ULTRA2

or

Designed for playback of 5.1-channel DTS, 5.1-channel matrix-encoded DTS-ES and 6.1-channel discrete-encoded DTS-ES film sources.

Listening mode name differs depending on the encoding present in the input source, the ES DECODING parameter set- ting and the speaker setup. The table below indicates the conditions in which THX Ultra2 and DTS-ES decoding are engaged.

Allows 7-channel playback of 5.1-channel DTS sources with- out DTS-ES 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.

When the DTS THX ULTRA2 listening mode is activated, ASA processing is applied to signals sent to the rear speakers. Refer

to the ASA parameter description on page 3-37 for more information.

When the DTS THX ULTRA2 listening mode is activated, adaptive de-correlation increases the perceived width of the listening space. De-correlation of the mono surround channel increases the perceived width of the surround field in home theaters.

Recommended for home theaters with THX-certified speaker setups.
