Slim, ideally you want 2 subs to even out the bass. The Minidsp allows you to correct for anomallies in your bass . My last house had a huge suckout at 70hz as measured with a calibrated mic and REW, which happens to be right in the range where it hits your feelers. I managed to move subs around a bit and equalize and time align the subs with the Minidsp to help mitigate the issue. I have been lazy this past year and havent done much in the new theater but it is much more forgiving and my subs are both up front and corner loaded. Perhaps one day i will build my MBM's and do some measureing. I am no guru but i share what experience and maybe someone will take interest as well and dive down the bass rabbit hole like Trevor (serentitynow). Bass can sound good and be wrong, we all have our preferences and the room has a huge impact on the music we hear. Enjoy your adventure.
