Surround EX Mode
The THX ASA and EX setup page allows the THX Advanced Speaker Array
and THX Surround EX modes to be adjusted. Available options for the
Advanced Speaker Array (ASA) mode are Ultra2 Cinema, THX MusicMode,
and Off. Ultra2 Cinema mode will be most appropriate for movie soundtracks
that are not Surround EX-encoded, while MusicMode will work best for multi-
channel music sources. The default setting for the ASA Mode menu is Ultra2
Cinema.
Available options for THX Surround EX are AUTO, ON, and OFF. In the AUTO
mode, THX Surround EX processing will occur when all Surround EX condi-
tions have been met, and the Dolby Digital bitstream contains the appropriate
flag to indicate that the soundtrack is Surround EX encoded. In the ON mode,
THX Surround EX processing will take place whenever all Surround EX condi-
tions have been met. In the OFF mode, THX Surround EX processing will not
take place even if the appropriate conditions are met. The default setting for
the Surround EX Mode menu is AUTO.
ASA and Surround EX adjustments can only be made when accessing 5.1
Dolby Digital and DTS soundtracks. These settings will only take effect when
the Stage One is configured with Surround Back speakers in the Speaker
Configuration menu.
