Hi
I'm in the process of redecorating my sitting room so have the opportunity to reroute speaker cables
My current Subwoofer is a Onkoyo SKW-501E I don't have the budget to upgrade this at the moment
I think I need to as occasionally with sudden sounds I get a fuss
I did the subwoofer crawl and it didn't really help with where to place the sub now and when I can upgrade more importantly RCA cable
The TV & amp (Denon avr-x2700h ) is situated across a corner of the room in between outside wall / window and chimney
Under this window is a radiator
I can just fit floor standing Left & Right speakers either side with 2 Atmos uplifters on top
The main seat is directly in front with 2 rear speaker approximately 45 & 135 degrees behind this seat
I have basically 3 options to place the subwoofer
1 In the space behind the TV There is room here without it being in the corner or against the wall
The TV sits on a 3 shelf Glass stand with centre speaker and AMP underneath so not a solid object
I could not test this position
2 To the left of the left speaker this would be in front of a radiator. (Can't go on the right as there an open fire in the way)
3 Directly behind the main seat, this is the current position with RCA cable running under the afore mentioned radiator
If I keep the subwoofer at 3 I have the opportunity to run a longer RCA cable
So my question is it better the place a subwoofer in front or behind the main seat or out of the way behind the Telly?
