9.  Measure the distance from each speaker to the listening position, and write it down. 

(Even if all of your speakers are the same distance from the listening position, you will 

need to do this.)

10.  Enter the distance that you measured from each speaker to the listening position. 

Select  a  speaker,  then  use  the  Left/Right  buttons  to  change  the  measurement. 

You can enter distances between 0 and 30 feet (9.1m). The default distance for all 

speakers is 10 feet. 

•  If you want to use metric measurements, select “Unit” and use the Left/Right buttons 

to change the units to meters.

11.  When you’re finished, press the OSD/Menu button to exit the menu system.
