THX Ultra
Before any home theatre component can be THX Ultra
certified, it must pass a rigorous series of quality and per-
formance tests. Only then can a product feature the THX
Ultra logo, which is your guarantee that the Home The-
atre products you purchase will give you superb perfor-
mance for many years to come. THX Ultra requirements
define hundreds of parameters, including power ampli-
fier performance, and pre-amplifier performance and
operation for both digital and analog domains. THX Ultra
receivers also features proprietary THX technologies (e.g.
THX Mode, see page 38) which accurately translate film
soundtracks for home theater playback.
AUDIO/VIDEO FEATURES
■ THX SURROUND EX ® BUILT IN to decode the additional two
back surround channels from THX Surround EX-encoded DVDs
and laserdiscs, for incredibly real 360˚ surround sound effects
and precise sound location.
■ DTS ® DECODER BUILT IN to decode the impeccable 5.1-
channel digital audio from DTS-encoded DVD-Video discs,
DVD-Audio discs, CDs and laserdiscs.
■ DOLBY ®* DIGITAL DECODER BUILT IN to decode the 5.1-
channel crystal-clear digital audio of DVDs, Digital TV, HDTV,
satellite broadcasts and other sources.
■ DOLBY ® PRO LOGIC ™ DECODER
■ MPEG DECODEING for full compatibility with MPEG-
encoded software and broadcasts.
■ DIGITAL UPSAMPLING MODE–the first receiver to have
192kHz/24-bit DACs for all channels enables the DTR-9.1 to
take a 48kHz digital signal and double its sampling frequency
to 96kHz–twice as much signal information, for greater detail
and clarity.
■ THEATER-DIMENSIONAL ™ VIRTUAL SURROUND MODE
to transform two speakers into a complete virtual sur-
round sound system
■ A/V SYNC DELAY
■ LUCASFILM THX
® ULTRA FULL-ENHANCEMENT PACKAGE–
includes such sophisticated DSP enhancements as Cinema Re-
EQ
™ , Timbre Matching ™ , Adaptive Decorrelation ™ , and Bass
Management™ to ensure accurate reproduction of the movie-
theater experience in the home.
■ 7.1-CHANNEL EXTERNAL INPUTS
■ COMPONENT VIDEO OUTPUTS
OTHER FEATURES
■ 40 FM/AM RANDOM PRESETS
■ INTELLIVOLUME
■ ABSOLUTE/RELATIVE SWITCHABLE VOLUME DISPLAY
■ ASSIGNABLE and CONFIGUARAGBLE 12-Volt TRIG-
GERS FOR CUSTOM INSTALLATION APPLICATIONS
■ ASSIGNABLE and CONFIGURABLE 12-volt TRIGGERS
FOR CUSTOM INSTALLATION APPLICATION.
AMPLIFIER FEATURES
■ 130 WATTS MINIMUM OF CONTINUOUS RMS POWER
to each of the 7channels into 8
Ω, from 20 Hz to 20 kHz with no
more than 0.05%THD (FTC rating)–clean high-current amplifi-
cation provides incredible dynamic range for seamless repro-
duction of even the most demanding cinema soundtracks, as
well as animatedly rich music at any volume level.
■ 7.1-CHANNEL AMPLIFIER–the first receiver to achieve this
feat in one chassis–the DTR-9.1 provides unparalleled power and
clarity to all 7.1-channels for a room-filling sound experience
seconds to none.
■ LUCASFILM THX ® ULTRA CERTIFIED–in addition to the
amazing ability to drive 7.1 channels, the DTR-9.1 also boasts
the distinction of carrying the exclusive THX Ultra badge of
approval–assurance that this receiver passed (and often
exceeds) THX's numerous requirements in such areas as
frequency response, distortion, power output, and stability.
■ 192kHz/24-BIT D/A CONVERTERS FOR ALL CHANNELS–
the first receiver in the industry to utilize these powerful
converters for all seven channels–the DTR-9.1's DACs not only
boast a dynamic range of 120dB, they also process more
information faster and are virtually resistant to clock jitter, to
ensure the best performance possible from DVD-Audio and
other upcoming formats, while also producing cleaner, clearer
sound form DVDs and CDs.
■ WIDE RANGE AMPLIFIER TECHNOLOGY(WRAT)
WRAT virtually eliminates the adverse effects of counter-electro-
motive force by: 1) applying an uncommonly low amount of NFB
(negative feed-back), 2) using carefully selected, high-toler-
ance, wide range parts in all critical sections, and 3) incorporat-
ing innovative circuit topology based upon decades of high-
end amplifier-design experience–the final result is a flat response
beyond 100kHz, making the DTR-9.1 ideal for such high-resolution
formats as DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD, and other upcom-
ing digital formats.
FLEXBILITY FEATURES
■ FUTURE-PROOF INTERFACE ARCHITECTURE–a versatile
RS232 port allows the DTR-9.1's powerful 4Mbit Flash Memory to
be directly computer accessed for installing such future up-
grades as new DSP algorithms, new surround formats/param-
eters, and other types of processing updates.
■ ZONE 2 MULTIROOM/MULTISOURCE CAPABILITY–a full
set of line outs for audio, composite video, and S-video, allows
for set-up of an additional system in another room–connect an
optional infrared eye in Zone 2, and complete second-room
control can be achieved with such A/V distribution control
systems as Xantech
® , Niles ® , to name but a few.
