Rear speaker delay setting
Posted by: rackkit on 21 June 2018
Both my AV2 and Denon DVD player have to be set up manually for delay & levels for all speakers - no fancy auto calibration here! The front, centre and sub are straightforward enough being between 2.7m and 3.3m away from the listening position but the rears are less straightforward (to me) as they're on the rear wall directly behind (so level with my ears) but 1.5m away in each direction.
Now do I set them at 1.5m or 0.0m for the delay from the fronts, centre and sub? In other words, is the sound 1.5m away or is it zero as they're in the same plane as the listening position?
Glad to hear any opinions/knowledge on this!
Cheers,
Rack.
