Adjusting the delay time:
When enjoying 5.1ch surround playback, it is ideal
to choose a listening position that is the same
distance from each speaker. By adjusting the
delay time of the center/surround speakers, you
can virtually create an ideal listening environment
(as if the center/surround speakers were at their
ideal locations respectively as below.)

playing a DVD video disc, it substitutes the
current sound for the test signal.
Move the cursor control ( / ) to switch the
receiving speakers, and adjust the volume of
each speaker at the same level by moving the
cursor control ( / ).
If all the volume levels cannot be equalized,
adjust them on the amplifier.
