Im building a cusom subwoofer cabinet and was wondering where in location to the couch should I try to place it? Thanks |

I have a serious answer. Trust me... You have two choices. #1 Sit in your normal viewing position. Have some one else move the sub around the room until you like the sound... and leave it there. #2 Put the SUB in YOUR normal viewing position. YOU move around the room until you like the sound... and then put the sub THERE. have a good one. |
What is a good test sound? Movie bass is so much just the hit and not a constant sound. |

keep it low, as low-tone vibrations mixing with higher-set tones in the air sounds relly strange and can be distorted. Dont put anything on top of the sub because it will rattle, or in the case of putting a TV on top of it, distort the image and feed itself. Just think of constantly shaking a DVD player while watching a movie. No good. Listen to Stainless. Good call |
Number 1 is the proper way to do it. Generally speaking, in the front to one side usually works altough your room dimensions may create standing waves in certain positions. |
No, they produce sound that is highly reflective, which people call non-directional. Placement is for getting the reflections you want. The default position is a corner because that is where three reflecive surfaces are located that can put the sound out into the room. |
