Note that KRK subwoofers are optimized for use with KRK full range monitors.
Begin by determining the best location for your subwoofer. The optimum setup
is displayed in Figure 3.2. However, this setup may not be practical or possible
in your room. Once you have set up your monitors, listen to program material
that you know contains low frequency information. If your subwoofer has a
phase switch, adjust the subwoofer to provide the highest frequency setting
possible. Flip the switch back and forth to find the loudest setting. Then adjust
the sub’s low pass filter so that it works in conjunction with the satellite’s high
pass frequencies. When you have finished, readjust the level of the sub.

Begin by placing the Left and Right front channels 30 degrees from the Center
channel and equidistant to the listening position. The Left Surround (rear) and
Right Surround (rear) channels should be placed 110 degrees from the Center
channel. Their location should also be equidistant from the listening position. The
subwoofer (Low Frequency Effects) channel is most effective when situated
directly below the Center channel. If this is not possible, place the subwoofer just
to the right or left side and below the Center channel. Ensure that the woofers
are above the height of the console. (Figure 3.3)
