PLACING THE SUBWOOFER
11
For example, placing the subwoofer next to a wall generally will increase the
amount of bass in the room; placing it in a corner generally will maximize
amount of bass in the room. However, corner placement can also increase the
destructive effect of standing waves on bass performance. This effect can vary
depending on the listening position
–
some listening positions may yield very
good results, while others may have far too much (or too little) bass at certain
frequencies.
In many rooms, placing the subwoofer along the same plane as the soundbar can
produce the best integration between the sound of the subwoofer and that of the
left and right speakers. In some rooms, the best performance could even result
from placing the subwoofer behind the listening position .
We strongly recommend that you experiment with placement before choosing a
final location for your subwoofer. One way you can determine the best location
for the subwoofer is by temporarily placing it in the listening position and playing
music with strong bass content. Move around to various locations in the room
while the system is playing (putting your ears where the subwoofer would be
placed), and listen until you find the location where the bass performance is best.
Place the subwoofer in that location.
IMPORTANT: The maximum wireless operation distance between the soundbar
and subwoofer is approximately 50 feet (15.3m).
