Off Centre Sub Woofer

Why Studio Subwoofers Are Placed Off-Centre. When you walk into a professionally treated studio and notice that the subwoofer isn’t sitting perfectly between the main monitors, you might wonder — why place such an expensive piece of gear off-centre? It’s not a design quirk or aesthetic choice. The position of the subwoofer has a major impact on how evenly the low frequencies behave in your room — and off-centre placement is often the key to smooth, accurate bass response.
