usually.
So much depends on the main speakers and the room, it's impossible to generalize. I had two with my Vandy 3As and adding the second one was surely better with a wider, deeper soundstage. But in the end, the 3As went deep enough that the subs really weren't doing all that much and I sold them.
With my current Edgarhorns that drop like a rock a 80hz, two 15" front firing subs are the ticket and really add that kick drum punch. But then, the subs act more like low end woofers/subs in my configuration.
Then, I also ran some Straight 8s with a TrueSub and one worked out pretty well. One thing I learned from Richard at Audience is that a low crossover isn't always best. If the sub is near the speakers, try moving the crossover up. I ran my Truesub at the max, 100hz, I think, and it was definitely better.
The rule is that there is no rule. Experiment.
