Do the shelves on the lower left/right have to be installed or could they be left out to fit something like a subwoofer?

They are removable shelves that you need to put a little peg into in order for them to be mounted - so you can leave them out if the item you are trying to fit there is larger than the height of the shelves.

They don't have to be installed and if not it would leave room for something like a sub.

I just bought this and put it together and I see no reason why you would have to put the shelf in. It is only sitting on pegs. Only the bottom shelves are moveable. I would recommend this to anyone. I really like it!

Yes you do, however speakers on both sides of sub woofer so I turned mine to the side for easier access to volumn. Great speakers though, excellent sound for the price!

It should be okay as long as the shelf is open on both ends. You don't want to cover up the speakers on each end of the soundbar.

I bought a set of Sanus stands at Best Buy. Although the reflex ports are somewhat blocked by the position of the speakers, this hasn't been a real problem. I also mounted the speakers with the curved rod facing opposite the way the manufacturer intended, primarily because the bottom of the speakers rested on the rod when the curve goes the way it's intended. Because of where I have the speakers (relatively hidden by furniture) it doesn't matter. It all boils down to how you want the speakers to fit into your own theater space, I guess.

the shelves connect to the sides of the cabinet. I bought it for attaching to the bottom of the cabinet and wound up giving it to my sister who had a cabinet it could fit

Pam, all shelves are fixed with screws, so you could remove them. This will leave holes, which could be plugged. Remember that the shelves provide stability to the system. I am sure you would want to remove the shelf before you assemble the device. A great system.

They should come specifically one for left and one for right. If you receive 2 left speakers, for example, both subwoofers will fire in the same direction. Typically, you want the subwoofers each facing the outside of the room.

I am not sure, but there are separate pieces to it at different lengths. If you need it shorter you can just leave a section out, but you might not be able to use all of the shelves if you do.

You can put the shelves where you like, but make sure you anchor the unit to the wall if there is not enough weight on the bottom!

They do not. My solution was to get a shelf cut a little bigger than the size of the speakers to place them on. Remember that they are big bookshelf speakers.

You could assemble the unit without the center shelf. There may be some small holes visible on the back. You could plug them if necessary. It is a well built and solid unit.

No. They are integrated just behind the bottom front of the frame. Imagine a picture frame; speakers are facing down behind the smooth frame of the long bottom.

Yes. They are removable and can be adjusted. The two shelves each have three levels where they can be installed.

Rear ported speakers, such as these, require that there be about a foot or so between the rear of the speaker and the wall. You can mount the speakers any way you like but you'll loose some bottom end.

No, you do not have to install the shelves. I am thinking about ordering another cabinet and using it as a closet.

Yes they are. Can place the shelves anywhere on the rail that mounts to the wall. I like it for the price. Thought it would be difficult to hide the wires but was surprised how easy the pieces worked, after I figured out a system
