Speaker Distance

The speaker distance setting cannot be changed while a pair of headphones is con- nected, speaker set B is on, or the multichan- nel input is being used.

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.
