Two subs - should they be the same size or is different ok


I have a nice setup: McIntosh 352 integrated tube amp, VPI Signature table, Revel Studio 2 speakers, and 2 SVS subs - the SB2000 and SB3000.

I initially bought the SB2000 since I had a smalleer room at the time, and then got the SB3000 when I moved into a larger room - about 18' x 24'.  Then I thought - why not both?

I've have read that sometimes other Revel speakers are a little weak in parts of the bass spectrum.  I think the latest review was from Audioholics, although I'm not sure that was a fair comparison since one of the Revels seemed to be placed partly behind a couch.

However, I like the two different sub sizes because I can set the smaller one to engage at 68Hz and the larger one at 62 Hz.  So I can adjust not only the volume of bass but different parts of the audio spectrum

Is this logic valid?

Since you have both already, no harm in trying them.  As mentioned, the key is placement and dialing them in.
