THX ensures the highest possible quality in home cinema, THX defines stringent picture and sound track criteria for film-to-DVD (and film-to-VHS) transfers.  Such DVD titles are labeled as "THX Digitally Mastered for superior sound and picture quality" or simply "THX Certified".  THX also defines stringent performance standards for audio/video source and processing components.  These include strict performance standards for DVD players, receivers, preamplifiers, power amplifiers, speakers, interconnect cables, speaker cables, and even the room's acoustic characteristics (for dedicated home theater environments).

For the "everyday consumer", the "THX" label means that the highest standards have been used, whether the product is a DVD-Video title, audio/video components.  Or in the case of custom home theater projects the label means:
