The Speaker Company Home Theater Speaker Connecting Your Speaker System, Subwoofer Placement

If you’re a movie fan, mount the surround speakers on the side walls flanking your primary listening/viewing position. Make sure they’re slightly behind your couch or chair and at least 1.5 to 2’ above ear level.

Try not to place furniture between your speakers and your listening/viewing position. Make sure you can see all your speakers when seated there.

Subwoofer Placement

Subwoofers are not as easy to place properly as some people might have you believe. Although bass frequencies are omnidirectional (they spread evenly into a room), you cannot place your subwoofer virtually anywhere and enjoy quality bass reproduction.

Here are some practical hints.

For more bass, put the subwoofer in or close to a room corner. If you do, however, know that the resulting bass response will most likely be very uneven. Some frequencies will be emphasized.

Others will be suppressed. And that pattern of exaggeration and repression will change as you move about the room!

For a bit less bass but more even frequency response, move the subwoofer away from the corner along one wall.

If that still doesn’t please you, then move the subwoofer further out into the room. You’ll have less overall “boom” but probably higher overall sound quality.

Once you’ve decided on general placement, there’s another technique that will help you fine­tune your subwoofer’s ideal location.

1.Identify your favorite listening/viewing position.

2.Put the Subwoofer there. (Yes, we mean put it on or in your favorite chair or sofa. Don’t worry, the furniture will handle the weight.)

3.Play some music or a soundtrack with a lot of bass content.

4.Crawl around the room on all fours until you find the place where the bass sounds the best to you.

5.Put the Subwoofer there.

Connecting Your Speaker System

Now that you have your speakers placed properly, it’s time to connect them.

Before you begin connecting your speakers, turn your system components OFF. That way, you won’t run any chance of “shorting” your amplifier and possibly damaging it as you’re hooking up your speakers. And, of course, turn your system back ON when you’re done!

Method 1 (Line Level Connection)

If your surround sound receiver has a line­level LFE (Low Frequency Effects) output – sometimes called a “subwoofer” output – connect it to the subwoofer’s rear panel Subwoofer Input via a shielded RCA­to­RCA cable. See your receiver’s instruction manual for more details.
