Hi,

I've read the description of the Subette and I am really curious how is it suppose to be wired and positioned.

In particular when you plan to use just one speaker with your TV. For example when you have a TV stand that has your record player and your amps. The TV itself is mounted on the wall above the stand.

Two Pipette speakers on both sides make sense. Can Subette be on the side? It seems like that would make the bass off center. What about somehow placing it horizontally? What would be a suggestion?

I'd suppose having two Subettes and Sublimes would solve that problem, but that is twice as expensive

Thanks,
Igor.

It crosses over at a low enough frequency that you can get away with it being positioned away from center stage without too much trouble. And yes, you could lay the cabinet on its side if you like.
