Whats the best placement for a sub monitor?? mine is at my front right corner and i cannot hear/feel it to good at all. When im standing at the back wall of my studio its perfect....Where should i move it too? It sucks cuz my main monitors have to run through it (cables) so to place it at the back of the room is difficult. Oh and one corner of the back of my studio is a round corner (stupid) but thats how my room is.

Place the sub where your chair usually is. Play some music and then move around the room and listen to where the bass sounds the best/clearest. That is where you should place the sub.
This isn't exact science, but it's helpful.

sounds very logical and a cool idea! wonder if it actually works??

Sub bass is essentially omnidirectional, so it doesn't really matter much. Just keep it relatively close to yourself so you don't get too much damping.

dead center on a 75 degree angle from your monitors.

that is .... in a square, acoustically treated room.

75 degree angle?
