SOUND 2 SP DISTANCE

(speaker distance)

Use this feature to adjust the delay applied to center and rear center channel sounds. This feature works when there is sound output from the center speakers with a source such as Dolby Digital or DTS. Ideally, the center speaker and the rear speakers should be the same distance from the main listening position as the left and right main speakers. However, in most home situations, the center speaker or the rear center speaker is placed in line with the main speakers or the rear speakers. By delaying the sound from the center speaker and the rear speakers, you can adjust the apparent distance from the center speaker and the rear speakers to the main listening position to make it seem the same as the distance between the listening position and main left and right speakers.

1 Press u / d to select “UNIT”.

2 Press j / i to select the unit “meters” or “feet” to be used in setting.

3 Press u / d to select the speaker for which you want to adjust the delay.

4 Press j / i to set the delay.
