Does anyone play two pairs of speakers at the same time?

I have found that certain combinations of speaker pairs produce a better sound than the single pair alone. For example: Klipsch Quartets and PSB Image 4T (new tweeters from Vifa) Quartets inside pair and volume matched to PSBs. I have done this over the years and found some great combinations.

Yep, I have some non-audiophile friends and they LOVE that set up.

They feel it produces an immersive sound field. You loose all sorts of audiophile goodies, but they have fun that way.


I also sometime thing about experimenting with rear facing speakers. In other words, just adding small 2-ways and have them face the rear wall.

Yes because four sources makes for better bass. Lol!
