Sound Surround Enjoying

Multi-Channel Surround Setup

pCenter speaker distance

CENTER XX.X meter

Initial setting : 5.0 meter

Set the distance from your listening position to the center speaker.

Center speaker distance can be set in 0.1 meter (1 foot) steps from 1.0 to 12.0 meters (3 to 40 feet).

pRear speaker distance

REAR XX.X meter

Initial setting : 3.5 meter

Set the distance from your listening position to the rear (left or right) speaker.

Rear speaker distance can be set in 0.1 meter (1 foot) steps from 1.0 to 12.0 meters (3 to 40 feet).

If both speakers are not placed an equal distance from your listening position, set the distance to the closest speaker.

zAbout speaker distances

Please note that, setting the speaker distance closer than the actual location of the speakers will cause a delay in the output of the sound from that speaker. In other words, the speaker will sound like it is farther away.

For example, setting the center speaker distance 1~2 m (3~6 feet) closer than the actual speaker position will create a fairly realistic sensation of being “inside” the screen. If you cannot obtain a satisfactory surround effect because the rear speakers are too close, setting the rear speaker distance closer (shorter) than the actual distance will create a larger soundstage.

Adjusting these parameter while listening to the sound often results in much better surround sound. Give it a try!

pSub woofer distance

S.W XX.X meter

Initial setting : 5.0 meter

Set the distance from your listening position to the sub woofer.

Sub woofer distance can be set in 0.1 meter (1 foot) steps from 1.0 to 12.0 meters (3 to 40 feet).

pSub woofer phase polarity

S.W PHASE [NORMAL]

Initial setting : NORMAL

Set the sub woofer phase polarity.

There is usually no problem when the sub woofer phase polarity is set to "NORMAL". However, depending on the type of front speakers, the position of the sub woofer, and the cut-off frequency of the sub woofer, setting the phase polarity to "REVERSE" may produce better bass.

Besides bass reproduction, the richness and tightness of the overall sound may also be affected. While listening from the main listening position, select the setting that best suits your environment.

pRear speaker position*

REAR POSI. [BEHIND]

Initial setting : BEHIND

This parameter lets you specify the location of your rear speakers for proper implementation of the Digital Cinema Sound “VIRTUAL” sound fields. Refer to the illustration below.

Select “SIDE” if the location of your rear speakers corresponds to section A.

Select “MIDDLE” if the location of your rear speakers corresponds to section B.

Select “BEHIND” if the location of your rear speakers corresponds to section C.

This setting only effects the “VIRTUAL” sound fields.
