Compensation (BGC) feature to improve bass
balance.

Loudness Plus On When the setting is set to "On", it is possible to
enjoy even subtle nuances of audio expression
at low volume. This is only available when the
THX listening mode is selected.
THX Loudness Plus
THX Loudness Plus is a new volume control
technology featured in THX Ultra and THX
Select Certified receivers.
With THX Loudness Plus, home theater
audiences can now experience the rich details
in a surround mix at any volume level.
A consequence of turning the volume below
Reference Level is that certain sound elements
can be lost or perceived differently by the
listener. THX Loudness Plus compensates for
the tonal and spatial shifts that occur when the
volume is reduced by intelligently adjusting
ambient surround channel levels and frequency
response. This enables users experience
the true impact of soundtracks regardless of
the volume setting. THX Loudness Plus is
automatically applied when listening in any THX
listening mode. The new THX Cinema, THX
Music, and THX Games modes are tailored to
apply the proper THX Loudness Plus settings
for each type of content.
