Adjusting the Time Correction
Time Correction:
The distance between the listener and the
speakers in a car vary widely due to the special
conditions of the mobile environment. This
difference in the distances from the speakers to
the listener creates a shift in the sounds image
and frequency characteristics. This is caused
by the time delay between the sound reaching
the listener's right versus the left ear.
To correct this, the ERA-G311 is able to delay
the audio signal to the speakers closest to the
listener. This effectively creates a perception of
increased distance for those speakers. The
listener can be placed at an equal distance
between the left and right speakers for optimum
staging.
The adjustment will be made for each speaker
in a step of 0.1mS.
Example 1. Listening Position: Front Left
Seat
Adjust the time correction level of the front left
speaker to a high value and the rear right to
zero or a low value. (See the Illustration.)
Example 2. Listening Position: All Seats
Adjust the time correction level of each speaker
to almost the same level. (See the Illustration.)
