The number of subs has little to do with room size or volume. You want multiple subs to get a flat response by canceling room modes. (Two minimum and three preferred.) Read the stuff by Geddes. It is pretty well established science. Use attenuation to address volume to taste after you are flat.
Dual subs and room size
Hi. I've been considering dual subs with speaker input to pair with my Martin Logan 35xt's and not sure what I should be considering in relation to room size. My room is 17' X 10' with the equip along the long wall. I've been looking at SVS sb1000s and HSU vtf 1/3. The SVS are 12" sealed vs 10" ported hybrid for the HSU. It was suggested that I go with no more than 10". They will support 100% music. The speakers are pretty much an 9' equidistant triangle set up and would be looking to set the subs on the outer side of the standmounts. Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dave
