Determining the value for [DISTANCE] and [GAIN] of [DTA SETTINGS]
If you specify the distance from the center of the
currently set listening position to every speaker,
the delay time will be automatically computed
and set.
1 Determines the center of the currently set
listening position as the reference point.
2 Measures the distances from the reference
point to the speakers.
3 Calculates the differences between the
distance of the furthest speaker (rear speaker)
and other speakers.
4 Sets the [DISTANCE] calculated in step 3 for
individual speakers.
5 Adjusts [GAIN] for individual speakers.
Example: When [FRONT ALL] is selected as the
listening position
