Subwoofer on hardwood or carpet (1 Viewer)

[MartinShaver]

I just bought a set of Harman Kardon HKTS-15 speakers with a 100W down firing ported sub. The port is to the rear of the sub enclosure. The receiver I am using is a Harman Kardon AVR-147.

Is it better to have the sub on the hardwood floor or have a small rug under it?

It doesn't really matter when you are sending LFE frequencies to the sub. If some higher frequencies are bleeding through, then a rug may help. If you have a scrap of carpet, run a test and let us know the results.
