Originally developed by Lucasfilm engineers to distinguish only best-in-class audio and video systems, THX Certification ensures that certified equipment can accurately deliver content as the director originally intended. The W8000’s THX Mode is pre-calibrated by THX engineers to deliver the most accurate out-of-the-box picture quality possible.
