Fine Tuning Your System

FINE CHANNEL DELAY

The following steps show you how to adjust the delay level of your speakers more finely than in the NORMAL setup (see page 43). Adding a slight delay to some speakers is necessary to achieve proper sound depth, separation as well as an effective surround sound effect. Do this procedure if you want to try and get even finer surround sound.

The main difference with this setup method and the CHANNEL DELAY setup method in NORMAL setup is that here the test tone sounds from a reference channel and you use that to measure the target speaker (that is, the speaker whose level you want to adjust).

4Adjust the distance of each channel

using the 5∞ buttons.

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 postion slightly in front of you and between your arm span. The distance can be set within a range of 0.1 m to 9.0 m in 0.1 m steps.

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

5Press ENTER to select a new channel. Repeat step 4 for every channel.
