The delay setting can be estimated by using the following method:

Estimate the distance between the primary listening location and the

nearest surround loudspeaker, in feet. If the metric system is used,

convert the distance from meters to feet by multiplying by three (3).

Estimate the distance from the primary listening location to the front

center loudspeaker, in feet. If the metric system is used, multiply the

distance by three (3) to convert distance from meters to feet.

Subtract the distance measured in step 1 above from the distance measured

in step 2, then add 20 and round the answer to the nearest 10. The result

is the delay time, in milliseconds.

For example:

The listening location is 10 feet (3.3 meters) from the surround speakers.

The selected seat is 20 feet (6.6 meters) from the front center speaker.

The delay is set for (20-10) + 20 = 30 milliseconds, switch setting 1.

The delay time for each switch setting is:

As the SDU4 will frequently be used in small rooms, it is likely that the delay

will always be set to the minimum position (0).
