Yeah, I've tried that, it doesn't matter where I place the sub, if it's not facing the listening position, you can't hear or feel any bass at all. Unfortunately, I don't have a true corner to put the sub in, so the levels have to be higher than I like. If I turn the sub down enough where I can't tell where it is, the bass is all but gone. If I turn the volume up to the point where the sub is starting to sound decent, it's distracting because you can hear the sub seperate from the front speakers when listening to music. I can't figure out for the life of me what I'm doing wrong, or how to correct it.
