Hi Jason,

A good rule of thumb to remember in placing any floorstanding speaker or subwoofer that's capable of extended deep bass is that the closer you put the speaker to "nearby room boundaries", which means the walls and the floor, the greater the emphasis of deep bass there will be. With floorstanding speakers, we can't do anything about the floor, but you can vary the distance from the side and back walls. If you hear too much bass, then move the speaker farther out from the wall behind and/or side walls.

It's very dependent on your room and setup, including where your couch or chairs are located, so you will need to experiment.

Regards,
Alan
