Tomsch , I used to have one sub only? Like you I wonder if I will add more sub? I thought SWARM system of audiokinesis would be a phenomenal addition, unfortunately I have no more room for extra Amp nd four sub.Knowing that the modified pioneer sub are excellent? I bought a pair from a guy in UTah . Once I was able to integrate them on my system? There is no going back.The KLH model 9 did became more holographic and instruments sounded natural with weight.yes if you have room 2 or 3 or even 4 is good.
Did you ever buy too much bass?
I talk a lot about bass and integration of subwoofers in a system and I realized that I need to hear more about the experiences auidphiles have when they go buy speakers and put them in a room. Did you look at specs? Did you audition in the home? Did you end up with too little or too much bass compared to what you were expecting??

I have several amps but one blows away anything I've ever owned or auditioned. The Mcintosh Ma6550 is unbelievable in its bass... you don't need a subwoofer with this amp at all. I have the bass turned down almost all the way when I listen to music otherwise it will blow you out of the room. If you have doubts, try one out if you can find one. |
Bass is a strange creature. I was running a small 8" sub that only went down to 40hz, but wanted more bass, so I bought another 8" sub. At the listening position, the bass was softer like I was in a vacuum, but as I walked out towards the edge or stood up, the bass was booming hard! Poor neighbors. I learned the second sub activated standing waves and nulls and achieved the opposite of what I wanted. I went to one properly positioned bigger sub and now life is good again. |
@curiousjim Your efficiency at 20Hz must have been pretty incredible. 😂 Guess you really did pressurize the room. |
