Delay time (b)
[DVD-V] (Dolby Digital, center and surround speakers only)
For optimum listening with 5.1-channel sound, all the speakers, except
for the subwoofer, should be the same distance from the seating posi-
tion. If you have to place the center or surround speakers closer to the
seating position, adjust the delay time to make up for the difference.
If distance d (from the center speaker) and f (from the surround
speakers) are the same as or greater than e (from the front speak-
ers), leave the delay time as 0, the factory preset.
If either distance d or f is less than e, find the difference in the
relevant table and change to the recommended setting.
Changing the delay time

PCM Down Conversion
Select how to output the high-quality audio signals (sampling fre-
quencies of 96 kHz and 88.2 kHz) on discs that do not have copy-
right protection. Choose the settings to suit the equipment you have
connected.
The equipment cannot output signals of 88.2 kHz or more if the set-
ting is No and the equipment is unable to handle these signals.

Some equipment cannot handle sampling frequencies of 88.2 kHz,
even if they can handle 96 kHz. Read your equipments operating
instructions for details.
Signals are down-sampled to either 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz despite the
above settings if they have a sampling frequency of 176.4 kHz or
more or are copyright protected.
