Audyssey DSX*8					• Audyssey DSX	D	bB
					Audyssey DSX™ is a scalable system that adds new speakers to improve	F
	A u d y s s e y D S X
					surround impression. Starting with a 5.1 system Audyssey DSX first adds	G
					Wide channels for the biggest impact on envelopment. Research in human
					hearing has proven that information from the Wide channels is much more
					critical in the presentation of a realistic soundstage than Back Surround
					channels found in traditional 7.1 systems. Audyssey DSX then creates a pair
					of Height channels to reproduce the next most important acoustical and
					perceptual cues. In addition to these new Wide and Height channels,
					Audyssey DSX applies Surround Envelopment Processing to enhance the
					blend between the front and surround channels.

THX					Founded by George Lucas, THX develops stringent standards that ensure
					movies are reproduced in movie theaters and home theaters just as the
					director intended. THX Modes carefully optimize the tonal and spatial
					characteristics of the soundtrack for reproduction in the home-theater
					environment. They can be used with 2-channel matrixed and multichannel
					sources. Surround back speaker output depends on the source material and
					the selected listening mode.
