The worst location for a subwoofer is typically far away from any walls and close to the center of your room. Avoid these locations when possible. When using a pair of Velodyne subwoofers in 2-channel stereo, it is preferable to feed each subwoofer with one channel and place each subwoofer near the satellite of the same channel.
