OPERATION
Positioning the subwoofer
Although it is often said that the location of a subwoofer in a listening room is not critical
(as the human ear can not locate direction at very low frequencies), we recommend that
you choose its position carefully. Thus the subwoofer can integrate seamlessly with the
other speakers in the system and interact correctly with the room acoustics.
All of the following should be taken as rough guidelines; bass response in general is very
dependent on the acoustics of the listening environment. Finding the best position often
involves a lot of trial-and-error experimentation. Always trust your ears, even if the
position of the subwoofer seemingly goes against the guidelines. Contradictory as it may
seem, good integration of subwoofers has been achieved when one isn’t aware that a
subwoofer is present at all in the system, yet performance involves fast, deep and solid
bass without sounding stressed, even at loud levels.
Choose adequate music material
When experimenting to find the optimal location, 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. cover a wide spectrum in the bass region and
are therefore very suitable. Using non-music (such as action movies) material to position
and adjust the subwoofer with, may lead to spectacular results with such material but
almost always it will result in overblown and excessive bass when playing music with the
same setting.
