The best audio experience is usually at a listening position in the middle, between the speakers and
at least at the same distance from the front speakers as it is between them. It is also here that your
subwoofer should deliver the best possible sound.
The Dynavoice CSB-V type subwoofers are equipped with a front firing slot type bass reflex port,
place this facing away from any walls or obstacles, this applies for all the examples that follow.
Hi-Fi setup (stereo)
Front speakers - Place your front speakers 3-4
meters apart, about 0,5-1 meter away from the rear
and side wall. The tweeters should be at the same
height as your ears when you are comfortably
sitting in your listening position and the angle of
the speakers should be 22-30 degrees towards you.
Subwoofer - Place the subwoofer in the middle,
centered between your speakers with the front
facing your listening position. You can use this as a
start off point and move it sideways to try some
alternatives. If you place the subwoofer in a corner
you will usually experience more bass.

Home cinema setup (5.1 & 7.1)
Front speakers (L&R) – When positioning the front speakers, the tweeters should be at the same
height as your ears when you are comfortably sitting in your listening position. The angle of the
speakers should be 22-30 degrees towards you. Also test different distances from the wall, this will
usually affect the bass tones.
Center Speaker - Make sure that it is placed in the middle, centered between the front speakers,
place it above or below your screen, and try to tilt it so that it is aimed to ear level.
Surround Speakers (L&R) – Place the surround speakers approximately 50cm above ear level, and
aim them 90-110 degrees towards the listening position.
Rear Speakers (L&R 7.1) – Place the extra rear speakers at same height as the standard surround
speakers, and position them so that they have a 135-150-degree angle against the listening position.
Using one subwoofer: Place the subwoofer in the middle, centered between your speakers with the
front facing your listening position. You can use this as a start off point and move it sideways to try
some alternatives. If you place the subwoofer in a corner you will usually experience more bass.
Using two subwoofers: Place the subwoofers in the front two corners, or one subwoofer on the
opposite side diagonally across from each other or center the subwoofers between the front
speakers straight across from each other.
2.0/2.1 SETUP

Hi-Fi Stereo Systems (RCA connection)
Use a RCA signal cable between the Sub pre-out L/R and the subwoofer L/R input. If your Proces-
sor/Pre-Amp/Receiver has a single Sub pre-out use a RCA Y-split signal cable.
If your Processor/Pre-Amp/Receiver has a 12V trigger output, use a 3.5mm mono cable between
the output and the Trigger 12V input on the subwoofer.
Use an RCA signal cable to connect the main subwoofer pre-out L/R to the input L/R on the second
subwoofer, repeat this connection with basically as many subwoofers you need in your system.
