ENGLISH <SPEAKER DISTANCE>
Use this menu 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 SR9600
and today’s sound systems are able to produce.

“NONE”, the speaker configuration 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
