Yes - and that rolloff is designed to match the rolloff inherent with large venue screens with speakers behind them. I don't consider that an advantage. In fact, Dolby reEQ does just the opposite - it bumps up those frequencies to compensate for speakers behind a screen to give you a more flat response.

Oh not at all!

First, ReEQ is THX, not Dolby. Second, it was requested by LucasFilms precisely because a flat response was too bright!

See this link for more details.

Also, Thomlinson Holman (TH of THX) is Chief Scientist at Audyssey, fwiw.
