Speaker Distance

To get the best from surround sound, it’s important that the sound from each speaker reaches the listener at the same time. To achieve this, you need to specify the dis- tance from each speaker to the listening position.

1Measure and make a note of the distance from each speaker to the listening position.

2Press the [RECEIVER] button fol-

lowed by the [SETUP] button on the remote controller.

3 Use the Up and Down []/[ ] buttons to select “2. Sp Dis- tance,” and then press the [ENTER] button.

4While “Unit” is displayed, use the

Left and Right []/[ ] buttons to select “feet” or “meters”.

feet: Distances in feet. Can be set from 1 to 30 feet in 1-foot steps.

meters: Distances in meters. Can be set from 0.3 to 9 meters in 0.3-meter steps.

5	Use the Down [	] button to
	select “Front,” and use the Left
	and Right [ ]/[	] buttons to

specify the distance for the “front speakers,” then press the Down

[] button to select the next speaker.

6Repeat step 5 for all speakers.

Note:

Speakers that you set to No or None in the Speaker Configuration (page 48) cannot be selected.

7Press the [SETUP] button.

Setup closes.

Notes:

•The Center and Subwoofer distances can be set up to 5 ft. (1.5 m) more or less than the Front distance. For example, if the Front distance is set to 20 ft. (6 m), the Center and Subwoofer distances can be set between 15 and 25 ft. (4.5 and 7.5 m).

•The Surround and Surround Back distances can be set up to 5 ft. (1.5 m) more or 15 ft. (4.5 m) less than the Front distance. For example, if the Front distance is set to 20 ft. (6 m), the SurrRight, Surr Left, Surr Back R, and Surr Back L distances can be set between 5 and 25 ft. (1.5 and 7.5 m).
