• Listening mode name differs depending on the encoding
present in the input source, the SURROUND EX parameter
setting and the speaker setup.
– The THX ULTRA2 listening mode is available when THX
Ultra2 decoding is engaged.
– The THX SurEX listening mode is available when THX
Surround EX decoding is engaged.
– The THX listening mode is available when neither THX
Ultra2 nor Surround EX decoding is engaged.
– The THX ULTRA2 and THX SurEX listening modes cannot
be activated unless side and rear speakers are present.
Note:
The RV-8 cannot automatically detect THX Surround
EX encoding in non-flagged 5.1-channel Dolby
Digital sources. A non-flagged source does not
include information in the input signal that identifies
THX Surround EX encoding.
