SYSTEM 370 THX

High Performance THX Home Theater

Loudspeaker System

Congratulations on your purchase of the Atlantic Technology System 370 THX loudspeaker system. With proper care, your new speaker system will provide many years of trouble-free, high quality sound reproduction.

The System 370 THX was designed to provide accurate, uncompromised reproduction of high fidelity music and movie soundtracks. Nothing was spared in the development of the speaker components and cabinetry to provide superior performance, while maintaining an elegant, compact design that is easily integrated into the home.

What Is Home THX?

A Home THX audio system is the ultimate in sound for multi-channel home theater systems. The system incorporates a series of patented electronic and loudspeaker developments designed to reproduce all multi-channel sources accurately in the home environment. The driving force behind the creation of Home THX was the observation that, in the home environment, conventional audio components could not accurately reproduce soundtracks as they were originally intended. Two basic requirements were identified:

1.A need to correct the audible tonal and spatial errors caused by the reproduction of movie soundtracks designed for playback in large theaters in the smaller environment of the home.

2.A need to more accurately reproduce the complex and competing soundfields present in multi- channel soundtracks.

Why THX Loudspeakers?

Conventional high fidelity loudspeakers, even very expensive ones, are not ideally suited to the demands of multi-channel soundtracks. The Atlantic Technology System 370 THX is ideally suited to the accurate reproduction of high fidelity music and multi-channel sound. Here’s why:
