Adjusting the Center Delay Time

Adjusting the Delay Time

The center delay time is the time difference between the beginning of the sound from the main speakers and the beginning of the sound from the center speaker. When the other DSP program except for SILENT CINEMA is selected, it is possible to adjust the center delay time. This adjusts the delay between the main sound (on the main speakers) and dialog, etc. (on the center speaker).

This makes sounds from the left main, center and right main speakers reach your listening position at the same time. This is achieved by delaying the sound from the center speaker if the distance from the center speaker to your listening position is shorter than the distance from the right and left main speakers to your listening position. Each time the value of the center delay time is added by 1 ms, the center speaker is positioned farther from your listening position by about 30 cm virtually.

When the selected DSP program is VIRTUAL SURROUND, DOLBY DIGITAL/DOLBY PRO LOGIC/ DTS or SILENT CINEMA, it is possible to adjust the delay time. The delay time is that time difference between when the sound from the main speakers can be heard and the surround sound can be heard.

The larger the value, the later the sound field effect is generated.

–For Dolby Digital (except for 2 ch)/DTS input: 0 to 15 ms

–For the other inputs: 15 to 30 ms

If the delay time level of a signal input is adjusted, that of other signal inputs will be changed. For example, when the delay time of the Dolby Digital (except for 2 ch)/DTS inputs is adjusted from 0 ms (minimum) to 5 ms, that of the other signal inputs is adjusted from 15 ms (minimum) to 20 ms automatically.

After adjusting the menu functions, press MENU. The input display returns.
