suoRmado lawidwv ■ SL DIST. (Surround left speaker distance) Lets you set the distance from your listening position to the surround left speaker. Surround left speaker distance should be set from a distance equal to the front speaker distance (0 on page 34) to a distance 15 feet closer to your listening position (0 on page 34). ■ SR DIST. (Surround right speaker distance) Lets you set the distance from your listening position to the surround right speaker. Surround right speaker distance should be set from a distance equal to the front speaker distance (0 on page 34) to a distance 15 feet closer to your listening position (0 on page 34). ■ 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 40). 100 120' 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! 0 • SIDE/LO Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections 0 and 0. • SIDE/HI Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections 0 and G. • BEHD/LO Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections 0 and 0. • BEHD/HI Select if the location of your surround speakers corresponds to sections 0 and 0. continued 35US

SL
DIST.
(Surround
left
speaker
distance)
Lets
you
set
the
distance
from
your
listening
position
to
the
surround
left
speaker.
Surround
left
speaker
distance
should
be
set
from
a
distance
equal
to
the
front
speaker
distance
(0
on
page
34)
to
a
distance
15
feet
closer
to
your
listening
position
(0
on
page
34).
■
SR
DIST.
(Surround
right
speaker
distance)
Lets
you
set
the
distance
from
your
listening
position
to
the
surround
right
speaker.
Surround
right
speaker
distance
should
be
set
from
a
distance
equal
to
the
front
speaker
distance
(0
on
page
34)
to
a
distance
15
feet
closer
to
your
listening
position
(0
on
page
34).
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!
