Technically it is close to two co-located subwoofers. You can think of it as being nearly equivalent to two stacked EP500v4s. The amplifier in the EP800v4 uses two dedicated channels, so only the shared power supply keeps it from truly being two independent subwoofers in one enclosure.



So, what is the advantage of a EP800 over two EP500 's
or is the EP800 made for those that want the high volumn and low frequencies, but do not have the space to place two EP500 up front ?


The EP800 will have the edge in terms of maximum output if the 2 EP500s are going to spaced far apart from one another. The EP800 is also able to be EQ'd to a lower cutoff frequency (12Hz vs. 18Hz for the EP500) for those that demand reproduction of ultra low-frequency information. In many cases two EP500s spaced apart will result in a more linear in-room response. It really comes down to your preferences and the space you have available.
