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.
