Raising Subs?

Curious if anyone has raised their subs off the floor. If so, what was the result. Much difference?  I have 2 small subs that run at a very low volume level and am actually pleased with the setup. But if there would be a SIGNIFICANT improvement.

Also they are in a down firing configuration. Any improvement changing to front firing?

Like I said, I like what I have, so improvement would have to be very noticeable.

Thanks in advance.

I tried a half measure by putting a pair of KEF KC62s atop a pair of unused Velodyne HGS-10s. I didn’t care for the effect. Maybe because the KEF app that so carefully integrates the KC62s with the lS50 Wireless IIs has no provision for height.

I have tried this with one and two subs to reduce a vertical room mode. It partially worked, but as usual other frequencies that I worked hard at to get just so were compromised.

Well something better might just be pair of speakers that make you forget about the bass.

You seem to not understand how speakers and rooms work.
