Single vs Dual Subs

Let's assume the budget is around $2k.

On the one hand, you could pick up a used/demo JL Audio or Velodyne DD-series. On the other, you could get a pair of new subs from Hsu Research or SVS. Given that the solution has to work well for 2-channel music as well as 5-channel movies, what would sway one in one direction or the other?

Thanks,
Lou

I use to use a single sub(double duty for 2 channel and HT.
I purchased another for dedicated 2 channel and other for HT.
I then experimented with 2 for 2 channel(WAY BETTER)
lays a nice blanket of bottom end for the high pitched instruments.
Using one sub for 2 channel before was like a bird with one wing,she just couldn't fly.lopsided if you will.
Now when I do movies I just connect the rca to my sub and disconnect the XLR for the music side(until I aquire another).one doesn't do it for me anymore.
