2 Channel Sub Woofer, 1 or 2 Sub-woofers?

Another vote for 2 subs. However, for me, the key was proper integration - hard to do without help. In my case, I use a Velodyne SMS sub controller for this purpose, but there are also other products with similar functionality. For instance, any of the Audyssey enabled products will help optimize X-over and eq.

After reading all responses here now I'm wondering whether to fork out another $2,500 for a similar subwoofer for my 2-channel system.

I have another $600 subwoofer currently relegated to HT duties due to its incompetence when compared to the $2,500 sub. Although I have not tried it before, I was wondering whether there would be a slightest chance that both subwoofers can be hooked up together as a stereo pair and give better results. Any advice would be appreciated.

I have used two subs for the last thirty years. Try to wave launch [time align] each sub to its respective left or right main partner. Its all about proper phase control. Tom

I like two also but if you have a chance at a single one used take it and wait for another. I have used one REL and it worked quite well. Also one REL Studio would do an excellent job if you wanted to put that much money into one.
