Speaker distance

C)SP DISTANCE

Use this feature to manually adjust the distance of each
speaker and the delay applied to the respective channel.
Ideally, each speaker should be the same distance from the
main listening position. However, this is not possible in
most home situations. Thus, a certain amount of delay
must be applied to the sound from each speaker so that all
sounds will arrive at the listening position at the same
time.

If your subwoofer can adjust the output volume and the crossover
frequency, set the volume to about half way (or slightly less) and
set the crossover frequency to the maximum.

• The available speaker channels differ depending on the setting

of the speakers.

• Instead of “SB L” and “SB R”, “SUR.B” is displayed if

“SUR.B L/R SP” is set to either “SMLx1” or “LRGx1” (see

If you use a handheld sound pressure level meter, hold at arm’s
length and point upwards so that the meter is in the listening
position. With the meter set to the 70 dB scale and to C SLOW,
calibrate each speaker to 75 dB.

This function is automatically turned off if you exit from “BASIC
MENU”.
