Subwoofer Location Selection

The Sonance Landscape Series is designed to deliver a seamless,
evenly dispersed sound field in an 'open air' environment. An array
of multiple satellite speakers and subwoofers should be strategically
placed to minimize 'hot spots' and 'nulls' as you move around the
outdoor entertainment area. See Figure 1.
As a general guideline, (1) subwoofer will cover about
2000 square feet of listening area
Figure 1 shows the SLS HIGHOUTPUT placed along the perimeter
of the entertainment area.
Select a central location for the subwoofer if using only one subwoofer
(see figure 1) if using multiple subwoofers, select locations that are
the same distance from the main listening area.

The maximum number of satellites and subwoofers that can be
used in a system will depend on the quantity of amplifier power
available.
