Sub usefulness in constrained placement situation

Hi - I am considering a sub for my system (2 channel & HT). The problem is the furniture/room design means that possibly the only place to put it would be behind the listening positions (couch) where it would have maybe 4' - 5' between couch and wall. Would that degrade the performance ? I was thinking of one of the room adjustable subs - Velo DD or Revel, to help. Any thoughts appreciated

Placement not a problem with room adjustments. If I were you, I'd get the Revel B15. Use fast interconnects, e.g., Signal Cable Silver Resolution, to ensure sub doesn't lag behind main speakers. Don't fret too much about it. Just avoid using fast speaker cables with slow subwoofer cables and you should be fine. I think I still have the name of a guy in California who had good prices on new Revel B15 subwoofers. I'll try to dig it out of my files if you wish.
Best wishes,
Jay
