Yamaha RX-V2600 Manual Do Utilizador

■ THX Games Mode

For the replay of stereo and multi-channel game audio the 
THX Games Mode should be selected. In this mode THX 
ASA processing is applied to the surround channels of all 
5.1 and 2.0 encoded game sources such as analog, PCM, 
DTS and Dolby Digital. This accurately places all game 
audio surround information, providing a full 360 degree 
playback environment. THX Games Mode is unique as it 
gives you a smooth transition of audio in all points of the 
surround field.

■ THX Music Mode

For the replay of multi-channel music the THX Music 
Mode should be selected. In this mode THX ASA 
processing is applied to the surround channels of all 5.1 
encoded music sources such as DTS, Dolby Digital and 
DVD-Audio to provide a wide stable rear soundstage.

■ THX Select2

Before any home theater component can be THX Select2 
certified, it must incorporate all the features described in 
THX Cinema processing and also pass a rigorous series of 
quality and performance tests. Only then can a product 
feature the THX Select2 logo, which is your guarantee 
that the Home Theater products you purchase will give 
you superb performance for many years to come. 
THX Select2 requirements cover every aspect of the 
product including power amplifier and pre-amplifier 
performance and operation, and hundreds of other 
parameters in both the digital and analog domain.

■ THX Select2 Cinema mode

THX Select2 Cinema mode plays 5.1 movies using all 
8 speakers giving you the best possible movie watching 
experience. In this mode ASA processing blends the side 
surround speakers and back surround speakers providing 
the optimal mix of ambient and directional surround 
sounds.
DTS-ES (Matrix and 6.1 Discrete) and Dolby Digital 
Surround EX encoded soundtracks will be automatically 
detected in THX Select2 Cinema mode if the appropriate 
flag has been encoded.
Some Dolby Digital Surround EX soundtracks are missing 
the digital flag that allows automatic switching. If you 
know that the movie that you are watching is encoded in 
Surround EX, you can manually select the THX Surround 
EX playback mode; otherwise, THX Select2 Cinema 
mode will apply ASA processing to provide optimum 
replay.

■ THX Surround EX

THX Surround EX-Dolby Digital Surround EX is a joint 
development of Dolby Laboratories and the THX Ltd.
In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been 
encoded with Dolby Digital Surround EX technology are 
able to reproduce an extra channel which has been added 
during the mixing of the program. This channel, called 
Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in 
addition to the currently available front left, front center, 
front right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer 
channels. This additional channel provides the opportunity 
for more detailed imaging behind the listener and brings 
more depth, spacious ambience and sound localization 
than ever before.
Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital 
Surround EX technology, when released into the home 
consumer market may exhibit wording to that effect on the 
packaging. A list of movies created using this technology 
can be found on the Dolby web site at www.dolby.com. 
A list of available DVD software titles encoded with this 
technology can be found at www.thx.com.
Only receiver and controller products bearing the 
THX Surround EX logo, when in the THX Surround EX 
mode, faithfully reproduce this new technology in the 
home. 
This product may also engage the THX Surround EX 
mode during the playback of 5.1 channel material that is 
not Dolby Digital Surround EX encoded. In such cases the 
information delivered to the Surround Back channel will 
be program dependent and may or may not be pleasing 
depending on the particular soundtrack and the tastes of 
the individual listener.
