Time Alignment Whether you're driving or not, it is virtually impossible to be seated where the distances from all the speakers are equal. This causes gaps of timing when sound from each speaker reaches your ears. Time Alignment function provides the optimum solution. Simply enter each speaker's distance from the listening position, and the unit automatically compensates for the gaps by adjusting speaker delays. The result: sound from all the speakers reaches you at the same time, delivering the optimum listening experience.
