THX Loudness Plus

THX Loudness Plus is a new volume control tech- nology featured in THX Ultra2 Plus™ and THX Select2 Plus™ Certified receivers. With THX Loud- ness Plus, home theater audiences can now experi- ence the rich details in a surround mix at any volume level. A consequence of turning the volume below Reference Level is that certain sound elements can be lost or perceived differently by the listener. THX Loudness Plus compensates for the tonal and spatial shifts that occur when the volume is reduced by intelligently adjusting ambient surround channel levels and frequency response. This enables users experience the true impact of soundtracks regardless of the volume setting. THX Loudness Plus is auto- matically applied when listening in any THX listen- ing mode. The new THX Cinema, THX Music, and THX Games modes are tailored to apply the proper THX Loudness Plus settings for each type of con- tent.
