Setting the distance to the listening position

Ideally, all the speakers in a home cinema system, should be set up at equal distances from the listener. The central speaker should also be positioned in line with the front speakers. If these preconditions are met, you do not need to set a time delay for the sound, because the default setting is »0ms«.

However, central and front loudspeakers are often set up closer to the listener. In this case, the sound must be electronically delayed by a fraction of a second. This is done using the sound time delay func- tion.

If the central speaker is no more than 50 cm from the line between the front speakers, the setting is not necessary. If the distance is greater, you must find out the difference between the distances from the listener to the front speakers and from the listener to the central speaker. Enter the travel time of the sound in milliseconds (ms) (»0ms« to »5ms«). One metre roughly corresponds to 3 milli- seconds.

When using surround speakers, you must also find out the differ- ence between the distances from the listener to the front speakers and from the listener to the surround speakers. Enter the travel time of the sound from »0ms«, »3ms« to »12ms«, »15ms«. One metre roughly corresponds to 3 milliseconds.
