x FRT DIST. (Front speaker
distance)
Lets you set the distance from your listening
position to the front speakers (A). If both
front speakers are not placed an equal distance
from your listening position, set the distance as
the average distance between the front
speakers.
x CNT DIST. (Center speaker
distance)
Lets you set the distance from your listening
position to the center speaker. Center speaker
distance should be set from a distance equal to
the front speaker distance (A) to a distance
1.5 meters closer to your listening position
(B).
x SL DIST. (Surround left speaker
distance)
Lets you set the distance from your listening
position to the surround left speaker. Surround
left speaker distance should be set from a
distance equal to the front speaker distance
(A) to a distance 4.5 meters closer to your
listening position (C).
x SR DIST. (Surround right
speaker distance)
Lets you set the distance from your listening
position to the surround right speaker.
Surround right speaker distance should be set
from a distance equal to the front speaker
distance (A) to a distance 4.5 meters closer to
your listening position (D).
x SB DIST. (Surround back
speaker distance)
Lets you set the distance from your listening
position to the surround back speaker.
Surround back speaker distance should be set
from a distance equal to the front speaker
distance (A) to a distance 4.5 meters closer to
your listening position (E).
Tip
The receiver lets you to input the speaker position in
terms of distance. However, it is not possible to set
the center speaker further than the front speakers.
Also, the center speaker cannot be set more than
1.5 meter closer from the front speakers.
Likewise, the surround and surround back speakers
can not be set further away from the listening
position than the front speakers. And they can be no
more than 4.5 meter closer. This is because incorrect
speaker placement is not conducive to the
enjoyment of surround sound.
Please note that, setting the speaker distance closer
than the actual location of the speakers will cause a
delay in the output of the sound from that speaker. In
other words, the speaker will sound like it is further
away.
For example, setting the center speaker distance
1-2 meter closer than the actual speaker position will
create a fairly realistic sensation of being “inside”
the screen. If you cannot obtain a satisfactory
surround effect because the surround speakers are
too close, setting the surround speaker distance
closer (shorter) than the actual distance will create a
larger sound stage.
Adjusting these parameter while listening to the
sound often results in much better surround sound.
