The next step in setting up the loudspeakers is to set the speaker delays to
ensure that the sound image is correctly focused.
Delaying the sound from a speaker by 1 millisecond is equivalent to moving
the speaker one foot (300mm) further away from the listener.
Because the center speaker is usually physically closer to the listener than the
main left and right speakers you should add a delay to the center speaker to
ensure that the sound from all three front speakers reaches the listener at the
same time. In the case of the rear speakers you will normally add a delay to
increase the spaciousness of the sound.
To change the speaker delays
•
Press the
VOL
V
button to highlight the
DELAY SETTINGS
option and
press the
SEL
V
button to select it.
The
DELAY SETTINGS
menu will be displayed:
•
Highlight each of the speakers in turn, using the
VOL
A
or
VOL
V
buttons, and use the
SEL
A
and
SEL
V
buttons to adjust the delay.
You can adjust the front left, front right, center, and subwoofer delays between
0.0 and 5.0 milliseconds in 0.5 millisecond steps.
You can adjust the rear left and rear right speaker delays between 0.0
milliseconds and 15.0 milliseconds in 0.5 milliseconds steps.
