Why use two
Subwoofer
Finally
Try to keep them as short as possible. By its
electrical parameters, a long conductor will have a
bigger influence on the sound than a short one. It
may also work as an antenna and thus receive
various signals that may become a constant noise in
an active subwoofer.
Make sure that all connections are clean and not
oxidized. All connections should be mechanically
stable, both power, signal and loudspeaker cables.
Signal cables should be separated from other
cables.
To get the best result the front speakers should be
placed symmetrical in front of the listener. The
distance between the front speakers should be
around 80% of the distance to the listener. In other
words, the recommended angle between the front
speakers should be 45°.
There are benefits having two subwoofers instead
of one.
The maximum sound pressure level will be higher.
Less dips and standing waves in the room and a
better frequency response in the room (and in
sweet spot).
The power needed will be less to reach the same
SPL as with one subwoofer.
Please remember that good sound is a matter of
taste, so you have to experiment to obtain your
favourite one.
We wish you best of luck!
