2-2 SPEAKERS DISTANCE Use this parameter to specify the distance of each speaker's position from the listening position. The delay time is automatically calculated according to these distances. Begin by determining the ideal or most commonly used seating position in the room. This is important for the timing of the acoustics to create the proper sound space that the SR7400 and today's sound systems are able to produce. Note : For speakers that you have selected "None" the Speaker Configuration sub-menu will not appear here. (There are several useful books and special DVD and LD's available to guide you through proper home theater configuration. If you are unsure, have your Marantz dealer perform the installation for you. They are trained professionals familiar with even the most sophisticated custom installations. Marantz recommends the WWW.CEDIA.ORG website for further information about this). 2 - 2 SPEAKERS D I STANCE F RONT L : 1 0 f t 3.0 m F RONT R : 1 0 f t 3.0 m C EN T ER : 10 f t 3.0 m SURR .
