Two Sub1s tightly coupled (stacked or side-by-side) should provide up to +6 dB<ref> +3 dB from doubling the power and +3 dB from [https://blogs.qsc.com/live-sound/what-does-subwoofers-mutual-coupling-mean/ mutual coupling]. </ref> over a single Sub1 (118 + 6 = 124). The Sub 2 is 123 dB SPL. The SPL performance of two Sub1s should be similar to a single Sub2.

The Sub1 goes down to 40 Hz. The Sub2 goes down to 37 Hz (-3 dB). The difference is due to the larger physical volume of the Sub2 enclosure. Running two Sub1s does not change the frequency response.
