(See fig. placement shown in fig. is also possible, however, if the subwoofer system is placed directly facing the wall, the bass effect may die because the sound from it and the sound reflected by the wall may cancel.

When placing the speaker on top of the TV, to prevent the speaker from falling down, put the provided velcro strips at two points on both bottom of the speaker and top of the TV.

  • Page 15: Active Servo Technology

    Active Servo Processing speakers reproduce the bass frequencies through an “air woofer”, which is a port or opening in the speaker’s cabinet. This opening is used instead of, and performs the functions of, a woofer in a conventionally designed speaker system.
