You can adjust from 0FEET (0M 0CM) to 23FEET (7M 0CM). Tip When the Auto Calibration result is saved, you can adjust the speakers distance in 1 inch (1 cm) steps. If the Auto Calibration result is not saved, you can adjust the speakers distance in 1/4 feet (10 cm) steps. 3 Repeat step 1 and 2 to adjust the other speaker distance.

In this format, the surround speakers output stereo sound with an expanded frequency range, and a subwoofer channel for deep bass is independently provided. This format is also called "5.1" with the subwoofer channel designed as the 0.1 channel (since it functions only when a deep bass effect is needed). All six channels in this format are recorded separately for superior channel separation. Furthermore, since all the signals are processed digitally, less signal degradation occurs.
