Nevertheless, each listening environment has many variables, like wall reflections, and you may obtain better results using “BEHD” if your speakers are located high above the listening position, even if they are to the immediate left and right.

Therefore, although it may result in a setting contrary to the above explanation, we recommend that you playback multi channel surround encoded software and select the setting that provides a good sense of spaciousness and that best succeeds in forming a cohesive space between the surround sound from the surround speakers and the sound of the front speakers. If you are not sure which sounds best, select “BEHD” and then use the speaker distance parameter and speaker level adjustments to obtain proper balance.
