For example, in the above diagram, measure the distance (in feet) from the primary listening
position to the Front Left or Front Right Speaker. Your Front Right and Left speakers should
measure the same distance. If they do not, please adjust them if possible. Enter the distance of
the Front Speakers (n in the above picture) using the left/right ARROW buttons.
Next, measure the distance (in feet) from center speakers (o) to the listening position. Move the
cursor to highlight the Center speaker in the Channel Delay setup page, and enter the distance
(as close as possible) in feet using the left/right ARROW buttons. Repeat for each speaker in
the system (Center, Left Surround, Right Surround, Left Surround Back, Right Surround Back
and Subwoofer) as available. The DVD player will insert appropriate delay to the center,
subwoofer and surround channels to make sure sound wave from different speakers arrive at
the listener at the same time.
Distance between the surround speakers and the listener must be shorter than or equal to that
between the front speakers and the listener.
In case the channel delay settings cannot match your speaker configuration, please set all
distances to the same and use your receiver/amplifier to set the channel delay.
