place stress on the subwoofer and its amplifier. If you can localize
bass from the subwoofer, the subwoofer level may be too high. Music
can be useful for fine-tuning the subwoofer level as excessive bass is
readily apparent. The proper setting will generally work well for music
and movie soundtracks.
Remember the setting of the master volume control used during this calibration.
To play a Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack at the reference volume level,
simply return to that volume setting. Note that most home theater listeners
find this setting to be excessively loud. Let your own ears be the judge for
deciding how loud to playback movie soundtracks and adjust the master
volume control accordingly. Regardless of your listening levels, using an SPL
meter to calibrate equal levels for all speakers in the system is recommended.

The SPEAKER DISTANCE SETUP menu, which is reached from the MAIN
menu, allows you to set the delay for individual speakers. This ensures that
the sound from each speaker arrives simultaneously at the listening position,
even when the speakers are not all placed at equal distances from the
listener. Increase the delay to speakers located closer to the seating area
and decrease the delay to speakers located farther from the seating area.
The Audio Configuration will determine which speakers are displayed in
the Speaker Distance Setup menu.
This Rotel processor makes setting the delay time for each speaker very
easy. Simply measure the distance (in feet or meters) from your seating
position to each speaker in your system. Set the measured distance in the
line for each speaker. The menu provides a line for each speaker configured
in your system and gives a range of settings up to 33 feet (10.6 meters)
in 0.25 foot (0.075 m) increments with each increment equivalent to an
additional delay of 0.25 ms.
To change a setting, place the highlight on the desired line using the Up/
Down arrow buttons and use the Left/Right arrow buttons to increase or
decrease the delay. To return to the MAIN menu, press the BACK button or
select "BACK" on the OSD. Press the SETUP/MENU button or select "EXIT"
on the OSD to exit setup and return to normal operation.
