SBL DIST. Surround back left

Page 49 highlights

With only one surround back speaker With two surround back speakers (The angle B should be the same) x CNT DIST. (Center speaker distance) Lets you set the distance from your listening position to the center speaker. x SL DIST. (Surround left speaker distance) x SR DIST. (Surround right speaker distance) Lets you set the distance from your listening position to the surround speakers. x SB DIST. (Surround back speaker distance) x SBL DIST. (Surround back left speaker distance) x SBR DIST. (Surround back right speaker distance) Lets you set the distance from your listening position to the surround back speakers. x SW DIST. (Subwoofer distance) Lets you set the distance from your listening position to the subwoofer. Note Depends on the speaker pattern setting, some parameters may not be available. Tip The distance between the center speaker and the listening position B cannot be more than 5 feet closer than the one between the listening position and the front speaker A. Place the speakers so that the difference in the length of B in the following diagram is no more than 5 feet closer than the length of A. Example: Adjust the distance B to 15 feet or more when the distance A is 20 feet. Also, the distance between the surround speakers/ surround back speakers and the listening position C cannot be more than 15 feet closer than the distance between the listening position and the front speakers A. Place the speakers so that the difference in the length of C in the following diagram is no more than 15 feet closer than the length of A. Example: Adjust the distance C to 5 feet or more when the distance A is 20 feet. This is important because incorrect speaker placement is not conductive to the enjoyment of surround sound. Please note that placing the speakers closer than the required will cause a delay in the output of the sound from that speaker. In other words, the speaker will sound like it is farther away. Adjusting these parameter while listening to the sound often results in much better surround sound. Give it a try! continued 49US Amplifier Operations

Tip
The distance between the center speaker and the
listening position
B
cannot be more than 5 feet
closer than the one between the listening position
and the front speaker
A
. Place the speakers so that
the difference in the length of
B
in the following
diagram is no more than 5 feet closer than the length
of
A
.
Example: Adjust the distance
B
to 15 feet or more
when the distance
A
is 20 feet.
Also, the distance between the surround speakers/
surround back speakers and the listening position
C
cannot be more than 15 feet closer than the
distance between the listening position and the front
speakers
A
. Place the speakers so that the
difference in the length of
C
in the following
diagram is no more than 15 feet closer than the
length of
A
.
Example: Adjust the distance
C
to 5 feet or more
when the distance
A
is 20 feet.
This is important because incorrect speaker
placement is not conductive to the enjoyment of
surround sound. Please note that placing the
speakers closer than the required will cause a delay
in the output of the sound from that speaker. In other
