God, I hate to ask this…
First and foremost, I wish you the very best on whatever battle fronts you choose to fight. My immediate thought on this is your friends. Assuming some are interested I would be inclined to revisit a discussion, and in a sense "embrace the transit...

No.  
Two subs - should they be the same size or is different ok
While setting up current system 'bout 3 or 4 years back I experimented with none, one and a pair of subs. A pair in a two channel system is a no brainer regardless of whether same brand and/or size. My "listening room" is this thing called a livin... 
For Ry Cooder and John Hiatt Fans
I've caught John Hiatt several times (solo, combo, Lyle Lovett, Sonny Landreth), and was lucky enough to catch Ry once while touring with Ricky Scaggs. Both are American treasures.
