A:Answer LFE or "Subs" are non directional . Normal speakers sound is directional and should be pointed towards the listening field. (which is why you can hear the low boom of car stereos in someone else's car, but cant really hear the actual music/lyrics) But Subs can honestly be placed anywhere, although alot of people will place them in corners to maximize the sound. But with a sub this size, it isn't necessary to do so.
