Adjusting the surround B speaker delay (Surr
B DELAY)
The listening area can be expanded by setting the
surround B speaker to the array mode. This results in a
sound field with good front/rear and left/right sound
connectivity. Depending on the position of the speakers
and the listening position, however, in some cases
adding a delay to the speakers set to the array mode can
result in a more natural surround effect. In such cases, it
is possible to set the surround B channel to the array
mode using the “Surr B DELAY” audio adjustment
function, add delay processing to the surround B
channel and fine-adjust. The delay can be set between 0
and 20 ms with a high precision of 1 ms. Adjust the delay
value while playing movies or music and set it to the
desired position to achieve a more natural surround
sound.
