OPERATION

Positioning possibilities

Moving the subwoofer closer to walls and corners in particular will generally increase the amount of bass. Although the extra amount of bass can be compensated for by reducing the volume level of the subwoofer relative to the rest of the system, this can result in uneven bass response at the listening position. You can try starting with placement in a corner and experiment by gradually moving it out of the corner or further away from the wall. Try to locate the position which yields the best compromise between position, volume and even bass response. Note that every time that you reposition the subwoofer (even if it’s over a short distance) you may need to adjust the level and phase settings again.

Corner placement

This placement yields maximum boost of bass level but potentially uneven distribution of bass in the room (room-modes), particularly if the room is square or shoe-box shaped.

From the listening position, check if the bass is even across the entire bass spectrum. If not, move the subwoofer out of the corner. Try moving it along either wall.

Next to wall, away from corner

This position still provides considerable boost but less than the corner placement as above. Room-modes can also still be considerable but less so than with corner placement.

From the listening position, check if the bass is even across the entire bass spectrum. If not, move the subwoofer away or towards your listening position until the most even response has been obtained.

Avoid placing the subwoofer exactly half-way or at a quarter of the wall’s length.

Free standing, away from wall and corner

This position will give least boost compared to wall or corner placement, but in general offers the best flexibility at achieving most even bass distribution at the listening position.

Avoid placing the subwoofer exactly half-way or at a quarter’s length of either sidewall.

Particularly in smaller square or “shoe-box” shaped rooms the free standing position is recommended.
