sources, you will need to use the 6.1CH-INPUT
sub menu. (See page 18).

2-2 SPEAKERS DISTANCE

Use this parameter to specify the distance of each
speaker’s position from the listening position. The
delay time is automatically calculated according to
these distances.
Begin by determining the ideal or most commonly
used seating position in the room.
This is important for the timing of the acoustics to
create the proper sound space that the SR6400
and today’s sound systems are able to produce.
Note : For speakers that you have selected “

None

the Speaker Configuration sub-menu will not appear
here. (There are several useful books and special
DVD and LD’s available to guide you through proper
home theater configuration. If you are unsure, have
your Marantz dealer perform the installation for you.
They are trained professionals familiar with even
the most sophisticated custom installations.
Marantz recommends the WWW.CEDIA.ORG
website for further information about this).
