PLIIx + & PLII +
Dolby Pro Logic IIx technology is an extension to Dolby Pro Logic II
that enables the listener to experience natural and seamless 6.1- or
7.1-channel surround sound from any native two-channel (stereo)
source. These modes are recommended for home theaters with THX
certified speakers. The PLIIx + THX listening mode is only available
when the front, side and rear speakers are present. The PLII listening
mode is available when the front and side speakers are present.
Note:
The PLIIx + THX mode does not appear in the list of available listening
modes if either the side or rear speakers are missing from the configuration.
Dolby PLII(x) + THX encoding:
• Applies 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.
• Applies THX timbre matching to minimize timbre differences
between the front and surround channels, which results in
smoother sound movements between them.
See page 5-35 for detailed parameter descriptions.
