same clarity and loudness. Avoid places where some notes
“hang” or sound louder or softer. You may find a couple of
spots, so choose the most convenient one.

4.

Once you find that spot, move the G928 to this spot, and
hook it back up. When you’re back in the listening seat, the
bass should sound clean, tight and smooth.

Positioning the G928 for Home Theater
If you have a dual purpose system, music and video, you might
consider following the music setup instructions as above (if space
allows). Even if you are using the sub-woofer for home theater only,
the position where the bass sounds smoothest should still be the best
position for the low frequency effects channel.

Typically, in video applications, the front three speakers, Left, Right,
and Center (LCR) speakers are on stands, or are mounted to the wall
or many times, they are the same speakers used with your music
system with the addition of the center channel. Depending on the
availability of space, you may place a G928 in the front or back of the
system. Try to not place the subwoofer in the middle of any wall, and
keep the subwoofer asymmetrically in the room. The goal is not to
have it the same distance from any two walls including the ceiling.

However, there are a number of possible positioning schemes for
home theater applications, and our first recommendation is that you
visit with the dealer you purchased your video sound system from and
get his or her advice.

In a dual woofer system, it is permissible to place one subwoofer in
front and one subwoofer in the rear to increase the “surround effect” in
your video system if you wish.

LFE Input

The Low Frequency Effects (LFE) input allows the G928 to be used for
both augmentation of the satellite speakers as well as for the LFE of
your home theater system. The LFE input blends the low frequency
effects signal from the home theatre processor into the normal input
signal on the subwoofer. We call this our LFE Blend™ technology.

The LFE input bypasses the internal crossover, and hence uses the
home theatre processor’s crossover. This means that in a home
theater system that uses small satellite speakers that are not capable
of delivering low bass, the G928 can be used to augment the satellite
