Since your ears do not hear directional sound at deep bass frequencies, your subwoofer’s placement is not as critical to its over- all performance as is the placement of your system’s other speakers. The following guidelines — plus some experimentation will help you get the best performance possible from your subwoofer in your listening environment. We suggest starting with the subwoofer in line with your left and right speakers, somewhere between either speaker and the side wall (see Figure 1).
