5.1a MUSIC
The 5.1a LOGIC 7 MUSIC listening mode is similiar to the 5.1a
LOGIC 7 FILM listening mode, but specifically tailored for music
sources. This mode is designed and recommended for playback of
5.1-channel analog music sources.
See “Listening Mode Menu Option & Parameter Descriptions” on page 5-37 for detailed
descriptions.
5.1a UL2Cin, 5.1a SurEX, & 5.1a
The 5.1a THX UL2Cin, 5.1a THX SurEX, and 5.1a THX listening
modes are designed to convert 5.1-channel analog film sources that
lack THX Surround EX encoding into seven channel audio. The
modes also allow 5.1-channel analog sources to use bass
management, speaker crossovers, speaker distance calibration, and
audio controls (tone controls). The 5.1a THX UL2Cin, 5.1a THX
SurEX, and 5.1a THX listening modes are recommended for home
theaters with THX-certified speakers. These modes 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.
• THX timbre matching to minimize timbre differences between
the front and surround channels, which results in smoother
sound movements between them.
The listening mode name differs depending on the SURROUND EX
parameter setting, and the speaker setup.
The table at the top of the next page indicates the conditions in
which THX Ultra2 and THX Surround EX decoding are activated.
