Subwoofer
Overview
A subwoofer is a dedicated bass speaker that adds the deep low end most other speakers can't reproduce. It rounds out a home theater or stereo and shines in living rooms and media rooms where movies and music need impact.
Sizing & placement
It is 15 inches wide, 16 inches deep, and 18 inches tall and sits on the floor. Low bass is hard to locate by ear, so it can go beside the console or in a corner; corners boost bass, so try a few spots.
Where it works
Living rooms, media rooms, and rec rooms; home theater and stereo setups.
