Recommended Subwoofer Placement Options for Three Fathoms

Recommended Subwoofer Placement Options for Four Fathoms

Using Three or Four Fathoms

Research indicates that the smoothest bass response for a large listening area can be achieved using four subwoofers, placing one at the midpoint of each of the four walls (although using two or three subwoofers can be almost as good).

Experimentation with subwoofer and listener placement is recommended to achieve the best results – the benefits can be substantial.

High-resolution measurements and professional system calibration are recommended for the best possible results & system performance.
