3 SP DLY TIME (speaker delay
time)
Use this feature to adjust the delay of the center channel
sounds. This feature works when there is sound output
from the center speaker, with a source like Dolby Digital
or DTS, etc. Ideally, the center speaker should be the
same distance from the main listening position as the left
and right speakers.
However, in most home situations, the center speaker is
placed in line with the front speakers. By delaying the
sound from the center speaker, the apparent distance from
the center speaker to the main listening position can be
adjusted to make it seem the same as the distance
between the front left and right speaker to the listening
position. Adjusting the delay time for the center speaker
is especially important for giving depth to the dialogue.
Control range:
CENTER .............0 to 5 ms
Initial setting:
CENTER .............0 ms
Press j / i to increase or decrease the delay
of the center channel sounds.
y
Increasing the delay by 1 ms simulates moving the speakers
about 30 cm (one foot) farther away from the listening position.
