THE ADVANTAGE OF USING
TWO SUBWOOFERS
Fig. 2
Fig. 2: When using two subwoofers, placing one in the front of the room
and the other in the rear of the room usually provides the best bass
performance and sonic integration. Consult the "Fine Tuning" section of
this Owners Manual for more information on adjusting phase settings.
If those locations are not possible, or if you want to experiment with
placement options using two subwoofers, the following procedure
will be a helpful guide to achieving better bass performance. Refer to
"Subwoofer Connection" (below) then proceed as follows:
1. Temporarily turn all speakers off (either by turning your amplifier off or
disconnecting them).
2. Connect and place one subwoofer in the central area of your listening
room. Follow directions for connection, as outlined in the following
section.
3. At a moderately loud level, play music or a video soundtrack with
extended bass that is repetitive or continuous.
4. Walk around your room and note where the bass sounds louder and
where it sounds quieter.
5. Place the first subwoofer within a louder bass area of your room; then
place the second subwoofer within a quieter bass area of your room.
6. Connect both subwoofers and switch all speakers back on; and
switch the amplifier on, or reconnect it.
7. Follow the "Fine Tuning" instructions to optimize your system's
overall bass performance.
See your Dealer for connection instructions using two subwoofers.
