Bass frequencies are non-directional, meaning the human ear cannot locate a properly functioning subwoofer in a typical home theater environment. While there are “rules of thumb” regarding placement options, every room is a little differ- ent.

AMPLIFIER CONNECTIONS AND CONTROLS VOLUME CONTROL The VOLUME control is used to adjust the output level of the subwoofer. This control should be set to a similar level as your loudspeakers in order to achieve a properly blended sound stage. Proper calibration procedures should be used to adjust the level of your subwoofer.
CONNECTING YOUR SUBWOOFER WARNING - Always be sure the power is OFF to any audio com- ponent before connecting or disconnecting any wires or cables. This includes your receiver, processor, and subwoofer. Connecting your new subwoofer is relatively easy as long as you are using a modern DD/DTS 5.1 or 7.1 receiver or processor.
