following setting can help you make detailed
adjustments that you may not achieve using the

on page 45.

1

setup menu.

The volume increases to the

0dB

reference level.

room to adjust the other speaker levels.

channel.

• For comparison purposes, the reference speaker will

Fine Channel Distance

• Default setting:

2.0 m

(all channels)

For proper sound depth and separation with your system,
it is necessary to add a slight bit of delay to some
speakers so that all sounds will arrive at the listening
position at the same time. The following setting can help
you make detailed adjustments that you may not achieve
using the

Manual speaker setup

below.

1

Select ‘Fine Ch Distance’ from the Manual

MCACC setup menu.

2

Adjust the distance of the left channel from the

listening position.

3

Select each channel in turn and adjust the

distance as necessary.

Use

/

(cursor left/right) to adjust the delay of the

speaker you selected to match the reference speaker.
The delay is measured in terms of speaker distance from

0.1

to

9.0

meters.

Listen to the reference speaker and use it to measure the
target channel. From the listening position, face the two
speakers with your arms outstretched pointing at each
speaker. Try to make the two tones sound as if they are
arriving simultaneously at a position slightly in front of
you and between your arm span.
