It depends on the dimensions of the room, the objects in it (whether normal furnishings or intentionally installed acoustic material) and its interaction with bass notes in general, which in turn is affected by the position of the subwoofer in the room, which in turn is affected by the interaction of the subwoofer with the speakers. That latter combination is most complicated near the crossover frequency where both the sub and speakers are putting out a substantial amount of sound.
I'm sure that an experience acoustics engineer starts much closer to the desired mark than us ordinary people, but for us, experimentation is the key. Just keep in mind that the best spots may not impress your spouse very much. ;-)
