Speaker Placement Tip - There is no substitute for well placed speakers, especially in pairs
and especially in the main front (L,C,R) positions. If you can place the main speakers equidis-
tant (at similar distances) from the primary listening position, you will enjoy the most balanced
sound levels from most points in the room. The farther away or closer the left speaker is from
the listener (when compared to the right speaker), the more delay one will have over the other.
Sitting nearest the speaker with a high degree of delay does not sound natural. Read more
about speaker placement tips in the "Speaker Placement Tips" section.
SPEAKERS Menu - POSITION
This menu allows you to enter the distance from your listening
position to the various speakers. The DMC-1 will then auto-
matically adjust and correct the speaker delay times. The sound
from each speaker should arrive at the listener seated
in the primary listening position at the correct time. Please
note that the best sound stage and imaging will result
from careful attention to this parameter, especially for
SPEAKER POSITION
the FRONT speakers.
The procedure is as follows:
1) Measure (in feet and inches) how far each
speaker is away from the center listening po-
sition of your home theater.
2) In the OSD menu, use the remote control
joystick arrow buttons to enter the distance
in feet for each speaker.
3) The DMC-1 automatically sets the appro-
priate delays for each speaker so the sounds
arrive at the primary listening position at the
correct time.
4) Use this table to record your speaker dis-
tance measurements
