SUBWOOFER
SUBWOOFER ROOM PLACEMENT
Placement of subwoofers is a process driven by competing variables that di ΍ er in every home.
Décor, oor space, furniture, speaker placement, seating location, and of course, sound quality
all factor into the decision of where a subwoofer should be placed. If you have exibility, there’s
an artistry to subwoofer placement that can be aided by understanding some basic acoustic
principles and set-up techniques.
If you are limited to a single subwoofer location, it’s best to nd the ideal listening location in the
room. You’ll notice as you move through the room, bass response will vary signicantly. This is
due to the complex pattern of standing sound waves in the room. Sometimes simply moving a
few feet in any given direction can improve the balance and accuracy dramatically. Once you nd
the ‘subwoofer sweet spot’ in the room – reserve that seat for yourself!
Corner Placement
Corner placement of a subwoofer reduces the potential to encounter nulls, which are acoustic
cancellation points or ‘dead spots’ in the room. While this can often make for hugely impactful
bass, it can sometimes result in a “boomy” sound depending on your listening position. If you
experience this, you can use the tuning controls to blend your SB-4000 more smoothly with your
speakers or try pulling it further away from the walls to smooth out the bass response.
