Velodyne SPL-1200 Series II - Manual (Page 14)

continued. . .
Regardless of where you install your Velodyne subwoofer, it must remain
in an upright position (woofer facing forward). Using, shipping, or
otherwise storing the subwoofer in any other position for an extended
period of time may result in damage to the unit not covered by warranty.
The SPL-1000 Series II and SPL-1200 Series II are magnetically shielded to
reduce the amount of stray magnetic energy emitted from the speaker's
motor structure. This greatly increases flexibility when placing the unit
close to video monitors as there is very little stray magnetism. Certain types
of televisions are particularly sensitive to stray magnetic fields. If your
television produces distorted colors after installing your subwoofer,
simply increase the distance between your television and the subwoofer,
until normal color and operation is returned.
Your new Velodyne subwoofer, like any good speaker system, requires
proper positioning within the listening space to provide maximum
performance. Improperly placed speakers may degrade the sound quality
and reduce your listening pleasure. Depending on the size and type of
furnishings in the room, perfect placement may not be possible. Finding
the best location for your environment will likely require some
experimentation. We suggest you experiment with the location during
setup to find what sounds best to you when seated in your typical listening
position.

for a subwoofer is tucked away in a corner of your listening room. This
location will usually offer the greatest output levels and optimum low
frequency extension. The worst location for a subwoofer is typically far
away from any walls, and close to the center of your room. Avoid these
locations when possible. When using a pair of Velodyne subwoofers in
stereo, it is preferable to place each subwoofer by the satellite of the same
channel.
Caution! This subwoofer has electronics built into the cabinet. Do not
place the cabinet next to sources of heat such as furnace registers,
radiators, etc. Do not place the unit near sources of excessive moisture,
such as evaporative coolers, humidifiers, etc. The power cord should be
routed in such a way that it will not be walked on, pinched, or compressed
in any way that could result in damaging the insulation or wire.
