Adjusting speaker delay time/speaker level
When speakers cannot be placed at equal distances, change speaker settings to
enjoy surround effects as if they were equally placed.
Example:
If the centre speaker is closer to the listening position than others by about 90 cm, set
as follows.
!
Speaker delay time setting
By adjusting speaker delay time, differences in the speaker distance can be cor-
rected. This offers you the sound quality as if the speakers are installed at the same
distance from the listening position.
Notes:
"
When the listening mode is "STEREO", the delay time cannot be changed.
"
You cannot change the delay time of the front speakers and the subwoofer.
"
In the "REAR DELAY" setting, the left and right speakers are adjusted at the same
time, not individually.
Sound from the centre speaker needs to be delayed for 90 cm. The delay time of 1
ms corresponds to 30 cm. Set the delay time to 3 MS. Sound is heard as if all the
speakers were equally placed.
1 In "Speaker delay time setting", set the centre speaker to 3 MS.
2 The centre speaker is closer to the listener than others. In "Speaker level set-
ting", adjust the centre speaker level (see page 46).
3 In "Test tone", check the sound from each speaker (see page 46).
