surround processor?

Subaudible background noise? Now that sounds like an ASR obsession, which is obsessively pedantic and has virtually nothing to do with sound quality.

The sound from all channels must arrive with perfect timing. If not... Well I'm sure it doesn't take much imagination... (Perhaps this failing is the reason they have been systematically labelled as crap. If timing is out, they do sound like crap.)

Disregard automatically determined speaker distances and correctly set them. Ideally use a laser range finder to get precise measurements.

Naturally it goes without saying levels must be accurately set by fine tuning the automatically calculated assumptions.

Is it just me, or do others physically laugh out loud when when they read a comment by a narrow minded foolish biggot who makes rediculous assumptions regarding knowledge and experience to prove they must be superior? 

No, what’s funny is when someone obviously doesn’t know what they’re talking about and blatantly flaunts it in front of people who do.  Joke’s on you dude. 

If you don't understand the logic in it, then you have my sincere sympathty. 

Don't make stupid assumptions based on ignorance, and don't be afraid to try it. You just might learn sonething and be surprised.

Anyone not famillar with home theatre systems will likely not get timing. 

Home threatre processors have speaker distances. If you read the manual, the distance is so a delays can be incorporated so the sound from every speaker reaches the measuring positon at the exact same time.

After all every surround speaker is not going to be equidistance from the listening position.

There, I hope that taught you something and opened up your mind to new ideas. 

There is no reason to abusive just because you don't have the relevant knowledge.
