6 - SPEAKER SETUP

43

Level is a fancy term for volume. You can change the
level of your Center Speaker, Rear Speakers, and
Subwoofer relative to your Front Speakers in 1db
(decibel) increments from 0 to -6.

• Subwoofer - Select from 0 to -6dB; see page 45.

• Center Speaker - Select from 0 to -6dB; see page 46.

• Right/Left Rear Speakers - Select from 0 to -6dB; see

page 47.

Ideally all of your speakers will be the same distance
from your primary listening area. If not, you can set
Channel Delays for your center and surround speakers
so all audio signals arrive at the same time. Assume 1
mS (millisecond) of delay for every 1 foot of distance
relative to your front speakers.

• Center Speaker - Select 0-5mS; see page 46.

• Rear Speakers - Select 0-15mS; see page 47.

NOTE: See sidebar to calculate delays.

The Speaker Test feature allows you to check your
levels using a white noise signal as a neutral reference;
see page 48.

1. Measure the distance from

your primary listening area to
your Front Speakers; e.g. 10
feet. Use this as your refer-
ence distance.

2. Now measure the distance

from the primary listening
area to your Center Speaker;
e.g. 7 feet.

3. Calculate the difference

between these two distances;
e.g. 10 feet minus 7 feet = 3
feet.

4. Assume 1 ms of delay for

each 1 foot of difference, e.g.
set the Center Delay to 3 ms.

5. Repeat steps 2–4 for the

Surround Speakers; e.g. 10
feet minus 4 feet = 6 feet, or 6
ms delay.

NOTE: If the Center or Surround

distance is equal to or greater
than the reference distance,
set the delay to 0 ms.
