How to calculate the
proper delay time
Assuming that the distance from
the front speakers is A meters and
that from the surround speakers
is B meters:
What is delay time?
The sound entering the ears include the direct sound coming from the sound source and the indirect sounds reflected from the walls, floor,
ceiling, etc. The indirect sounds are delayed because they travel longer distance required for reflection before they reach the ears. The delay
time is the difference in time between the direct sound and indirect sounds.

1 Use the delay time calcula-
tion chart on the right.
Example:
When A = 3 m,B = 3 m,
the delay time is 20 ms.

formula for calculation.
Delay time =
