Hello I was wondering to complete my 5.0 (playbar + 2x play:1) with a Sonos sub in order to have a full 5.1 system. I have some doubts about its placement. I would like to placement it behind The table in The left angle (see pictures attached). In your opinion will it be a good placement?
It will be same side of The playbar.
Another option would be on The right side but I am worried for The heat coming from the radiator (see Last picture).

Thanks

The placement of the Sub will not effect the sound quality as it is not directional. I would agree that not placing it near the radiator is a good idea. Hope that helps.

Hello, this is my final setup. The radiator is OK since no heat comes in that direction. Sub surface is everythime very very cold.
Anyway, as a matter of fact, I’m closing one of 2 holes by having the sub really near to the piece of furniture.

Could it be a problem?

The piece of furniture is wood

As long as it doesn't touch the furniture you'll be fine - you might get some vibration noise if touching.
