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 Speaker and Surround Speakers.

Speaker delay time setting is a professional sound volume adjustment method for audio
enthusiast. For home use, refer to "Setting up the Ideal Speaker Positions" below to install
speakers in appropriate locations.
Ideal Speaker Placement
Front Speakers
Set the front speakers so that their tweeters (high-range) are
aligned at about ear level and at a horizontal angle of 45° to the
prime listening position.
Center Speaker
Ideally the center speaker should be positioned with its top
surface flush with the front speakers. However, you may place
the speaker either on top or near the bottom of your TV set.
Rear Speakers
Set the rear speakers further back, parallel to the walls,
at 60 to 90 centimeters (2 to 3 feet) above prime listening
position ear level.
If the space behind the listening position is insufficient
(i.e., too close to the wall), place the rear speakers facing
each other on either side.
Subwoofer Speaker
Place the subwoofer at any convenient location within
the vicinity of the listening position.
Ideal CENTER SPEAKER placement
Ideal SURROUND
SPEAKER placement
It is desirable to place all speakers within this circle.
Df: The distance from FRONT SPEAKER
Dc: The distance from CENTER SPEAKER
Ds: The distance from SURROUND SPEAKER
