Speaker type and positioning
This diagram shows the desired positioning for 7.1 channel speaker
systems used in A. S. A. (Advanced Speaker Array) mode. During
system set-up, select the distance between Surround Back speakers.
Note:
• If you set SURR.BACK = 1CH or No in SPEAKER SIZE setup
menu, Advanced Speaker Array will not be activated.
SPEAKER DISTANCE (TIME ALIGNMENT)
Use this parameter to specify the distance of each speaker’s position
from the listening position. The delay time is automatically calculated
according to these distances.
Begin by determining the ideal or most commonly used seating
position in the room.
This is important for the timing of the acoustics to create the proper
sound space that the SR-12S1 and today’s sound systems are able to
produce.
Note that the speakers that you selected “No” or “None” for in the
Speaker Config sub-menu will not appear here.
(There are several useful books and special DVD and LD’s available
to guide you through proper home theater configuration. If you are
unsure, have your Marantz dealer perform the installation for you.
They are trained professionals familiar with even the most
sophisticated custom installations. Marantz recommends the
WWW.CEDIA.ORG website for further information about this).
