Room Setup Suggestions

Rear Surround Speakers (continued)
For best performance, you may want to experiment with angling the surround speakers either
towards or away from the listening position.
Subwoofer
Placement of the subwoofer will largely determine quality, quantity, and extension of
the bass frequencies within your listening room. Bass frequencies are reinforced by
close room boundaries. Placing the subwoofer in a corner will make the subwoofer
sound louder and boost the very lowest frequencies. Placing the subwoofer away from
walls will provide the least reinforcement, making the bass sound subjectively thinner.
Good results can usually be obtained by placing a subwoofer along a wall 1- feet from
a corner. Experiment with subwoofer placement and the sub-amplifier controls to
achieve the proper bass balance.
