Stereo Subs - Do they need to be identical?


I'm thinking of getting a couple of subwoofers to mate with my MBL 121 monitors. Generally, I've seen setups where people use two subs of the same brand and size. I'm wondering whether it can make sense to use two different sizes. For example - a Venoyne DD12 and a DD15. I'm likely going to go with Velodyne DD series or JL Audio.

In particular, I note that the big Velodyne 1812 uses an 18 inch and 12 inch woofer, with suppsed benefits in terms of speed (12 inch) and extension and depth (18 inch).

i do not see a tv or projector. is this a 2channel music set up? if so skip the subs you really don't need them unless you are looking for an exagerated bottom end. subs very tuff to set up with out affecting the mids and upper end and not being an exagerated lower end. first class home theater system, yes(for action movies only), 2 channel music only NO! my thoughts anyway. could move that tt off the ground though.
