MANUAL SETUP

BEAM TRAVEL LENGTH (Beam travel length)

A certain amount of delay must be applied to the sound from each channel so that all sounds can arrive at the listening position at the same time. This menu sets the distance that sound beams travel after being output and reflected off the wall until they arrive at the listening position and adjusts the delay applied to the respective channel.

The lines in the illustration below indicate the distance.

FOCAL LENGTH (Focal length)

Use to set the distance from the front of this unit to the focal point of output for each channel to achieve an expansive feeling for each channel.

The focal points except for the center channel should be set near the reflection points on the walls. The shorter the distance, the larger the expansion.

Choices: 0.3 m to 24.0 m (1.0 ft to 80.0 ft)

Front L adjusts the distance the front left channel sound beams travel.

Front R adjusts the distance the front right channel sound beams travel.

Center adjusts the distance the center channel sound beams travel.

Surround L adjusts the distance the surround left channel sound beams travel.

Surround R adjusts the distance the surround right channel sound beams travel.

Choices: –1.0 m to +13.0 m (–3.5 ft to +43.5 ft)

Adjust toward – (minus) to move the focus outward and adjust toward + (plus) to move the focus toward the normal position.

Front L adjusts the focal length for the front left sound beams.

Front R adjusts the focal length for the front right sound beams.

Center adjusts the focal length for the center sound beams. Initial setting: –0.3 m (–1.0 ft)

Surround L adjusts the focal length for the surround left sound beams.

Surround R adjusts the focal length for the surround right sound beams.
