If you’re running smaller speakers then a subwoofer is a must as it can fill in all the missing frequencies lost by the small speakers, think of your car, small speakers but you almost certainly have a subwoofer or two lurking behind the dash to keep that sound quality up.

If the room has nasty standing-wave problems — and almost all home studios do — it's vital that these acoustical problems are sorted out first, before you spend money or time on a subwoofer. The best advice is to keep the subwoofer to the corner of the room near the listening area, or by your front speakers.

They try to control the bass notes to fill your surrounding with a high-quality sound. Moreover, they try to minimize the bad sound from your subwoofer to enhance your listening experience. They fill in the bottom-end of your music with deep bass, depth and realism and transform your speaker system into a power house. Manufacturers such as SVS and Paradigm even offer remote apps that allow you to complete setup and control of the subwoofer using a smart device. They also include a degree of bass correction, allowing users to optimise the sub’s performance based on the room’s acoustics. What’s the best place to put a subwoofer? There is always a never-ending debate on whether you need a subwoofer stand or not. Some state that a subwoofer can neither release a bass nor create the dramatic effect with a subwoofer stand.

According to the rest, these subwoofer stands are entirely worthless. These are all the negative aspects that these stand hold. But they are always not true. Even these subwoofer stands also have numerous positive sides.Improved sound quality - reduce audio reflection from surfaces and position the speaker at optimal listening height A high-level connection is primarily used for two-channel amplifiers that don’t have a dedicated subwoofer output. However, a multichannel AV amplifier or receiver will have a dedicated subwoofer output, so all you need is a single cable to connect to the LFE input on the sub. This brings us to one of the most intimidating aspects of installing a subwoofer – the best place to position it. We touched on this when discussing the orientation of a subwoofer’s driver, but it’s also important to consider how the shape and dimensions of a particular space affect a sub’s overall bass response. Auralex Acoustics SubDude-II platform comes next in this list. Though it is a bit expensive, it is entirely okay with the techniques and features it offers. Don't be fooled by the size of the subwoofer. Bigger doesn't necessarily mean better, or even greater low frequency extension, although it does usually equate with louder; that business about needing to move a lot of air, again. Alignment

Whether you want a subwoofer or not really comes down to personal choice, remember that subwoofers have a volume control so your home doesn't need to resemble an ASDA car park on a Friday night!IsoAcoustics Inc. has been manufacturing and distributing isolation products in the audio industry since January 2012. The patented IsoAcoustics technology is based on years of experience in the design and construction of radio and television studios. The driving force is Dave Morrison, closely involved in planning and building radio and television studios at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation for close to 20 years. Dave Morrison was part of the design team faced with the challenges of building the world’s largest multi-media centre in Toronto: over 1.72 million square feet, with recording studios for drama, music, and chamber ensembles, special effects, radio and television shows. An easy way of achieving high efficiency is to place the driver in what's called a 'band-pass cabinet'. This is essentially a resonant, tuned box, with the driver hidden inside and the sound escaping through one or more ports. You see these quite commonly on cheap home theatre systems and in car 'boom boxes.' Although efficient (for which read loud!), this kind of design always tends to sound boomy, with a one-note kind of response. This is great for film explosions and crashes, but is not much use if you want to hear which notes the bassist is playing, so it is best avoided for serious monitoring duties. In most homes, walls are parallel to one another and since apartments are smaller, they tend to be much closer to one another than we have been used to when seeing subwoofers in large party halls. If there is a phase control on your subwoofer, as on the PMC TLE1 pictured here, you will find that small phase adjustments can often make surprisingly large differences to the smoothness of the crossover region, especially if the subwoofer and satellites are from different manufacturers. The room's own acoustic properties are of paramount importance. If you put the world's best subwoofer in an acoustically poor room, you'll get very poor bass performance! I have frequently come across monitoring systems where the owner has added a subwoofer in the hope of curing a weak or lumpy bass response, only to discover the situation either doesn't improve or actually gets worse!

How the driver is mounted will be a factor, with a choice of forward, downward or sideways. Since bass is non-directional, the design doesn’t actually make a massive difference to performance, but which is best for you will depend on where you want to position the subwoofer. If it’s at the front of the room and near your main speakers, then a forward-firing sub can be a good choice.IsoAcoustics Iso-200 subwoofer stand comes first in the list of the best subwoofer stand.

There are a variety of ways to do this, whether its by storing it in a cabinet, on a sturdy table, mounting it to the wall or simply purchasing a dedicated stand for it.
