SUBWOOFER
As the subwoofer only produces low frequency, therefore monaural information, it is difficult to detect
its location by ear. It could as a result be situated anywhere in the room, but optimum performance
will be gained by locating the subwoofer between the main stereo pair of speakers. Bass output will
increase when placed next to a wall or in a corner so use the subwoofer volume control to balance
the output with the rest of the system.
