3m Placing the subwooferIt is recommended to place the subwoofer on the outside ofeither the right or the left main speaker. (See fig. Å .) Theplacement shown in fig. ı is also possible, however, if thesubwoofer system is placed directly facing the wall, thebass effect may die because the sound from it and thesound reflected by the wall may cancel out each other. Toprevent this from happening, face the subwoofer system atan angle as shown in fig. Å.NoteThere may be a case that you cannot obtain enough super-bass sounds from the subwoofer when listening in thecenter of the room. This is because “standing waves” havebeen developed between two parallel walls and they cancelthe bass sounds.In such a case, face the subwoofer obliquely to the wall. Italso may be necessary to break up the parallel surfaces byplacing bookshelves etc. along the walls.( : Subwoofer, : Main speaker)ıÅSETTING UP THE SPEAKERSBefore making connections, place all speakers in their respective positions.
