For example, in the above diagram, measure the distance (in feet) from the primary listening position to the Front Left or Front Right Speaker. Your Front Right and Left speakers should measure the same distance. If they do not, please adjust them if possible. Enter the distance of the Front Speakers (n in the above picture) using the left/right ARROW buttons.
Next, measure the distance (in feet) from center speakers (o) to the listening position. Move the cursor to highlight the Center speaker in the Channel Delay setup page, and enter the distance (as close as possible) in feet using the left/right ARROW buttons. Repeat for each speaker in the system (Center, Left Surround, Right Surround, Left Surround Back, Right Surround Back and Subwoofer) as available. The DVD player will insert appropriate delay to the center, subwoofer and surround channels to make sure sound wave from different speakers arrive at the listener at the same time.
Distance between the surround speakers and the listener must be shorter than or equal to that between the front speakers and the listener.
In case the channel delay settings cannot match your speaker configuration, please set all distances to the same and use your receiver/amplifier to set the channel delay.
