In the sound output control device, the sound output units arranged at left and right front parts and left and right rear parts output sound. The delay unit gives a delay to the sounds outputted by the sound output units arranged at the left and right rear parts. The control unit determines a delay amount based on acoustic characteristic of the sounds outputted by the sound output units and collected at each of left and right front listening positions and left and right rear listening positions, and sets the determined delay amount to the delay unit.
