SW10JM PLACEMENT

SW10JM PLACEMENT

Before you begin, carefully plan the location of the SW10JM, keeping in mind that the SW10JM will be installed parallel with the rooms’ joist construction. For maximum bass performance, we recommend positioning the SW10JM so that the grille/vent is near a corner or sidewall and is as close to the main speakers as possible. Keep in mind that the SW10JM is not magnetically- shielded and could cause interference if placed near a video display.

Installing the SW10JM near a corner can maximize low frequency information; however, be careful to avoid a “boomy” effect that can result from installing the sub in a corner. Also take into consideration any unusual features of the room, such as archways, that can affect bass response.

Every room is different and we recommend experimenting with the SW10JM subwoofer before you install this product. Experiment with a stand-alone subwoofer, placing it in different areas of the room to test the bass in different areas.

Keep in mind that low-frequency information (bass) can vibrate objects. Care should be taken in planning the installation of the in-ﬂoor/ceiling subwoofer to minimize the risk of room vibration and noise. Do not locate the SW10JM subwoofer close to lamps or furniture that might rattle or vibrate.
