I see no real value in having them match. Obviously. https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/8367 In fact, the main benefit of multiple subs is more small modes adds up to smoother bass. So to the extent they are different this creates even more variation in response, which for low bass is good. That is why mine were made 2 ported, 2 sealed, and they work beautifully together with the one ported isobaric Talon Roc sub. That is 5 subs of 3 different types. Just running out of new things to say about how misplaced an idea it is to talk about the importance of matching, integrating, timing, etc. There is a grain of truth to it. But it is so much less important than sheer numbers of subs as to pale in significance.
Mix and match subs?
I have a Paradigm x10 sub and am planning on adding a second sub.
Would integration be difficult if I a) got a 10 inch sub from another brand (thinking SF Gravis III to pair with my SF speakers); or b) the x12 from Paradigm (for getting even deeper).
Or c) should I just keep all the same and get another x10?
