[Q]

The

equipment

is

a

Class

II

electrical

appliance.

It

has

been

designed

in

such

a

way

that

it

does

not

PLACEMENT

OPTIONS

If

possible,

place

the

subwoofer

near

the

front

stage,

for

best

blending

with

the

front

and

center

loudspeaker

channels.

Corner

placement

will

excite

all

room

modes

and

will

reduce

the

chances

for

encountering

a

null

(an

acoustic

cancellation

in

the

bass

response)

at

the

listening

position.

If

the

A/V

receiver

(AVR)

equalizes

the

subwoofer

channel

during

auto-set-up,

corner

placement

will

often

provide

the

best

overall

performance.

and

Always

re-run
