speakers
are present.
Note:
The PLIIx mode does not appear in the list of available listening modes if
either the side or rear speakers are missing from the configuration.
The modes are recommended for home theaters with THX-certified
speakers. Dolby PLII(x) + THX encoding:
Apply THX re-equalization to simulate high-frequency rolloffs
that occur in movie theaters. Most films are mixed for movie
theaters, and might sound too bright when played back in
home theaters without re-equalization.
Apply THX timbre matching to minimize timbre differences
between the front and surround channels, which results in
smoother sound movements between them.
