In installations with four woofers the best locations for the four

woofers will be in each of the four corners of the room. The second

option would be to put one woofer on each wall in the center.

Four Woofer Placement

In installations with one woofer the best location will be in the right

or left front corner of the room. The second option would be on the

front wall in the center of the room. The third option would be

between the corner and the center at the ¼ position.

One Woofer Placement

Subwoofer placement is a very complicated subject. The ultimate

performance of a subwoofer is very room and placement

dependent.

With in room subwoofers the location can be adjusted for best

performance. With an in-wall subwoofer the location is permanent

and must be decided during construction. With this in mind the

placement suggestions in this manual have the highest probability

for success in most rooms.
