Product Sheet
Certified THX
®
Integrated System
THX Integrated System guarantees theater-quality sound
in an affordable all-in-one package. Certified systems are
ideal for smaller spaces where the screen-to-seat viewing
distance is about 6–8 ft. (2–3 m). All components within the
system are rigorously tested to meet
THX standards, delivering the same
distortion-free sound volume you
experience in a commercial theater.
Dynamic Audio Amplification
The high-current capability of Dynamic Audio Amplification is
proven by an ability to drive four-ohm speaker loads, which
severely test the strongest amplifier. Heaps of muscle means
superior control, restoring energy to stereo and multichannel
sound. In addition, VLSC
™
eliminates pulse-noise for optimal
playback of quality stereo sources.
THX Integrated System Certified Speakers
This 2-Way speaker package features solid MDF enclosures
and A-OMF woofers (comprising layered polyethylene
naphthalate and flexible cotton weave). Included 2-way
Surround speakers with 5

˝ (13 cm) A-OMF drivers assure

cone outputs 125 Watts of chest-rumbling bass. All speakers
are certified to meet THX Integrated System standards.

®
or DTS:X
™
Home Theater

or DTS:X formats, with the included wall-mountable Surround
speakers convincingly reproducing overhead effects.
