x SBL DIST. (Surround back left speaker distance)b) Lets you set the distance from your listening position to the surround back left speaker. Surround back left speaker distance should be set from a distance equal to the front speaker distance (A) to a distance 15 feet closer to your listening position (E). x SBR DIST. (Surround back right speaker distance)b) Lets you set the distance from your listening position to the surround back right speaker. Surround back right speaker distance should be set from a distance equal to the front speaker distance (A) to a distance 15 feet closer to your listening position (F). a)When the surround back speakers are set to "SINGLE". b)When the surround back speakers are set to "DUAL". Tip The receiver lets you to input the speaker position in terms of distance. However, it is not possible to set the center speaker further than the front speakers. Also, the center speaker cannot be set more than 5 feet closer from the front speakers. Likewise, the surround speakers can not be set further away from the listening position than the front speakers. And they can be no more than 15 feet closer. This is because incorrect speaker placement is not conducive to the enjoyment of surround sound. Please note that, setting the speaker distance closer than the actual location of the speakers will cause a delay in the output of the sound from that speaker. In other words, the speaker will sound like it is further away. For example, setting the center speaker distance 3-6 feet closer than the actual speaker position will create a fairly realistic sensation of being "inside" the screen. If you cannot obtain a satisfactory surround effect because the surround speakers are too close, setting the surround speaker distance closer (shorter) than the actual distance will create a larger sound stage. Adjusting these parameter while listening to the sound often results in much better surround sound. Give it a try! x SUR POS. (Surround speaker position) Lets you specify the location of your surround speakers for proper implementation of the surround effects in the Cinema Studio EX modes (page 57). This setup item is not available when the surround speakers are set to "NO" (page 43). • SIDE/LO Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections A and C. • SIDE/HI Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections A and D. • BEHD/LO Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections B and C. • BEHD/HI Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections B and D. 52US
