Using Surround Sound
Adjusting the delay time (PRO LOGIC sound field only)
You can make the surround sound more effective by delaying the output from the surround speakers (delay time). You can select from three delay times, S (15 mS), M (20 mS), and L (30 mS). For example, if you’ve placed the surround speakers in a large room or apart from your listening position, set the delay time shorter.
1Start playing a program source encoded with Dolby Surround sound.
2Press SURR.
The current delay time appears in the display.
3Press MENU +/– to select the level you prefer, such as “DELAY S”, “DELAY M” or “DELAY L”.
