POSITIONING
4.1.
Subwoofer Positioning
Ideally, there should be no objects or obstacles between the subwoofer
and the listening position. We recommend to keep a distance of at least
0.5 m (19 inches) to the walls, in order to avoid low frequency boosting.
4.2.
Height and Distance
Your EVE Audio subwoofer should be placed on the floor. The surface
where it stands ought to be as firm and stable as possible, in order to
prevent surface vibrations from generating unwanted resonances.
The distance from subwoofer to listening spot depends on the position
of the satellites. Ideally, the subwoofer and satellites should be at the
same distance from the listener. In a 2.1 system the subwoofer ought to
be placed between both satellites (see Stereo Setup + Subwoofer). In a 5.1
system the subwoofer ought to be placed between the two front satellites
(see Multichannel Setup).

These values are only meant as a reference and depend a lot on the
characteristics of the room. In live rooms you will be forced to reduce the
distance, while in dead rooms the distance to the loudspeakers can be
larger.
