My experience adding subwoofers to 2 channel


My Kappa 9 speakers are rated to 29hz and they sound pretty good in my 18x24 room...powered by McIntosh mc1.25 amps...l was looking for another layer of bass to enhance the sound..my first experiment l took my SVS pb16 ultras from my theater room and tried them first...it sounded terrible,didn't blend well..couldn't hear a difference until you turned in up then it rattled the room apart........my final experiment worked..l used 4 Velodyne minivee subwoofers(1000 watt rms class D sealed 8 in.) and after hours of calibration l hit it......lve got the bass response that exeeded my expectations. ....l should have done this along time ago....can anybody tell me of another subwoofer that may work even better?

I have recently added 2 more 21 inches subs to the existing 2 12 inches subs to my main speakers. I find that the system sound more engaging with just the 21 inches subs. Maybe the subs are out of phase with each other. I do not know how to integrate them.

khiak,

     I think you're saying you have four total subs (two 21" subs and two 12" subs) and like the sound with just the two 21" subs and no 12" subs in your system.  Is this correct?

I have the 12 inches subs for 6 years. The 21 inches subs added this month of May. Room is small so limited choice of placement.
