Speaker Distance (Speaker distance)
Use this feature to manually adjust the distance of each speaker and the
delay applied to the respective channel. Ideally, each speaker should be
the same distance from the main listening position. However, this is not
possible in most home situations. Thus, a certain amount of delay must
be applied to the sound from each speaker so that all sounds will arrive
at the listening position at the same time.
Speaker distances
Control range: 0.30 to 24.00 m (1.0 to 80.0 ft)
Initial setting: 3.00 m (10.0 ft)
Control step: 0.05 m (0.2 ft)
y
If your subwoofer can adjust the output volume and the crossover frequency, set the
volume to about half way (or slightly less) and set the crossover frequency to the
maximum.
• The available speaker channels differ depending on the setting of the speakers.
• If you are only using one surround back speaker, connect it to the SUR.BACK
SINGLE jack, and adjust the distance in “Surround Back L”.
