INTRODUCTION

DESCRIPTION

THX need not be activated for music, movies made especially for TV, or shows such as sports programming, talk shows, etc. This is because they were originally mixed for a small room environment. THX is a trademark or registered trademark of THX Ltd. Surround EX is a jointly developed technology of THX and Dolby Laboratories, Inc. and is a trademark of Dolby Laboratories, Inc. Used under authorization. All rights reserved.

THX ® is an exclusive set of standards and technologies established by the world-renowned film production company, Lucasfilm Ltd. THX resulted from George Lucas’ desire to reproduce the movie soundtrack as faithfully as possible both in the movie theater and in the home theater. THX engineers developed patented technologies to accurately translate the sound from a movie theater environment into the home, correcting the tonal and spatial errors that occur. When the THX mode of the SR7500 is on, three distinct THX technologies are automatically added: Re-Equalization-restores the correct tonal balance for watching a movie in a home environment. These sounds are otherwise mixed to be brighter for a large movie theater. Re-EQ compensates for this and prevents the soundtracks from being overly bright and harsh when played in a home theater. Timbre Matching-filters the information going to the surround speakers so they more closely match the tonal characteristics of the sound coming from the front speakers. This ensures seamless panning between the front and surround speakers. Adaptive Decorrelation-slightly changes one surround channel’s time and phase relationship with respect to the other surround channel. This expands the listening position and creates with only two surround speakers the same spacious surround experience as in a movie theater with multiple surround speakers. The Marantz SR7500 was required to pass a rigorous series of quality and performance tests, in addition to incorporating the technologies explained above, in order to be THX certified by Lucasfilm Ltd. THX requirements cover every aspect of performance including pre-amplifier and power amplifier performance and operation, and hundreds of other parameters in both the digital and analog domain. Movies which have been encoded in Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Pro Logic, stereo and Mono will all benefit from the THX mode when being viewed. The THX mode should only be activated when watching movies which were originally produced for a movie theater environment.

THX Surround EX—Dolby DIgital Surround EX is a joint development of Dolby Laboratories and THX Ltd. 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. Movies that were created using the Dolby Digital Surround EX technology, when released into the home consumer market may exhibit wording to that effect on the packaging. A list of movies created using this technology can be found on the Dolby web site at www.dolby.com. A list of available DVD software titles encoded with this technology an be found at www.thx.com. Only receiver and controller products bearing the THX Surround EX logo, when in the THX Surround EX mode, faithfully reproduce this new technology in the home. This product may also engage the THX Surround EX mode during the playback of 5.1 channel material that is not Dolby Digital Surround EX eocnded. In such case, the information delivered to the Surround Back channel will be program dependent and may or may not be very pleasing depending on the particular soundtrack and the tastes of the individual listener. “SURROUND EX™” is a trademark of Dolby Laboratories. Used under authorization.

DTS was introduced in 1994 to provide 5.1 channels of discrete digital audio into home theater systems. DTS brings you premium quality discrete multichannel digital sound to both movies and music. DTS is a multichannel sound system designed to create full range digital sound reproduction. The no compromise DTS digital process sets the standard of quality for cinema sound by delivering an exact copy of the studio master recordings to neighborhood and home theaters. Now, every moviegoer can hear the sound exactly as the moviemaker intended. DTS can be enjoyed in the home for either movies or music on of DVD’s, LD’s, and CD’s. “DTS” and “DTS Digital Surround” are registered trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

• Neo:6 offers a music mode to expand stereo nonmatrix recordings into the five- or sixchannel layout, in a way which does not diminish the subtlety and integrity of the original stereo recording.

ENGLISH

DTS-ES Extended Surround is a new multichannel digital signal format developed by Digital Theater Systems Inc. While offering high compatibility with the conventional DTS Digital Surround format, DTS-ES Extended Surround greatly improves the 360-degree surround impression and space expression thanks to further expanded surround signals. This format has been used professionally in movie theaters since 1999. In addition to the 5.1 surround channels (FL, FR, C, SL, SR and LFE), DTS-ES Extended Surround also offers the SB (Surround Back) channel for surround playback with a total of 6.1 channels. DTS-ES Extended Surround includes two signal formats with different surround signal recording methods, as DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 and DTS-ES Matrix 6.1. “DTS”, “DTS-ES and “Neo:6” are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

The advantages of discrete multichannel systems over matrix are well known. But even in homes equipped for discrete multichannel, there remains a need for high-quality matrix decoding. This is because of the large library of matrix surround motion pictures available on disc and on VHS tape; and analog television broadcasts. The typical matrix decoder of today derives a center channel and a mono surround channel from two-channel matrix stereo material. It is better than a simple matrix in that it includes steering logic to improve separation, but because of its mono, band-limited surround it can be disappointing to users accustomed to discrete multichannel. Neo:6 offers several important improvements as follow, • Neo:6 provides up to six full-band channels of matrix decoding from stereo matrix material. Users with 6.1 and 5.1 systems will derive six and five separate channels, respectively, corresponding to the standard home-theater speaker layouts. • Neo:6 technology allows various sound elements within a channel or channels to be steered separately, and in a way which follows naturally from the original presentation.

The stereo CD is a 16-bit medium with sampling at 44.1 kHz. Professional audio has been 20- or 24bit for some time, and there is increasing interest in higher sampling rates both for recording and for delivery into the home. Greater bit depths provide extended dynamic range. Higher sampling rates allow wider frequency response and the use of anti-alias and reconstruction filters with more favorable aural characteristics. DTS 96/24 allows for 5.1channel sound tracks to be encoded at a rate of 96kHz/24bits on DVDVideo titles. When DVD-video appeared, it became possible to deliver 24-bit, 96 kHz audio into the home, but only in two channels, and with serious limitations on picture. This capability has had little use. DVD-audio allows 96/24 in six channels, but a new player is needed, and only analog outputs are provided, necessitating the use of the D/A converters and analog electronics provided in the player.

DTS 96/24 offers the following: 1. Sound quality transparent to the original 96/24 master. 2. Full backward compatibility with all existing decoders. (Existing decoders will output a 48 kHz signal) 3. No new player required: DTS 96/24 can be carried on DVD-video, or in the video zone of DVD-audio, accessible to all DVD players. 4. 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality fullmotion video, for music programs and motion picture soundtracks on DVD-video. “DTS” and “DTS 96/24” are trademarks of Digital Theater Systems, Inc.

About Dolby Pro Logic IIx Dolby Pro Logic IIx technology delivers a natural and immersing 7.1-channel listening experience to the home theater environment. A product of Dolby's expertise in surround sound and matrix decoding technologies, Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a complete surround sound solution that maximizes the entertainment experience from stereo as well as 5.1-channel encoded sources.
Dolby Pro Logic IIx is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic technology and can optimally decode the thousands of commercially available Dolby Surround encoded video cassettes and television programs with enhanced depth and spatiality. It can also process any high-quality stereo or Advanced Resolution 5.1-channel music content into a seamless 6.1- or 7.1-channel listening experience.

Dolby Digital identifies the use of Dolby Digital audio coding for such consumer formats as DVD and DTV. As with film sound, Dolby Digital can provide up to five full-range channels for left, center, and right screen channels, independent left and right surround channels, and a sixth (“.1”) channel for low-frequency effects. Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is an improved matrix decoding technology that provides better spatiality and directionality on Dolby Surround program material; provides a convincing three-dimensional soundfield on conventional stereo music recordings; and is ideally suited to bring the surround experience to automotive sound. While conventional surround programming is fully compatible with Dolby Surround Pro Logic II decoders, soundtracks will be able to be encoded specifically to take full advantage of Pro Logic II playback, including separate left and right surround channels. (Such material is also compatible with conventional Pro Logic decoders.) Dolby Digital EX creates six full-bandwidth output channels from 5.1-channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that derives three surround channels from the two in the original recording. For best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movies soundtracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX.

The Dolby Headphone technology provides a surround sound listening experience over headphones. When listening to multichannel content such as DVD movies over headphones, the listening experience is fundamentally different than listening to speakers. Since the headphone speaker drivers are covering the pinna of the ear, the listening experience differs greatly from traditional speaker playback. Dolby utilizes patented headphone perspective curves to solve this problem and provides a non-fatiguing, immersive, home theater listening experience. Dolby Headphone also delivers exceptional 3D audio from stereo material. Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories. “Dolby”, “Pro Logic”, and the doubleD symbol are trademarks of Dolby Laboratories.

Circle Surround II (CS-II) is a powerful and versatile multichannel technology. CS- II is designed to enable up to 6.1 multichannel surround sound playback from mono, stereo, CS encoded sources and other matrix encoded sources. In all cases the decoder extends it into 6 channels of surround audio and a LFE/subwoofer signal. The CS-II decoder creates a listening environment that places the listener “inside” music performances and dramatically improves both hi-fi audio conventional surround-encoded video material. CS-II provides composite stereo rear channels to greatly improve separation and image positioning– adding a heightened sense of realism to both audio and A/V productions. CS-II is packed with other useful feature like dialog clarity (SRS Dialog) for movies and cinema-like bass enrichment (TruBass). CS-II can enable the dialog to become clearer and more discernable in movies and it enables the bass frequencies contained in the original programming to more closely achieve low frequencies–overcoming the low frequency limitations of the speakers by full octave. Circle Surround II, Dialog Clarity, TruBass, SRS and symbol are trademarks of SRS Labs, Inc. Circle Surround II, Dialog Clarity and TruBass technology are incorporated under license from SRS Labs, Inc.

(SR8500 only) HDCD (High Definition Compatible Digital ®) is a patented process for delivering on Compact Disc the full richness and details of the original microphone feed. HDCD encoded CDs sound better because they are encoded with 20-bits of real musical information as compared to 16-bits for all other CDs. HDCD overcomes the limitation of the 16-bit CD format by using a sophisticated system to encode the additional four bits onto the CD while remaining completely compatible with the CD format. When listening to HDCD recordings, you hear more dynamic range, a focused 3-D sound stage, and extremely natural vocal and musical timbre. With HDCD, you get the body, depth and emotion of the original performance not a flat, digital imitation.

VIDEO IN/OUT (TV, DVD, VCR1, DSS/VCR2)

COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT/OUTPUT

These are the video inputs and outputs. There are 4 video inputs and 2 video outputs and each one includes both composite video and S-video configurations. Connect VCRs, DVD players, and other video components to the video inputs. The 2 video output channels can be used to be connected to video tape recorders for making recordings.

FM antenna terminal (75 ohms)

Connect an external FM antenna with a coaxial cable, or a cable network FM source.

AM antenna and ground terminals
Connect the supplied AM loop antenna. Use the terminals marked “AM” and “GND”. The supplied AM loop antenna will provide good AM reception in most areas. Position the loop antenna until you hear the best reception.

If your DVD player or other device has component video connectors, be sure to connect them to these component video connectors on the SR7500. The SR7500 has 4 component video input connectors to obtain the color information (Y, CB, CR) directly from the recorded DVD signal or other video component and one component video output connector to output it directly into the matrix decoder of the display device. By sending the pure DVD component video signal directly, the DVD signal forgoes the extra processing that normally would degrade the image. The result is vastly increased image quality, with incredibly life like colors and crisp detail.

Connect the AC power cables of components such as a DVD and CD player to these outlets. SWITCHED and UNSWITCHED outlets are provided. The one marked SWITCHED provides power only when the SR7500 is turned on and is useful for components which you use every time you play your system. The one marked UNSWITCHED is always live as long as the SR7500 is plugged into a live outlet. A component connected here may be left on permanently, or may be switched off with via its own power switch.

DC TRIGGER output terminal

Connect a device that needs to be triggered by DC under certain conditions (screen, power strip, etc…) Use the system OSD setup menu to determine the conditions by which these jack will be active.

Note: • This output voltage is for (status) control only, It is not sufficient for drive capability.

r

FLASHER IN (Flasher input terminal)

Caution: • In order to avoid potential turn-off thumps, anything plugged into these outlets should be powered up before the SR7500 is turned on. • The capacity of this AC outlet is 120W. Do not connect devices that consume electricity more than the capacity of these AC outlets. If the total power consumption of the connected devices exceeds the capacity, the protection circuit shuts down the power supply.

CONNECTIONS
SPEAKER PLACEMENT
The ideal surround speaker system for this unit is 7-speaker systems, using front left and right speakers, a center speaker, surround left and right speakers, a surround back left and right speakers, and a subwoofer. For best results we recommend that all front speakers be of the same type, with identical or similar driver units. This will deliver smooth pans across the front sound stage as the action moves from side to side. Your center channel speaker is very important as over 80 % of the dialog from a typical motion picture emanates from the center channel. It should possess similar sonic characteristics to the main speakers. Surround channel speakers need not be identical to the front channel speakers, but they should be of high quality. The surround center speaker is useful for playback of Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS-ES. One of the benefits of both Dolby Digital and DTS is that surround channels are discrete full range, while they were frequency limited in earlier “Pro Logic” type systems. Bass effects are an important part of home theater. For optimal enjoyment a subwoofer should be used as it is optimized for low frequency reproduction. If you have full range front speakers, however, they may be used in place of a subwoofer with proper setting of the switches in the menu system.
Surround Left Surround Back Left Front Center Surround Back Right
150° 30° 135° Surround Right 110° 90° 0° 22°

Surround left and right speakers When the SR7500 is used in surround operation, the preferred location for surround speakers is on the side walls of the room, at or slightly behind the listening position. The center of the speaker should face into the room. Surround back left and right speakers Surround back speakers are required when a full 7.1-channel system is installed. Speakers should be placed on a rear wall, behind the listening position. The center of the speaker should face into the room. Subwoofer We recommend using a sub-woofer to have maximum bass effect. Sub-woofer bears only low frequency range so you can place it any where in the room.

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 DTSES 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.

Note: • When playing Dolby Digital Surround EXencoded software in 6.1 channels, it is required to set the THX Surround EX 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.

ENGLISH

SURROUND MODE

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).

Notes: • Pro Logic IIx mode will decode as Pro Logic II mode when the SURROUND BACK SPEAKER is set NONE in SPEAKER SETUP menu. (See SPEAKER SETUP, page 19) • Pro Logic IIx mode is available for a 2ch input signal which is encoded in Dolby Digital or PCM format. • PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

dts MODE
(dts, Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music) This mode is for DTS encoded source materials such as LASER DISC, CD, and DVD. Neo:6 is for some 2 channel sources. dts : This mode is enabled when playing source materials encoded in dts multichannel. Playing multichannel encoded 5.1-channel dts sources provides five main audio channels (left, center, right, surround left and surround right) and Low Frequency Effect channel. dts-ES decoding is not available in this mode. The DTS mode cannot be used when an analog input has been selected. Neo:6 Cinema, Neo:6 Music This mode decodes 2-channel signals into 6channel signals using high-accuracy digital matrix technology. The DTS NEO:6 decoder has near-discrete properties in the frequency characteristics of the channels as well as in channel separation. According to the signals to be played back, DTS NEO:6 uses either the NEO:6 CINEMA mode optimized for movie playback or the NEO:6 MUSIC mode optimized for music playback.

Notes: • CS II mode is available for 2ch input signals which are encoded in Dolby Digital or PCM format. • PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

VIRTUAL
This mode creates a virtualized surround sound experience from a two-speaker (front L and R) playback system playing any multichannel audio source (such as found on DVDs and digital broadcasts), including Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic or DTS.

EX/ES
This mode provides 6.1 channel surround for DOLBY DIGITAL EX, DTS-ES encoded source material such as DVD. This mode cannot be used when an analog input has been selected.

* Depending on the player used, DTS play may produce a short noise. This is not a malfunction. * While signals from DTS-laser disc or CD are playing in another Surround mode, you cannot switch to digital input or from digital input to analog input by INPUT SETUP in SETUP MAIN MENU or the A/D button. * You can not listen to DTS-encorded course in Multi room. * The outputs for the VCR 1 OUT, DSS/VCR 2 OUT, TAPE OUT, and CD-R OUT output analog audio signals. Do not record from CDs or LDs that support DTS using these outputs. If you do, the DTS-encoded signal will be recorded as noise.

ENGLISH

STEREO
This mode bypasses all surround processing. In stereo program sources, the left and right channels play normally when PCM-audio or analog stereo is input. With Dolby Digital and DTS sources, the 5.1 multichannels are converted to two channel stereo. 96 kHz PCM source material can be played back in stereo mode.

Dolby Digital 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. Dolby Digital EX is not available in the system without surround back speaker(s). DTS-ES (Discrete 6.1, Matrix 6.1) DTS-ES adds the surround center channel audio to the DTS 5.1-channel format to improve the acoustic positioning and makes acoustic image movement more natural with the 6.1-channel reproduction. This receiver incorporates a DTS-ES decoder, which can handle DTS-ES Discrete-encoded and DTS-ES Matrix-encoded program sources from DVD, etc.. DTS-ES Discrete 6.1 features digital discrete recording of all channels including the surround back channel(s) and higher quality of audio reproduction. DTS-ES is not available in the system without a surround back speaker.

NOTE for Dolby Digital Surround EX signal * When playing Dolby Digital Surround EXencoded software in 6.1 channels, it is required to set the EX/ES mode. * Note that some of Dolby Digital Surround EXencoded software does not contain the identification signal. In this case, set the EX/ES mode manually. NOTE for 96kHz PCM audio * AUTO, PURE DIRECT, and STEREO modes can be used when playing PCM signals with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz (such as from DVD-Video discs that contain 24 bit, 96 kHz audio). If such signals are input during playback in one of the other surround modes, output from SR7500 will be muted. * Certain DVD player models inhibit digital output. For details, refer to the player’s operation manual. * Some DVD formatted discs feature copy protection. When using such disc, 96 kHz PCM signal is not output from the DVD player. For details, refer to the player’s operation manual. NOTE for HDCD signal (SR8500 only) * HDCD is effective only at the time of digital input. * AUTO, PURE DIRECT, and STEREO modes can be used when playing HDCD signals (such as from CD discs that contain HDCD). * You may not be able to play some HDCD source signals from certain CD players if you connect the player to the SR8500 digitally. This is because the digital signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling frequency, or frequency response) and the SR8500 cannot recognize the signal as HDCD data.

Notes: • Neo:6 mode is available to 2ch input signals which are encoded in Dolby Digital or PCM format. • PCM-audio signals can be subjected to Pro Logic processing when the sampling frequency is 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz.

PURE DIRECT
In the pure direct mode, the tone control circuit and bass management configuration are bypassed for full range frequency response and the purist audio reproduction. 96 kHz PCM source material can be played back in this mode.

MULTI CH. ST
This mode is used to create a wider, deeper and more natural soundstage from two channel source material. This is done by feeding the left channel signal to both left front and left surround speaker and the right channel signal to both right front and right surround speaker. Additionally, the center channel reproduces a mix of the right and left channel.

Notes: • Internal speaker size is setup to front L/R = LARGE, Center = LARGE, Surround L/R = LARGE and Subwoofer = YES automatically. Tone controls and additional processing are also defeated. • When you use this mode with certain DVD and CD players, performing operations such as “Skip” or “Stop” may momentarily interrupt the output.

CIRCLE SURROUND II (CSII-CINEMA, CSII-MUSIC, CSII-MONO)
Circle Surround is designed to enable multichannel surround sound playback of non-encoded and multichannel encoded material. Backward compatibility provides listeners with up to 6.1 channels of surround performance from entire collection of music and film, including broadcast, videotape and stereo recorded music. Depending on source material, you can select CSII-Cinema mode, CSII-Music mode or CSIIMono mode.

CAUTION
NOTE for DTS signal * Connected DVD-player, laser-disc player or CDplayer needs to support DTS-digital output. You may not be able to play some DTS source signals from certain CD players and LD players even if you connect the player to the SR7500 digitally. This is because the digital signal has been processed (such as the output level, sampling frequency, or frequency response) and the SR7500 cannot recognize the signal as DTS data.

Select the input source to record by turning the INPUT FUNCTION SELECTOR knob on the front panel or simply press the input selector buttons on the remote. The input source is now selected and you may watch or listen to it as desired. The currently selected input source signal is output to the TAPE OUT, CD-R/MD OUT, VCR1 OUT, and DSS/VCR2 OUT outputs for recording. Start recording to the recording component as desired.

Switch the video output source to VCR1 by simply pressing the input selector buttons on the remote. Switch the audio input source to CD by simply pressing the input selector buttons on the remote. Now “CD” has been selected as the audio input source and “VCR1” as the video input source.

7.1 CH INPUT
The SR7500 is equipped for future expansion through the use of Multi channel SACD multichannel player or DVD-Audio player. When this is selected, the input signals connected to the L(front left), R (front right), CENTER, SL (surround left), SR (surround right) and SBL (surround back left) and SBR (surround back right) channels of the 7.1 CH. In jacks are output directly to the front (left and right), center, surround (left and right) and surround back speaker systems as well as the pre-out jacks without passing through the surround circuitry. In addition, the signal input to the SW (subwoofer) jack is output to the PRE OUT SW (subwoofer) jack. When 7.1 CH. INPUT is selected, the last video input used remains routed to the Monitor Outputs. This permits simultaneous viewing with video sources

Notes: • If you change the input source during recording, you will record the signals from the newly selected input source. • You cannot record the surround effects. • Digital input signals are only output to the digital outputs. There is no conversion from digital to analog . When connecting CD players and other digital components, do not connect only the digital terminals, but the analog ones as well.

LIP.SYNC
Depending on the image device (TV, monitor, projector, etc.) connected to the SR7500, a time lag can occur between image signal processing and audio signal processing. Though minor, this time lag can interfere with movie and music enjoyment. The LIP.SYNC feature delays the audio signal with respect to the image signal output from the SR7500 to correct the time lag between the sound and image. It can be operated with the “LIP.SYNC” and and cursor buttons of the remote controller. Set the remote controller to the AMP mode before operating the LIP.SYNC feature. The initial setting is OFF (0 ms).The time lag can be adjusted in 10 ms steps up to 200 ms. Watch the picture on the image device (i.e., TV, monitor, projector, etc.) as you adjust the time lag.

PROGRAMMING MACROS
This remote control can program a series of button operations in sequence. Macros are a function that makes it possible to use a single button operation to perform a complex series of button operations any number of times. A single button can be programmed to perform up to 20 steps in sequence. A total of 20 buttons can be programmed with macros. • For example, the following sequence of operations can be programmed to a macro. Switch amplifier to DVD source → Set amplifier mode to AUTO → Play DVD player → Switch TV to video input The factory default for the transmission interval (time) between macro operations is one second, but these signal transmission intervals can be set between approximately 0.5 seconds and 5 seconds in the Setup mode. Each transmission interval can be adjusted independently when programming or revising a macro.

(seconds). • Use the cursor button to increase the time and the button to decrease the time. The interval time can be set from 0.5 seconds to 5 seconds. • To stop the time adjustment, press the D5 (CANCEL) direct button. 4-5. Press the OK cursor button . 4-6.

Note: • If the signal transmission interval (interval time) is changed using the Setup mode (described later), this transmission interval is applied to all macro programs. To change individual signal transmission intervals, use the procedures in this section for programming macros and revising macros. • No signals are transmitted while programming a macro. • The M button, > button, cursor buttons, MEMO button, CLEAR button, and VOL buttons cannot be programmed. • If no button is pressed for approximately one minute during programming, the remote control returns to the state before macro mode. In this case, the macro program is not stored. • When executing macro mode, performing the source switching operation two or more times only changes the remote control mode and does not transmit any signals. (Switching of the source selector of the amplifier is valid only once.)

Individual Paper - Assignments from the Readings

...Individual Paper - Assignments from the readings In this short essay I will try to explain Limited Liability Corporation and partnerships. I will also try to put in perspective if I were to establish my own business what would I choose and why would I choose one over the other. In order to explain this we must first know what is Limited Liability Corporation and liability partnership. According to smallbusiness.chron.com a liability corporation or company is LLC owners, called "members," can manage their businesses or hire professional managers. In addition, LLCs enjoy a lot of flexibility. For instance, they can have as many members as they like, and corporations are allowed to be members. LLCs enjoy freedom from the state-mandated membership and management reporting requirements that corporations have. Most important, LLCs do not have to pay taxes. Instead, their profits and losses are passed through to their members' individual tax returns in the same way as a partnership. As a result, members enjoy the advantages of avoiding the "double taxation" of corporations as well as receiving tax relief from the poor performance of their LLCs. Also according to smallbusiness.chron.com a liability partnership is LLPs have the same tax advantages of LLCs. They cannot, however, have corporations as owners. Perhaps the most significant difference between LLCs and LLPs is that LLPs must have at least one managing partner who bears liability for the partnership's actions. With an...

Irish-Dutch Sandwich - Tax Planning

...use of a combination of Irish and Dutch subsidiary companies to shift profits to low or no tax jurisdictions. In this essay I am going to explore this tax avoidance technique and give a step-by-step guide as to how large MNC’s such as Google use it. First I am going to give an overview of this tax avoidance technique and why it is advantageous for an MNC to use. This technique is just one of a class of similar international tax avoidance schemes that has allowed MNC’s to dramatically reduce their overall corporate tax rates. It in essence involves sending profits through one Irish company, to a Dutch company and finally to a second Irish company headquartered in a tax haven. These techniques are most prominently used by technology companies because these firms can easily shift large portions of profits to other countries by assigning intellectual property rights to subsidiaries abroad. Each step in the ‘double Irish with a Dutch sandwich’ technique involves arranging transactions between subsidiary companies to take advantage of the idiosyncrasies of varied national tax codes. For decades MNC’s have been taking advantage of the ‘quirk’ in the Irish tax law that allowed a company based abroad to be registered as an Irish company. For example, a company based in a tax haven such as Bermuda can be an “Irish” company and subsequently lead to firms legally avoiding paying billions of dollars in corporation tax. In 1988, the UK introduced laws to prevent the use of UK incorporated...

Sociological Explanations of Unequal Distributions of Wealth and Income in Contemporary Britain

...explaining within this essay. One sociological explanation for the unequal distribution of wealth and income in contemporary Britain is because it is necessary for the maintenance of society. This is argued by functionalists such as Davis and Moore who suggest that inequality in wealth and income is very significant due to the fact that some jobs are seen as more functionally important than others. As well as this, they believe that meritocratic values such as wages need to be imbalanced in order for the most capable people to have the best and highest jobs. A prime example of this would be of road cleaners who would earn about 9,000 a year where as a C.E.O of a computing company earns over millions a year. This links to contemporary Britain because it portrays how income and even wealth is unevenly shared out between proletariats and the bourgeoisie and most importantly it indicates at how low-paid wages would be the result of poverty. This theory can be criticised because it infers to some jobs being more important than others which is not true as every job in society contributes in helping society progress and become better, in this case being a road cleaner would be just as important as being a C.E.O of a retail company. Similar to functionalism, the new right would argue that wealth and income inequality is functional for society because it helps the rich to neglect and refuse many things which help society and which keeps society up and running e.g taxes which massively goes...

Sonny's Bebop Rhetorical Analysis

...with the author’s intent of portraying the main theme through the two brother’s story. The brother’s start off by being polar opposites in their pursuit “to survive post-Korean War Harlem (Savery 167) in his own way” (Sherard 692). The narrator tries to have a respectable living by “teaching algebra and ignoring the struggles” of his childhood, his brother, and even his connection to the community. Sonny, his brother, goes down a darker path in his quest to get away from Harlem through “musical membership,” which drives them further apart initially (Sherard 692). Sonny penetrates the barrier between them with a letter from prison. At the time they start to reconnect, the narrator also starts to hold the burdens of the community instead of “avoiding” them (Sherard 696). Sherard starts to find the bridge between the brothers reconciliation and music after narrator hears of his father’s death and begins to “understand Sonny’s personal story...traditionally related through the blues” (697). At the time Sonny runs away from Isabel’s house, the absence of his music “ demonstrates a...

Interpersonal Communication

...throughout the duration of the discussion: Labour’s party leader, Miliband, expectedly is passionate about mansion tax and as is Klass. Yet, it must be taken into consideration the fact that the conversation between Miliband and Klass has external participants: the live audience, ITV viewers and other members of the panel; this therefore may affect one’s performance. Although their performances seem “sincere” they could potentially be “cynical” (Goffman, E. (1959) The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life. Garden City, NY: Doubleday). For example, as Miliband’s purpose of being on “The Agenda” is to promote the Labour party’s policies and therefore may portray a cynical performance in order to get votes in 2015’s general election. In this essay, I will be analysing the non-verbal communication: such as gestures and eye contact, as well as verbal language including such things as jargon in order to examine the interpersonal communication within this discussion. “Assertiveness is pertinent to interactions between different groups of professionals, especially where the...

O’neill and Donaldson on Mncs Moral Obligations, If Any, on a Global Context

...financially sound. According to some philosophers, including Marx, the public must be protected from and by all organizations in their respective capacity; this includes the state and MNCs that, more often than not, have more power than the states in which they operate. Take, for instance, an MNC in El Salvador, profiting from the affordability of the production process, profiting from the lack of limitations within this one ‘weak-state’ and profiting from the sales accomplished overseas. The state of El Salvador is much weaker than an MNC such as Nike; in this example then, the MNC has the obligation to better the conditions of the state, not deprive it, aid or neglect its social responsibility to uphold ethics while practicing enterprising. This essay questions the reasoning behind Donaldson in Rights and Kinds of Obligations, arguing that O’Neill has a more fair system of distributing the right aid for the protection of all rights. The main question then is: what is the moral obligation of MNCs in the global context after having reviewed both Donaldson and O’Neill’s articles? Summary O’Neill in Agents of Justice asserts that to be capable is not the same as saying that one has a capacity. Capacity is different from capability in that it is innate; it is a skill within us that could (if allowed) be used for the (in) justice of mankind. Capability is the freedom to realize the achievements through this capacity, meaning, if one has the capacity but is not...

Passengers in Air, Supply and Demand Analysis

...MODULE TITLE: Microeconomics, Introductory PROGRAMME: BA in BE TITLE OF ESSAY: Passengers in air, supply and demand analysis Air transportation is very valued type of transport by people, especially because it is time-saving, when you are travelling to countries, which are long-distance from each other, and mostly, it is the only way to get an access to geographically isolated areas. Moreover, air transportation enables the access to people, capital, markets, and resources. As, a result, the availability of air transportation services effectively increases in most of the countries. It has also an effect on economic activity. Different factors dominate the relationship between economic and air transportation. Because of these unique factors, the nature of air transportation flows differs among the economics. In this paper, I would like to analyze what are the main factors of demand and supply that have an impact on air transportation market in Eurozone area. Like any other business, the airline industry is impacted by changes in its external environment. Prices have a strong impact on demand of airline industry.

There are several factors that have influence on price dynamics; political, legal, economical, social, and technological. Knowledge...
