Hello Zeneith:
Congrats on your purchase of an excellent sub.
The Sunfire subs are best away from room boundaries. Try to keep it away from corners. Try the sub midway between your MG 1.6 speakers, either in the same plane or behind.
Try not to turn up the volume (for music) more than 1/4 of the adjustment. For the 1.6 try a crossover setting of about 40Hz (you need to experiment)
Keep in mind that the volume and phase controls are very sensitive. Very small changes in volume and phase will have a noticeable effect on the sound
For seemless blending, after adjusting the volume to the "right level", use the phase control to enhance the blending with the main speakers and to remove the "muddines" and restore the air in your system
Finally, it requires a lot of patience and experimentation.
Musical bliss will not be attained overnight. But the benefits of a well intergrated sub is worth the effort.
Happy listening.
George
