Good deal for this sub?

I am running a PSW505 (12 inch) in one corner and a Mirage Omni 10s in the other corner and it sounds great.Was better than only 1 sub. Like Knuclehead said you get nice even bass and you get fullness in your room. My room though is 20ftx20ft so in a small room you may not need it. But I agree,you can never have too much bass!

Here is an interesting article from cnet:

Four subs, located at the midpoint of each wall will produce even smoother bass response throughout the room.

And yes, two decent 10-inch subs, properly placed can deliver higher quality bass than one 12-inch sub. Two $600 subs can sound better than one $1200 sub.

http://news.cnet.com/8301-13645_3-10026083-47.html As I pointed out, placement is critical since poor placement may simply cancell each others signal. However, I believe the more speakers is much better than larger or more powerfull ones as it evens and smoothens the sound through the room. I do believe the same would apply for subwoofers. However, like cnh I wouldn't want my HT room to ressemble or sound like the BOOM BOOM of a car with overpowered BOOM BOX in a small mobile enclosure! However, to each and everyone's taste I guess.

Setting subwoofer volume is next. Precisely matching the volume levels of the left, center, right, and surround speakers is important, but bass volume is more subjective. Some folks like to feel the sub working the room all the time--and some prefer to only hear the sub's contributions with big special effects driven movies or dance music. A Sound Level Meter (such as Radio Shack's Model 33-4050) can be a big help when setting speaker level, but it's nearly useless for determining the sub's correct volume level. The "by ear" method works best.
