Using two subs

I went from one revel b15a to two and the difference is FAR from small.
Even though I could not hear where the sub was I could always feel the "pressure" on one side of the room was more. Adding a second sub has evened the pressure as well as aided me to level the bass response out in the lower registers.

I would never go back to one sub having lived with two now.

I run a pair of subs and won't ever go back to single. Once my system is set up as I want, I will set up my subs to carry the LF of my mains and LFE at the same time. I do not hear my subs at all but definitely feel the LF. One day I may even EQ the subs for optimization.

The American way...two is better than one, and bigger is better! :-)

Seriously though, I too use two subs and with the little on-board one band EQ, phase, level matching, and good placement, I have gotten them to blend in seamlessly with my mains.

IMO, this cannot be done by ear, and even with the RS meter it is nearly impossible. Especially setting the phase. I now use ETF measurement software, but the Velodyne SMS-1 very effectively uses a test tone sweep and microphone. Even if you don't EQ them, this way of measuring them and graphically displaying the results really helps the set-up process.

I cannot imagine how people do this any other way.
