Infinity HPS-1000 - Manual (Page 7)

Figure 1. This view shows the
subwoofer positioned behind the
right-channel satellite speaker to
re-create the actual location of
bass instruments in an orchestra
and/or add impact to movie sound tracks.
Here are some useful hints:
1. Experimentation with the position of your subwoofer may be useful.
2. If bass response seems inadequate, move it closer to a wall or corner.
It may take time and patience to find the most pleasing acoustic location for your subwoofe
Testing for sonic balance and blending should always be made from your normal listenin
position, using a wide range of source material. As a starting point, initially place the subwoofe
behind your right-channel satellite speaker, six inches from the wall. We suggest trying this loca
tion first because, in an orchestra, the bass instruments are usually located in the back and to th
right (see Figure 1). This position will also allow for emphatic, deep bass while playing movies
