When you installed your Cinema BD100 system, you may have had to place some speakers a little farther away from the listening position than others. Sounds that are supposed to arrive simultaneously from different speakers may blur, due to different arrival times. The BD100 receiver provides an adjustment that compensates for these real-world speaker placement differences, so your Cinema BD100 system can deliver a superior surround-sound experience.
