General tips
Check it out
Try different subwoofer positions and
settings, before you finally choose a
setup.
Note down settings
When looking for the best subwoofer
position in the room, note down the
ideal setting you found for a position.
When moving the subwoofer between
two positions you will be able to set the
subwoofer to the same configuration as
found before.
Vary the listening music
When experimenting to find the
optimal settings, use a couple of music
tracks with repetitive bass across a
large spectrum. The tracks should be
sufficiently different from each other and
each should cover a wide bass-range.
Musical instruments, such as a double-
bass, bass guitar, church organ, etc.
covering a wide spectrum in the bass
region and above, are very suitable as
these depend on accurately balanced
subwoofers and main speakers.
Verify changes
Although in general it is best to make
adjustments in the sequence outlined
below, note that changing one setting
may influence another. For example,
finding the right setting for phase may
result in having to decrease gain, even if
this was set correctly before.
It is recommended that you double-
check the previous settings before
moving on to the next one. Obtaining
the best integration of the subwoofers
generally involves a considerable amount
of repeated fine-tuning.
