High Definition Television (HDTV):
High Definition Television (HDTV) will soon be bringing a larger aspect ratio to home
theater. In other words, you will see a wider picture more like a movie screen. HDTV
has twice the lines of resolution as today's television, and brings a new level of clarity
to the image.
HDTV also incorporates Dolby AC-3 sound technology to bring together a complete
presentation.
HDTV has five times the information as standard TV and creates a deeper sense of
realism.
THX:
THX is the gold star standard for acoustics, and speaker placement, and certifies
equipment that is capable of playing the best sound.
The development of THX audio was the result of director George Lucas' efforts to
achieve truer sound reproduction in movie theaters. His Lucasfilm company patented
the standard which was later translated to the home format.
A Home THX Audio System carries a higher price tag, but has many advantages over
the standard surround systems including:
Clearer Dialogue
Better Localization of On-Screen Sound (so sound pans realistically with movements)
Effortless bass reproduction (for rumbles, explosions, and other impact sounds)
Enveloping Surround Sound (for all-around sound fields)
Wide Frequency and Dynamic Ranges (able to reproduce the full range of sounds
recorded at the mixing studio)
