Center Delay Time Setting
Register the delay time of the sound from the center speaker, comparing to that of the sound from the front speakers. If the distance from your listening point to the center speaker is equal to that to the front speakers, select 0 ms. As the distance to the center speaker becomes shorter, increase the delay time. � 1 msec increase (or decrease) in delay time corresponds to 30 cm decrease (or increase) in distance. � When shipped from the factory, the delay time is set to 0 ms.

Crossover Frequency Setting
Small speakers cannot reproduce the bass sound very well. So, if you have used a small speaker for any of the front, center, and rear channels, this receiver automatically reallocates the bass elements, originally assigned to the channel for which you have connected the small speaker, to another channel (for which you have connected the large speaker). To use this function properly, you need to set the crossover frequency level according to the size of the small speaker connected. � If you have selected �LARGE� for all speakers (see page 17), this function cannot be adjusted.

Rear Delay Time Setting
Register the delay time of the sound from the rear speakers, comparing to that of the sound from the front speakers. If the distance from your listening point to the rear speakers is equal to that to the front speakers, select 0 ms. As the distance to the rear speakers becomes shorter, increase the delay time. � 1 msec increase (or decrease) in delay time corresponds to 30 cm decrease (or increase) in distance. � When shipped from the factory, the delay time is set to 5 ms.
