Setting up the Speaker Delay Time

When 5.1CH Surround Sound is played, you can enjoy the best sound if the distance between you and each
speaker is the same.
Since the sounds arrive at the listening position at different
times depending on the placement of speakers, you can adjust
this difference by adding a delay effect to the sound of the
Center and Rear Speakers.
