fxi 30's
rti 38's
dsw pro 400

what my question is i am looking at getting the svs PC12-NSD or would adding a dswpro 400 work? i use my setup 60/40 movies/music.

    assuming ceiling is 8' you have about 2500 cubic feet not counting the opening to the kitchen.

    If you sub is located in the corner I would just add another 400 or sell the one you have and go with one large sub.

    AGain, you are just guessing until you understand what your room is doing.

    If you are serious go to hometheatershack.com and get your read on using REW, Room EQ Wizard.
