When we started building surround-sound preamp/processors, we demanded

more than advanced features and up-to-the-minute technology. We wanted our

surround-sound preamp/processors to be every bit as durable and reliable as

our power amplifiers. And they are.

Case in point: the ATP7500.

Despite its modest price, the ATP7500 is built like a tank. We selected the

ATP7500’s premium components for their performance and reliability, and used

double-sided glass-epoxy circuit boards to ensure that those parts remain firmly soldered

in place. We package all this in a durable steel chassis with stainless-steel hardware and a

tough powder-coated finish. The end result is a processor that’s as technologically

advanced as a brand-new luxury sedan, but as rugged and reliable as a classic pickup truck.

The ATP7500 offers surround-sound technologies to suit any program material, from VHS

tape to multichannel SACD. It includes Dolby Digital EX

and Pro Logic II

, DTS ES-Discrete

and 7.1-channel inputs that accommodate DVD-Audio and SACD players. The 7.1-channel

input includes bass management functions, so you can adjust the output of your DVD-A or

SACD player to suit your speaker system. Many processors with DVD-A/SACD inputs lack

this feature—and as a result, often discard much of the bass in the recordings.

Custom installers and advanced do-it-yourselfers will appreciate the ATP7500’s many

convenience features. We start with a learning remote that can control every component

in your system. An RS-232 interface makes it easy to control the ATP7500 from advanced

touchscreen controllers such as Crestron

and AMX

. A second-zone output permits the

use of any video or audio source device in another room. Remote triggers let the ATP7500

control motorized screens, lighting, etc. Discrete on and off buttons make it easy to control

the ATP7500 from a programmable remote. Buffered video outputs allow the ATP7500 to

feed distant TVs through long video cables. And all

of the ATP7500’s setup parameters can be

downloaded to a computer, making it

easy for a home user to restore the

settings, and for a custom installer

to program multiple ATP7500s.

The back panel includes six composite

video and six S-video inputs; two

high-definition component video

inputs, plus eight analog and six

digital audio inputs. There’s also an

AM/FM stereo tuner, a feature found

in few high-end preamp/processors.

You can be forgiven for thinking

that modern technology and

old-fashioned reliability are

mutually exclusive...but the

ATP7500 proves that they can

co-exist in the same product.
