Q Acoustics Q B12 Owner's Manual page 6

Positioning
Bass frequencies are substantially omni-directional. Although this means that you can position
the subwoofer almost anywhere, the stereo image will still benefit from positioning the subwoofer
in line with the front loudspeakers and as central to the listening position as possible. This may
not be feasible in a multichannel system. If you place the subwoofer too close to a wall the bass
will be reinforced, therefore in some locations the bass may be boomy and indistinct.
The POWER Switch is the means of disconnecting this apparatus from the mains supply and is
mounted on the control panel.
When positioning the subwoofer ensure the floor is sound with no loose floorboards etc. The
air movement from the subwoofer at high volumes is substantial - do not place it close to soft
furnishings or objects that may rattle. Do not place objects of any kind on the unit.
All the loudspeakers may be operated close to TV monitors with no ill-
effects with the exception of the Q B12 which should not be operated
within 500mm of TV screens monitors or other magnetically sensitive
equipment. Plasma and LCD screens are unaffected.
