DSP Program Delay Time Settings

Each DSP program is designed to draw out the maximum effect from the source audio. The CinemaStation provides the DSP programs with optimum value of parameters including reflected sound, reverberant sound and delay time. Among these parameters, you can change the delay time to match to your speaker positions. Delay time is the time gap in playback between front speaker audio and surround speaker audio. The bigger the value becomes the later the surround audio plays back, and the larger the sound space feels. Since delay time is preset at an optimum value for each DSP program, the default value (page 69) will work well for your listening enjoyment. However, depending on the audio source or listening environment, you can adjust each DSP program the way you like.
