4 Velodyne HGS-15's or 2 Velodyne HGS-18's?


Given this choice, which route, and why, would you go?
Building a theater and will either go with a pair of HGS-18s on either side of the center, and on the insides of the outter speakers, OR 4 HGS-15s. They would be placed in the same position, but 2 HGS-15s would be stacked on each other!

Thoughts?

For what it is worth, a single 15 would probably be sufficient for the room, but isn't 75% of what we buy overkill anyway?

Thanks for the insight.

I wouldn't stack the 15's and I would suggest putting the subs outside the main speakers. Almost no manufacturer reccommends the inside the main setup. If you want four subs put them in four corners. The Velodyne 18's are great so use em. I personally have two Revel sub-15s and they fantastic both for music and HT. In the scene in Matrix where the helicoter hits the building these things are bone jarring.
