Always start with the subwoofer
as close to one of the front cor-
ners as possible to take advan-
tage of solid-angle gains. If you
get too much bass, adjust the
”VOLUME” towards ”MIN”. The
result will be lower distortion
and higher reliability. If the
excessive bass is at one or more
discrete frequencies, then it
might be necessary to consider
dealing with room modes.
