Placing Your Subwoofer in a Room Your PSW Series subwoofer is not magnetically shielded. Do not place near video monitors. (LCD, DLP and Plasma televisions are not affected by magnetism.) Allow at least 18" (45cm) of space between your subwoofer and any television, but if you do notice video distortion or discoloration, immediately move the subwoofer away from the TV. Suggested Speaker Placement Suggested speaker placement with options for rear speaker placement. Subwoofer should be placed more than six inches from wall anywhere in the room. Note: Additional satellite speakers may be purchased for 6.1, 7.1 or 9.2 surround systems by contacting Polk customer service at 1-800-377-7655.
