two 10's or one larger subwoofer?

I know that this has been asked before but I would like to get more feedback. I have a 2-channel setup and would like to add more low end. I am aware that larger subwoofers typically have lower frequency response. Does that mean better bass? My speakers are Wharfedale EVO 2 50's which are floor standers. Any and all opinions would be appreciated.

To get a good answer, I think you need to talk a little about what your system is and what you like and don't like about it. Otherwise, you will get a lot of random comments that will, most likely, be of no use to you.

Tmega,

I wouldn't be so worried as to the size of an actual driver. If you want to make bass from a driver you can either, all things being equal, move a large driver relatively slow or move a small one very fast. What this means is that you can get the same low frequ. with different size drivers. There are many different, and valid, ways to achieve the same result. The reason I requested you list your system is just for this reason. If you are using some, cheap, mass market, receiver that only makes power on a spec sheet, I can absolutely guarantee that a new amp will be a much bigger upgrade than a sub. Like the cops say, you just better come clean and tell us everything.
