Placement
Proper placement of your new Power Sound Audio subwoofer is
very important. Bass frequencies are non-directional, meaning
the human ear cannot locate a properly functioning subwoofer
in a typical home theater environment. While there are “rules of
thumb” regarding placement options, every room is a little differ-
ent. Please remember that each time you move the subwoofer
to a different location you should recalibrate the bass levels and
experiment a little to ensure the phase setting is optimized.
Corner placement tends to work well, particularly if there are no
large openings into the room near the corner. Another popular
placement option is “nearfi eld”. Place the subwoofer as close
as possible to the key seating positions. For example, place the
subwoofer directly behind the sofa. Every room has its own set of
acoustical challenges, so experiment with different placement op-
tions as much as time allows.
One method that often works well (particularly if the key seating
positions are in close proximity to one another) is to place the sub-
woofer in your key seating position and then walk around the room
while a variety of bassy music and fi lm play through the system.
Mark the top 2 or 3 spots where the bass seems to sound best,
then try the subwoofer in those spots. If you purchased a ported
Power Sound Audio subwoofer (XV15 or XV30), please maintain
a minimum of three inches of clearance between the port opening
on your subwoofer and the nearest wall or obstruction.
If you are using more than one subwoofer, placing them as close
as possible (collocate) to one another will give you the maxi-
mum clean output capabilities, but separating them may give you
smoother overall bass response at your seating positions. Again,
experiment as much as time allows and decide which option
sounds best to you.
