Channel Delay
Adding a slight delay to some speakers is necessary to achieve a surround sound effect. You need to figure out
the distance from your listening position to your speakers to add the proper delay. The following steps show you
how to set the delay time for each channel by specifying the distances from your listening position to each
speaker. Once you specify the speaker distances, the receiver calculates the correct delay times automatically.
If continuing from “Speaker Setting” go to step 1. If starting fresh, complete steps 1 – 3 in “Setting Up for
Surround Sound“ (p. 30 – 31) first.
