should be set from a distance equal to the front speaker
distance (A) to a distance 15 feet closer to your

to the surround back speaker. Surround back 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 (D).
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
than the front speakers.
Likewise, the surround speakers cannot 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!
