Two subwoofers??


I have an MX-700 sub. I love the speed that the twin 8" drivers deliver, but I could use more "impact". I know that this sub is room sensitive, and it has been placed with care, so I am fairly certain that I am getting all I can from the sub. I have been toying with the idea of adding a second MX-700 (my wife does not know this). I know that you can gain up to 6db from a second sub, but I am worried about sound cancellation. My question is this:

Has anyone tried a second sub, and what were the overall effects?

and

For anyone that has a second sub, what placement is the best to avoid sound cancellation?

Love to hear from anyone whose wife is more understanding of this fun hobby.......

I've got a pair of Sunfire True Sub Signatures in my main system. I'm using them stacked, along a wall. I have adjusted the phase of one of them by ear to avoid cancellation with my main speakers. I've set the phase of the other one to be identical with the first one, so they will reinforce rather than cancel. It sounds pretty good.
