SOUND 2 SP DISTANCE
(speaker distance)
Use this feature to adjust the delay applied to center
channel sounds. This feature works when there is sound
output from the center speakers with a source such as
Dolby Digital or DTS. Ideally, the center speaker should
be the same distance from the main listening position as
the left and right main speakers. However, in most home
situations, the center speaker is placed in line with the
main speakers. By delaying the sound from the center
speaker, you can adjust the apparent distance from the
center speaker to the main listening position to make it
seem the same as the distance between the listening
position and main left and right speakers.

2 Press j / i to select the unit “meters” or

you want to adjust the delay.
