I am about to build my stage for my dedicated HT and I still don't know where to put my subs. They are cambridge p1000's, they both have 2 10" woofers one on the left one on the right. Now when building this stage I can either put them on the left and right under my floor standers or out in front or maybe one in front one in back? Room dim's are 12'10"x24'6"x7'8"

Any suggetions would be fantastic, this is the last piece of the puzzle then I can start building

Bump please

Basically, there is no way anyone can predict how well your subs will perform at either of the described locations. The performance will depend on the listening position in relation to the subs and the room. All that can be done is to play around with positioning once the room is complete.

In general, co-locating the sub's (within ~1 foot of each other), will yield ~ a 6 dB increase in level, while non-co-locating them, (separating them by more than 2-3 feet) will yield ~ a 3 dB increase.

Non-co-locating the subs *usually* provides better bass FR at the LP. However, this flatness comes at the price of total system output.

Can you pre-wire for multiple sub locations? If so, you could then try out your subs in different locations and keep the one that measures and/or sounds th best.
