SUBWOOfer pLaCeMent
The placement of your new ENERGY subwoofer is critical to its performance. The
three most common locations include: in the corner of the room (which can result
in a boomy or exaggerated low frequency response), placement along one wall
but out of the corner (moderate bass performance with increased fidelity over cor-
ner placement), or alongside a front speaker (creating a better blend with the front
speaker, but sacrificing overall volume). Experimentation with subwoofer place-
ment is highly encouraged, as slight adjustments can create large benefits in
sound reproduction. To further test subwoofer placement, install the subwoofer
temporarily in your main listening position and while playing a familiar piece of
music, walk around the listening room until you find the best sounding position.
This is a possible location for the subwoofer to be placed.
