ENGLISH

SURROUND MODE

The SR7500 is equipped with many surround

modes. These are provided to reproduce a variety

of surround sound effects, according to the content

of the source to be played.

The available surround modes may be restricted

depending on the input signal and speaker setup.

AUTO

When this mode is selected, the receiver

determines whether the digital input signal is Dolby

Digital, Dolby Digital Surround EX, DTS, DTS-ES,

DTS 96/24 or PCM-audio.

Surround EX & DTS-ES will operate for multichannel

source that has a Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-

ES auto trigger flag in the digital signal.

When a Dolby Digital or DTS signal is input, the

number of channels for which the corresponding

signal is encoded will be played.

Inputting a Dolby Digital two channel signal with

Dolby surround status automatically subjects that

signal to Pro Logic IIx movie processing before

play.

PCM 96 kHz source material can be played in this

mode.

Notes:

• When you use this mode with certain DVD and

CD players, performing operations such as “Skip”

or “Stop” may momentarily interrupt the output.

• When the signal is not decoded, the mode is

changed to AUTO mode automatically. Refer to

page 24 to confirm the available decoding mode.

THX

THX mode applies additional processing to Dolby

Digital, DTS, and Dolby Pro Logic multi-channel,

surround sources. The THX processing was

developed by Lucasfilm Ltd. to recreated the

sound of top-quality theater.

Use the THX mode for all movies on disc, tape or

broadcast. In this mode, THX Surround EX will not

operate in this mode.

THX SURROUND EX

In a movie theater, film soundtracks that have been

encoded with Dolby Digital surround EX

technology are able to reproduce an extra channel

which has been added during the mixing of the

program.

This channel, called Surround Back, places

sounds behind the listener in addition to the

currently available front left, front center, front

right, surround right, surround left and subwoofer

channels.

This additional channel provides the opportunity

for more detailed imaging behind the listener and

brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound

localization than ever before.

THX Surround EX will operate for any 5.1 channel

source whenever THX is active.

THX Surround EX is not available in the system

without surround back speaker(s).

Note:

• When playing Dolby Digital Surround EX-

encoded software in 6.1 channels, it is required to

set the THX Surround EX mode.

channels (left, center, right, surround left and

channel.

Dolby Digital EX decoding is not available in this

mode.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx brings the excitement of

surround sound to any stereo mix, while making

existing Dolby Surround mixes sound more like

discrete 5.1 channels Surround sound.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx has 3 modes. Please see

below.

Pro Logic II x MOVIE

This mode provides 6.1 or 7.1 channel surround

sound from Dolby Surround encoded stereo movie

sound tracks.

sound from conventional stereo sources, analog or
