Thanks for your reply and sharing your experience on the use of dual subs, and where and how to connect them. That's exactly how I'm running mine, closely flanking the mains and in stereo (see my profile). I did consider placing the subs diagonally, but for now the current configuration will remain. I just recently implemented a few acoustical tweaks and a subtle PEQ correction on the subs, and it made a worthwhile difference making the response down low flatter while having a positive influence through the midrange on up. It's amazing what minor tweaks can do, when you know where to put them into effect.
From my experience so far.if you have two subs run them in stereo next to your mains. Basically creating "TRUE" full range speakers. No matter what your mains claim to be on the brochure. If you have more than two Mono is the way to go and aim them away from you like Duke says. Swarm Subs aka more than 3 can act as room treatments by cancelling nodes or adding room nodes to make you smile. Although I am going to test this theory in my room this week. Getting another AMP tomorrow to have 4 independent channels of amplification with separate X overs, phase, and volume control for each of the four 4 subs. I will run them both ways and see what I like best. Also side note 16 ohm with the subs can sound better than 4 ohms even though your getting more juice outta the Bass Amp at 4 ohms. Its past my IQ but it does change the sounds better sometime sometimes not.
Just my 2 cents.
Allgood!
