listening space. The ASA parameter is not available unless the

loudspeakers is less than 1 foot (0.3m). Select the CLOSE setting if
the distance between the rear loudspeakers is greater than 1 foot
(0.3m), but less than 4 feet (1.2m). Select the APART setting if
the distance between the rear loudspeakers is greater than 4 feet
(1.2m).
