Getting started
Everybody knows subwoofers deliver floor-shakin' bass, but they can also pump up the realism and sound quality of your home theater. Or not. If you plopped your sub behind a potted plant, you're probably missing out on most of the sub's potential. We'll take you through the process of connecting, setting up, calibrating, and placing your subwoofer. Invest an hour or two following our step-by-step process, and you could very well end up with a home theater that offers dramatically improved sound.
