Redwoodgarden-
Thanks for sharing your experience. I agree that the corner is best for max SPL. But, I amicably disagree with one part, or perhaps simply misunderstand-
***Don't blame the corner for a one note, or boomy bass. Blame that on the resonance of your walls.***
Actually, I think it is the corner location. My wall "resonances" (does this refer to wall dimensions, construction, something else?) are uniform throughout the room. So that should not be a factor, again unless I misunderstand you.
I wish I had taken a response measurement when the sub was in the corner, to compare it with its present location, to have data for my room. But others have measured various placements. Check out the two links in the original posting. Maybe they will interest you as much as they did me. In both articles, corner location measurements show powerful but ragged output, compared to mid-wall. My personal experience was consistent with this. Both articles also used models and measurements to advocate multiple subs.
Food for thought.....
