As explained above in Step Two – Measure Speaker Distances, some- times the speakers are placed at different distances from the listening position, which can muddy the sound, as sounds are heard earlier or later than desired.
Even if all of your speakers are placed the same distance from the lis- tening position, you should not skip this menu.
On the Manual Setup menu, move the cursor to the DELAY ADJUST line and press the Set Button to display the Delay Adjust menu.

This menu requires you to enter the distance from each speaker to the listening position, which you measured in Step Two – Measure Speaker Distances.
The default unit of measurement is in feet. If you wish to change the unit to meters, move the cursor down to the UNIT line, and use the ‹/› Buttons to change the unit to METER.
Use the ⁄/¤ Buttons to move the cursor to the FL (front left) line; then use the ‹/› Buttons to change the measurement as needed. Use the ⁄/¤ Buttons to move to each speaker in turn – CEN (center), FR (front right), SR (surround right), SL (surround left) and SUB (subwoofer).
DELAY RESET: This line is used if you wish to reset all of the speaker delay settings to the factory default of 10 feet (3.0 meters) at once. Use the ‹/› Buttons to change the setting of OFF to ON. If you change any speaker’s setting, this line will automatically revert to OFF.
A/V SYNC DELAY: This line allows you to compensate for a situation in which one of your source devices, or your video display, introduces a significant amount of video processing that causes the audio and video parts of the signal to get out of sync. This is known as a “lip sync” prob- lem. You may delay the audio for all channels by up to 80 milliseconds to compensate.
NOTE: We recommend that you adjust the A/V Sync Delay using the Delay Button on the remote, rather than in this menu, so that you can view the picture while adjusting the audio delay. With the program playing, press the Delay Button, and the A/V SYNC DELAY message will appear on the front panel and in the
Move the cursor to the BACK TO MANUAL SETUP line and press the Set Button to return to the Manual Setup menu, or simply press the OSD Button to exit the menu system.
Step Four – EzSet Output Level Calibration
This is an important step in the configuration process, and should not be skipped.
By now you should have connected all of your speakers and sources and your video display. You should have turned on the receiver and used the Manual Setup menus to program each of your speakers as Large or Small.
Sit in the listening position with the remote control, and make sure to eliminate external noises for the few minutes needed to run the EzSet procedure.
Use the volume control buttons on the remote to adjust the volume to
Now point the remote at the receiver and press the SPL Button until the LED blinks, then press the “5” Key. The procedure works best if you hold the remote at about ear level, pointed toward the receiver. Try not to tilt the remote out of line with the IR receiver on the AVR’s front panel.
