Adjusting the delay time:
When enjoying 5.1ch surround playback, it is ideal to choose a listening
position that is the same distance from each speaker. By adjusting the
delay time of center/surround speakers, you can virtually create an ideal
listening environment (as if the center/surround speakers were at their
ideal locations respectively as below).
Center Channel Delay

2 msc: When (A) is approx. 68 cm (27 inch)
3 msc: When (A) is approx. 102 cm (40 inch) . . .
*(A)=Df – Dc
Get your optimum value (0, 1, 2 . . . 5) dividing (A) by 34.
Surround Channels Delay
