When the distance between the listening point and the center speaker is close to the distance to the front speakers, set the delay time to 0 ms. Increase the delay time when the distance to the center speaker is shorter.
•A 1ms increase/decrease of delay time is equivalent to a 30 cm change in distance.
R.SP : Adjusts the rear speaker delay time.
Delay time can be set between 0 ms and 15 ms. When the distance between the listening point and the rear speakers is close to the distance to the front speakers, set the delay time to 0ms. Increase the delay time when the distance to the rear speakers is shorter.
•A 1ms increase/decrease of delay time is equivalent to a 30 cm change in distance.
