Speaker delay settings... help?

[IceBus]

This may be because I'm tired from setting this up all day, but I'm really struggling to get the correct delay settings for the centre and the front L&R speakers of my new Denon 500SD

Any tips on the best way to do it? I've measured the position from the speakers to my seated position and tried inputting those values but it doesn't work. I just don't seem able to get it to lip-synch.

I'm going from the Denon 500SD straight into my TV via RGB scart (at least until the new HDTV shows up...).

Thanks,

Pete

I thought that was what speaker delay was for? i.e. for every speaker (centre, fr, fl, rl, rr, sub etc) I can adjust it for how far away I'm sitting.

It does this with all media through the amp, not just DVDs - i.e. TV as well.

Any ideas?

I seem to have sorted it, by setting the speaker distance slightly too far away and lowering the actual speakers slightly (I'd forgotten to lower them to ear height post-installation) and it seems to be fairly close now. I'll probably have to do it again when the new LCD turns up so it's not worth getting it perfect in the meanwhile.

Thanks for the help guys.
