LOCATION
The suggestions below will typically result in outstanding performance. However,
although low frequencies are non-directional, factors such as room reections standing
waves, resonance and absorption will strongly affect your subwoofer’s performance.
Since your Procient subwoofer is designed to be professionally installed into your wall,
engineering services from your authorized Procient dealer and/or outside acoustical
resources should be considered to ensure optimum performance.
Preliminary
Before cutting a hole in your wall, it is always best to test the subwoofer in that location
rst. Place it on the floor near to the “possible” location, and connect it to the amplier.
Play some typical bass passages through the subwoofer. This will help you identify any
problems in the sound due to the location, and you may be able to nd a location that
sounds better.
Corner installation
Installing the subwoofer on the front wall, towards the corner will reinforce the low
frequencies. This is best suited for:
Rooms larger than 200 square feet where a single subwoofer will be used
For dedicated home theaters
For listeners who enjoy “heavy” bass.
