position. But by all means,

 

take advantage of their tiny

 

size and experiment liberally

 

with their placement (see text

 

for suggestions).

Place the subwoofer on the floor against a wall (surfaces that acoustically support the bass). Placing it out from the wall and/or up on a shelf could result in disappointing bass performance (see text).

Have a clear line of sight from your listening position to the cubes.

If the cubes are fairly close to the listener (3-4 ft.), it’s best to have them at ear level. For greater cube/listener distances, try placing them down on the floor, up near the ceiling or anywhere in between.

Use your imagination, and try different locations for the cubes— on window sills, for example, or on a bookshelf as shown.

The ear cannot locate the source of low-bass, so the subwoofer does not have to be very close to the cubes. It can be hidden by furni- ture. The face of the subwoofer must be at least 4 inches from the nearest vertical surface, however.

If you can’t place the woofer on the floor against a wall as shown, the subwoofer’s output will decrease. Advance the Bass Level Control to compensate.

Set the Bass Level control for best bass balance, then forget it. It is not intended to be adjusted regularly to compensate for differences in recordings.
