Velodyne Digital Drive Series subwoofer in stereo



Hi, I've been very interested in running two subwoofers in stereo (diff. signals to each subwoofer); I've heard many people swear by this setup.

My next room for my system will be 14' x 14' x 18' high ceiling loft living room. My question is, will two DD10 be enough to fill the room with organ music and scare me out of my seat for movie tracks? Should I move up to two DD12s? Money is not really an issue, but I'd like to save wherever I can.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks,
spacekadet

Amazing how strongly some (Truthseeker - funny handle...) confuse opinions with experience. I was skeptical about multiple subs. My neighbor considerately lent me his sub to pair with mine, and the reponse was better - smoother, more toneful, more texture, less nodes. Multiple subs placed symetrically minimize room nodes effects. Multiple subs are NOT about more bass. Also, subs are NOT omni-directional. Try turning off your mains and running tones through your sub. Believe it or not, you will hear the sub above 200 Hz! And mine is an active 24dB/octave crossover at 60Hz.

There is so much BS on the Internet passed off as fact, by punters who never bother to learn for themselves. Warning - too much time in these discussion forums is dangerous to your audio health ;-)
