From Four 12 inch Woofers To Eight 12 inch Woofers, Will I Get Deeper Bass Or More Bass?


I have a pair of speakers that have two 12 inch woofers per speaker.  That pair of speakers are wired in a veritcal bi-amp config with 4 monoblocs.   I want to add another pair of those same speakers as fronts, but only power the woofers in the second pair with another pair of monoblocs.  The mid-range and highs will not be connected in the second pair of speakers.

The speakers with a total of four 12 inch woofers go down to 29 hz.  By adding an additional four woofers for a total of eight 12 inch woofers, will I get deeper bass, or just more bass?

This is the pair of speakers that I will be using...(or two pairs)

These are the specs for these speakers.

Just more bass! Not any lower! Eight 12's? Sell those hard-to-drive Kappas and get a pair of nicely restored Bozak Concert Grands - each has four 12's - total of 8 per pair! Rudy Bozak made some of the best speakers of the 50's and 60's! A man ahead of his time!
