Placement 13
Generally, subwoofers have the most output when placed in
the corner of a room. However, this can also exaggerate the
subwoofers output making blending difficult. We recom-
mend starting by placing the Depth in a corner. It should
be placed in such a way that there are 2 inches between the
grill cloth and the wall. This will avoid blocking the output
of any woofers. If, after the full range of tuning techniques
have been employed, the subwoofer sounds like it has too
much upper bass energy try pulling it away from the wall,
toward the listening position. This will lessen the reinforce-
ment of these problematic frequencies from the wall and
likely smooth out the response. Repeat the tuning techniques
with the woofer controls after you move it (see figure 15).
Installing the Depth in a Cabinet
Occasionally people need to place their subwoofer(s) inside
of cabinetry. The Depth’s unique, three-woofer design does
not compromise the Depth’s ability to be successfully
installed in such a configuration. However, it is recommend-
ed that the Depth, as with any quality multi-driver subwoofer,
has a minimum of three inches of open space between the
cabinet and the front, left and right sides (see figure 16).
Ask Your Dealer
Your MartinLogan dealer can suggest many options for
optimal subwoofer placement. They also have many tools
at their disposal, such as experience, familiarity with the
associated equipment and even sound analysis equipment
which may make the task of determining optimal subwoofer
placement easier.
Enjoy Yourself
The Depth is a very refined subwoofer and will benefit
from care in setup. With the above placement tips in mind
you will find, over months of listening, that small changes
can result in measurable differences. As you live with your
subwoofer, do not be afraid to experiment with positioning
until you find the optimal relationship between your room,
settings and subwoofer that gives you the best results. Your
efforts will be rewarded.
