MUSIC SURR
A proprietary Lexicon listening mode.
Similar to the MUSIC SURROUND listening mode available in
other Lexicon products.
Designed for enhanced playback of 2-channel stereo music
sources recorded in real spaces and for playback of recordings
that contain added reverb.
Extracts ambient sounds from the input source, then sends
these sounds to all speakers. Ambient sounds are heard from all
directions, creating a realistic playback presentation that
simulates what listeners experience in real spaces.
Recommended for classical music sources.

L7 MUSIC SURRMODE ADJUST
PLII +
Designed for playback of Dolby Surround-encoded sources.
Uses Dolby Pro Logic II decoding to derive five channels from
Dolby Surround-encoded sources.
Applies THX re-equalization to simulate high-frequency rolloffs
that occur in movie theaters. Most films are mixed for movie
theaters, and might sound too bright when played back in
home theaters without re-equalization.
Applies THX timbre matching to minimize timbre differences
between the front and surround channels, which results in
smoother sound movements between them.
Recommended for home theaters with THX-certified speakers.
