This menu allows you to enter the distance from your listening position to the various speakers. The TGP-5 will then automatically adjust and correct the speaker delay times. The sound from each speaker should arrive at the listener at the correct time. The distance measurement is not criti- cal, and a visual estimate is usually adequate.

The procedure is as follows:

 

 

1. Measure or visually estimate

 

 

(in feet and inches) how far

 

 

each speaker is away from the

 

 

center listening position of your

 

 

home theater.

 

 

2. In the OSD menu, use the

 

 

remote control joystick arrow

 

 

buttons to enter the distance

 

 

in feet and inches for each

3. The TGP-5 automatically sets
