In my living room, I tried placing a single sub in the available locations around the perimeter of the room but didn't get a satisfactorily flat response. The only good locations for a sub in my room which aren't in the way of foot traffic are at either end of the sofa. With the sub placed at one end of the sofa, and while sitting on the sofa next to it, it was still somewhat localizable even with a 40 Hz crossover point (mostly with HT effects, not so much with music). I solved this by placing a second sub at the other end of the sofa and balancing their levels by ear at the sweet spot. Now they completely disappear unless you put your head within 2 feet or so.
So I think using multiple subs can help with localization as well as evening out the response.
