Subwoofer phase setting.

[dis]

<font color='#000000'>I have a single powered sub sitting next-to and below the right speaker with the speaker facing the couch. (ASW-300)

According to the AVIA dvd the phase setting is supposed to be set such that you can hear the highs more clearly rather than the lows and such a setting corresponds to a 0-phase setting on my sub. The 180-degree setting produces much &quot;lower&quot; which fills the low end a lot better than the 0 setting.

What exactly is the purpose of such a setting? What do members here use? Where are their subs placed?</font>

<font color='#000080'>I'm not sure about what you are saying for the AVIA. They have several tests that you can go through in order to set up your subwoofer.

It is the hardest speaker to configure and place.

Currently my Epicentre 350 is set to 180 degrees due to its placement and room acoustics.</font>
