Is Bass Non-Directional In A Two-Channel Rig?
How can you be sure that the difference in soundstage results from having two stereo subs located as you have them and not just a result of any sub placed anywhere? 
Is Bass Non-Directional In A Two-Channel Rig?
I'd be interested to know if your test people that evaluated the soundstage difference would have different results using a single subwoofer. I suspect your ability to pinpoint the subwoofer is much better than even the above average Joe.

Jax2 - I'll have to take a look. I already have Hello Mr. Paganini and it's a great SACD. 
Is Bass Non-Directional In A Two-Channel Rig?
When I first got my subwoofer I had it sitting directly behind my side of the couch via wireless connection. A friend of mine came over to hear the subwoofer and assumed that he was hearing the "before" since he didn't see the subwoofer. He was, h...
