Adjusting the delay time (STR-DE1015G)
Click SETUP in the main menu, then click DELAY.
Click the buttons next to each setting to adjust the
delay time as you desire.
CENTER
Use this adjustment to add a sense of depth to the center
channel. Longer delay times create a greater sense of depth.
The CENTER delay can be set from 0 to 5 ms (in 1 ms steps).
REAR
Use this adjustment to add a sense of depth to the rear
channel. Longer delay times create a greater sense of depth.
The REAR delay can be set from 0 to 20 ms (in 5 ms steps).
Adjusting the delay time
(STR-DE815G and STR-D760Z)
The delay time is the time lag between the surround
sound output from front and rear speakers. You can
make the surround sound more effective by delaying
the output from the rear speakers. You can select
between three different delay times: 15ms, 20ms, and
30ms. For example, if you have placed the rear
speakers in a large room or apart from your listening
position, you might want to shorten the delay time.
Delay time adjustment is only available for the PRO
LOGIC genre.
