Subwoofer


Looking to add a subwoofer to my 2 channel system. Problem arises in that there is only one location give or take 2 feet in all directions where the subwoofer can be. 

Very large untreated open concept room. 14 ft tray ceilings, about 30 ft by 20 ft. Hardwood floors. Serious WAF. Maybe one day will have dedicated room but for now should I wait, make it "work" with eq, accept the limitations of the location, hope it works?

Suggestions please. Maybe a particular brand addresses this.

I don’t think one subwoofer is a good idea, in general, in addition to speakers with reasonable base. Two can enhance and enrich the sound. One will just muddle it while it will sure add the thump, which I will need for 3 minutes a day.

(and I wish it weren't the case, I tried for almost a year now with different (single) subwoofers)

thanks @mahgister I hope you are enjoying the music whichever ways, maybe nearfield listening with speakers is an option too!
