Setting The Delay Time - JVC TH-A5R Instructions Manual

Setting the Delay Time

Adjust the delay time of the sounds from the center speaker and the
rear speakers, comparing to that of the sounds from the front
speakers. If the distance to the center speaker* and/or the rear
speakers** from your listening point is almost the same as from the
front speakers, select "00 MS (msec)."
* You can adjust the delay time only when the DOLBY DIGITAL
or DTS indicator is lit on the display.
** You can adjust the delay time only when the DOLBY DIGITAL,
DTS, or PRO LOGIC indicator is lit on the display.
