5. Подешавање

5.1 Постављање

Subwoofer placement significantly impacts bass performance. Experiment with different locations in your room to find the best balance of output and smoothness. Common placement options include:

• Угаони положај: Often provides the most output but can sometimes lead to boomy bass.
• Front Wall Placement: Near the main speakers, can improve integration with the front soundstage.
• Mid-Room Placement: Can offer smoother bass response but may require more power.

Consider using the 'subwoofer crawl' method: place the subwoofer in your primary listening position, play bass-heavy music, and crawl around the room to find where the bass sounds best. That location is often ideal for the subwoofer.

Speaker-Level Connection (For Amplifiers without Subwoofer Output)

1. Повежите жице звучника са вашег amplifier's left and right speaker outputs to the 'Speaker Level Input' terminals on the DS1200.
