PLACEMENT

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical since low bass sounds are not highly directional. For a sonorous sound field, although you can obtain a good effect with one subwoofer, the use of two subwoofers is recommended.

If using one subwoofer, we recommend that you place it on the outside of either the right or the left front speaker. (See

fig. A .) If using two subwoofers, we recommend that you place them on the outside of each front speaker. (See fig. B

.) The placement shown in fig. C is also possible, however, if the subwoofer system is placed directly facing the wall, the bass effect may die because the sound from it and the sound reflected by the wall may cancel out each other. To prevent

this from happening, face the subwoofer system at an angle as in fig. A or

B .

Note

There may be a case that you cannot obtain enough super-bass sounds from the subwoofer when listening in the center of the room. This is because “standing waves” have been developed between two parallel walls and they cancel the bass sounds.

In such a case, face the subwoofer obliquely to the wall. It also may be necessary to break up the parallel surfaces by placing bookshelves etc. along the walls.

Use the non-skid pads

Put the provided non-skid pads at the four corners on the bottom of the subwoofer to prevent the subwoofer from moving by vibrations etc.
