on my yamaha dvd-750 only the delay settings for the c, and lr,rr channels are adjustable not the mains. I ve read that one ms is equal to 1.1 ft spk distance from listening postion. MY QUESTION:my set up is as follows:
mains 8ft from list.pos.(LP)
center 9ft
rears 3 ft
I am told ideally all spks should be the same dist from the LP but rite now that is not possible. so if i cant adjust the delay of mains( I assume then there is 0 delay then) should my delay for the center be 8ms( 9ft x 1.1ft/ms =8.8ms) and rears be set to an appoximate 3 ms or should the delay for the center be 1ms because it is one foot futher away? If this is the case then my rears would have to be set to a negative because they are closer which cannot be done.

Most most likly dont have all speakers at equal distences. Thats where the delay comes in. Set it up at the true measurements.
