Adjusting the delay time:

When enjoying 5.1ch surround playback, it is ideal to choose a listening position that is the same distance from each speaker. By adjusting the delay time of center/surround speakers, you can virtually create an ideal listening environment (as if the center/surround speakers were at their ideal locations respectively as below).
