Sony HCD-GX40 - Manual (Page 9)

Placing the sub woofer (MHC-GX40
only)
Since the human ear cannot detect the direction
and position where the bass sound being
reproduced by a woofer (below 150 Hz) comes
from, you can place the woofer wherever you
like in your room. To obtain a better bass
reproduction, we recommend you to place the
woofer on a solid floor where the resonance is
unlikely to occur.
Notes
• Always place the woofer vertically, keeping a few
centimeters from away the wall.
• If the woofer is placed in the center of a room, the
bass could be extremely weakened. This is due to
the influence of the standing wave of the room. If
this happened, move the woofer away from the
center of a room or eliminate the cause of the
standing wave, by placing a bookshelf on the wall,
etc.

Tip
With normal use, the batteries should last for about
six months. When the remote no longer operates the
system, replace both batteries with new ones.
Note

remove the batteries to avoid possible damage from
battery leakage.
