starting point mentioned here.

Listen to the reference channel and use it to measure the target channel. Stand facing the two speakers with your

arms outstretched pointing at each speaker. Try to make the two tones sound as if they are

arriving simultaneously at a

position slightly in front of you and between your arm span. The distance can be set within a range of 0.5 to 45 feet in 0.5 foot steps.

When you press ENTER you will automatically go to the next channel.
