GETTING STARTED
Please inspect your subwoofer and its
drivers carefully. Notify your Polk dealer
if you notice any damage or missing
items. Keep the carton and packing
material. They will do the best job of
protecting your PSW1200 if it needs
to be transported.
PLACEMENT
The Polk PSW1200 subwoofer may be
placed anywhere in the room, but for
the greatest possible bass output, place
the subwoofer near a corner of the
room. Due to a room acoustics phenom-
enon called standing waves, bass
response may be uneven throughout a
room. In some areas of the room, the
bass will be very loud, in others very
weak. Experiment with subwoofer place-
ment to find the location that yields the
deepest, tightest bass in your favorite
listening position.
Allow at least 6 inches (15cm) of space
between any subwoofer driver and a
wall or obstruction.
