Applying THX technologies

Movie soundtracks are mixed in special movie theatres called
dubbing stages and are designed to be played back in movie
theatres with similar equipment and conditions. The soundtrack
created for movie theatres is then transferred directly onto
Laserdisc, VHS tape, DVD, etc., and is not changed for playback
in a smal home theatre environment.
THX engineers developed patented technologies to accurately
translate the sound from the movie theatre environment into the
home, correcting the tonal and spatial errors that occur. On the
KRF-X9992D, when the THX mode is on, the THX technologies
are automatically added after the decoded signal.
Movies which have been encoded in Dolby Digital, MPEG,
Dolby Pro Logic, Stereo and Mono can all benefit from activat-
ing the THX technologies. THX should be activated only when
watching movies which were mixed for playback in large movie
theatre environments. THX need not be activated for music,
movies that were made especially for television or shows such as
sports programming, talk shows, etc. This is because they were
mixed in a small room environment.
