The AVR 110 has been custom-designed to provide all the excitement and detail of movie soundtracks and every nuance of musical selections. [. . . ] When you release the button, the circulation will resume after 15 seconds. Continue to adjust the individual speakers until they all have the same volume. Note that adjustments should be made with the / / ¤ buttons mq on the remote or the Selector buttons 5 on the front panel only, NOT the main volume controls. Then press the Set button oÔ to memorize the change. If you are using a sound pressure (SPL) meter for precise level adjustment, set the volume so that the meter reads 75dB, C-Weighting Slow. NOTE: The subwoofer output level is not adjustable using the test tone. To change the subwoofer level, follow the steps for Output Level Trim Adjustment on page 26. When you have adjusted the outputs so that all channels have the same level, press the Test button h on the remote to complete the adjustment. Delay Settings Due the different distances between the frontchannel speakers and the listening position compared to the surround speakers and the listening position, the amount of time it takes for sound to reach your ears from the front or surround speakers is different. You may compensate for this difference through the use of the delay settings to adjust the timing to tailor the specific speaker placement and acoustic conditions in your listening room or home theater. The factory setting is appropriate for most rooms, but some installations create an uncommon distance between the front and surround speakers that may cause the arrival of frontchannel sounds to become disconnected from surround-channel sounds. To resynchronize the front and surround channels, follow these steps: 1. Measure the distance from the listening/ viewing position to the front speakers. Measure the distance from the listening/ viewing position to the surround speakers. Subtract the distance to the surround speakers from the distance to the front speakers. When setting the delay time for the Dolby Digital surround modes, the optimal delay time is the result of that subtraction. For example, if the front speakers are ten feet away and the surround speakers are five feet away, the optimal delay time is figured as 10­5=5. Thus, in this example, the delay time for Dolby Digital should be set at five milliseconds. When setting the delay time for the Pro Logic mode, take the result of the subtraction and add 15 to obtain the optimal delay time. For example, if the front speakers are ten feet away and the surround speakers are five feet away, the optimal delay time is figured as 10­5+15=20. Thus, in this example, the Pro Logic delay should be set at twenty milliseconds. NOTE: The Theater and Hall modes use a fixed, nonadjustable delay time.
