The use of a subwoofer with a built-in amplifier, such as

the Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System,

is effective not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from

any or all channels, but also for high fidelity sound

reproduction of the LFE (low-frequency effect) channel

included in Dolby Digital and DTS sources. The position

of the subwoofer is not so critical, because low bass

sounds are not highly directional. But it is better to place

the subwoofer near the front speakers. Turn it slightly

toward the center of the room to reduce wall reflections.
