(Continued)
The best sound will be achieved by placing the front speak-
ers, center speaker and surround speakers at the same dis-
tance from the listener.
When some of the speakers are at a different distance from
the listener, you can select a speaker delay to make it seem
as though the speaker distances are the same.
(Factory-shipped settings: CENTER
→
0 ms, SURROUND
→
5 ms)
If the settings need to be changed due to the type of sound
source being played or the conditions in the room, change
them as follows.
1
Press the MENU button repeatedly to make "SP DELAY"
appear.
2
Within 10 seconds, press the ITEM button to select
"CENT-SP" or "SURR-SP".
CENT-SP: To delay the sound from the center speaker
SURR-SP: To delay the sound from the surround
speakers
●
The selected speaker indicator(s) will flash.
3
Within 10 seconds, press the SET UP (
W
or
X
) button
to select a value.
Adjustable range
CENTER: 0 ms - 5 ms
SURROUND: 0 ms - 15 ms
(When the DIGITAL indicator is lit)
15 ms - 30 ms
(When the DIGITAL indicator is not lit)
(Can be changed in 1 ms steps.)
Notes:
●
As a guide for setting the correct delay time, 1 ms is
equal to approximately 12" (30 cm) from where the se-
lected speakers are placed further away from the listener
than the typical location.
●
If the delay time for the surround speakers is set to a
large value, a large sound space will be created. If it is
set to a small value, the sound space will be small and
intimate.
