Marantz SR9200 User Guide - Page 33

ENGLISH SPEAKER DISTANCE (TIME ALIGNMENT) 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 SR9200 and today's sound systems are able to produce. Note that the speakers that you selected "No" or "None" for in the Speaker Config sub-menu will not appear here. (There are several usefull 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 RON T L : 1 0 F RON T R : 1 0 C ENT ER : 10 S URR . L : 10 S URR .

If you select "MANUAL", adjust the output level of each speaker as follow. 1. When you move cursor to FRONT L by pressing Down cursor button, the SR9200 will emit a pink noise from the front left speaker. At this time, the master volume automatically increases to the reference level (0dB). Remember the level of this noise and then press the Down cursor button. (Note that this can be adjusted to any level between -10 and +10 dB in 1db intervals.) The SR9200 will now emit the pink noise from the center speaker. 2. Using the Left and Right cursor buttons, adjust the volume level of the noise from the center speaker so that it is the same level as the front left speaker. 3. Press the Down cursor button again.
