I’ve always been able to hear where they are . And thats not good .
Then they are running higher than 80Hz.
To hear sound below 30 you need way too much volume. That would disturb my neighbors below.
And the peaks, valleys, and echo slap are too much to deal with.
Multiple (4 or 5) subwoofers ruin the bass sounstage.
This is entirely incorrect. There is no 'bass soundstate' at less than 80Hz; below that frequency bass is perceived as omnidirectional. It is the harmonics of the bass instruments that gives you the soundstage. In the meantime, multiple subs get rid of the 'peaks, valleys and echo slap' since bass 'echo slap' is what causes standing waves in any room.
