A proprietary THX technology that processes signals sent to the rear speakers, optimizing the listening experience for THX Ultra2 listening modes. To maximize the effectiveness of ASA processing, it is recommended to configure a 7-channel speaker setup in which the rear speakers are placed close together facing the center of the listening space. The ASA parameter is not available unless the

5.1THX ULTRA2, 5.1 THX MUSIC, dts THX ULTRA2, or dts THX MUSIC listening mode is activated.

Select the TOGETHER setting if the distance between the rear speakers is less than 1 foot (0.3m). Select the CLOSE setting if the distance between the rear speakers is greater than 1 foot (0.3m), but less than 4 feet (1.2m). Select the APART setting if the distance between the rear speakers is greater than 4 feet (1.2m).

Note:

ASA processing is only available when both side and rear speakers are present.
