So to compensate for the 2 metres distance, it is 2/343 which equates to 0.00582ms
Looking at the Configurator, you can change the delay of the stereo pair by 70 microsecond increments, so you can select 485 or 605 microseconds, save it and see if you can detect a difference
My sub (B&W db1) is 1/2m in front of my stereo pair and I could detect no difference
I think low frequencies are less evident than those above say 250Hz
80Hz sounds right to me.  Mine is set the same
To avoid confusion: I think you meant to say 5.83 ms, that's to say 0.00583 s.

Yes, quite right, thanks.  Sometimes getting the position of the decimal is tricky...!

You don't expect a salesman to know things like this?   The tech guys there, if they are any, should be able to point you in the right direction

Getting back to Devialet themselves, sometimes I have had a worthwhile answer in a day or two, other times not.   If you actually want to buy something, then it is a whole different ball game
