THX 44

HOME CINEMA EQUALIZER

OPERATORS MANUAL

Security Cover Removed

QUICK START

Great video is easy; great audio is hard, but a THX 44 makes it a lot easier. Read at least this boxed section and you’ll

be on your way toward great audio.

Hook-up is intuitive: In from the controller, Out to the amplifiers. Just follow the silkscreened legends on the rear of the

unit.Use either the RCA jacks or the DB-25 connectors.

Familiarity with other graphic and parametric equalizers makes the THX 44 just as familiar. If this is your first equal-

izer, be gentle; it can overwhelm you.

Use the BYPASS switch as an aid in comparing equalized results with unequalized results. Pushbutton in and locked

(LED on) is the bypassed (unequalized) mode; pushbutton out and unlocked (LED off) is the normal equalized mode. See

the included “Home THX Audio System Room Equalization Manual” for the alignment procedures required. See the

Operating Instructions on the back page for more information.

Install the supplied security cover after completing all settings. Be sure the POWER light fits snugly into the hole in the

security cover.

Never connect anything except an approved Rane power supply to the red modular jack on the rear of the unit. This

is an AC input and requires special attention if you do not have a power supply exactly like the one originally packed with

your unit. See the full explanation of the power supply requirements on page Manual-3.
