Typical dual subwoofer positioning methods are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2. That is the most common positioning method for veteran players with a two-channel Hi-End audio experience. The distance between the two subwoofers and the seat is equal to the distance between the left and right channel speakers.
How far apart should 2 subwoofers be?
If we add one second subwoofer, it should not be placed over a greater distance than two-thirds of the wavelength of the maximum frequency that they are to played, measured from the center of a subwoofer to the center of the other.
How close can subwoofers be to each other?
However, if your subwoofer is of the ported variety, first try to get it as far away from the wall as possible. A good rule of thumb is around 6” from a wall or corner, or more if you can get away with it.
How far apart should subwoofers be placed?
Try to keep the sub within 4 or 5 feet of the left or right front speakers. Which leads to my next bit of advice, don't put the subwoofer in a corner. Granted, there are significant advantages to corner placement, mainly that in a corner the sub will produce more bass, with lower distortion.
Does 2 subs sound better than 1?
The answer to this question is typically yes, assuming you're comparing one vs. two subs of the exact same brand and model #. In almost all circumstances, installing multiple subwoofers in your theater room will yield significantly better and smoother bass response across a wider listening area due to modal averaging.
Where should I place my second subwoofer?
Recommended Placement Locations for Dual Subwoofers
- Opposite diagonal front/rear corners.
- At the mid-points of the side walls.
- Front stage in the corners.
- Front stage flanking the center channel to the inside of the main speakers.
Do dual subwoofers need to match?
Dual subwoofers need to match each other and the other speakers in your system to prevent chances of sound distortion. You can mix and match dual subwoofers, but it can yield negative results.
Can you put 2 subwoofers next to each other?
That's right: if you want the smoothest, most even bass across your whole room, having dual subwoofers is the way to go. That's because two subs, placed at strategic locations in the room, will help to smooth out bass modes and nodes (i.e. peaks and dips) throughout the room for more even low frequency distribution.
Can 2 subwoofers face each other?
In short, yes. Subwoofers can face each other as long as both subwoofers are wired correctly. In fact, subwoofers play louder when they are facing each other. If one of the subwoofers is wired incorrectly, its output audio signal will be out of phase with the other subwoofer, and this can cause phasing issues.
