zulugone, your particular room has a lot to do with it. If you're lucky enough not to have severe room modes created by the room's dimensions, a second sub may not bring a huge improvement. Many listeners DO have that problem, and adding a second sub allows nulls to be filled in. That is the biggest advantage of a second, more than increased maximum SPL. But a second may also allow both subs to be set at a lower volume, decreasing their distortion.
My situation is unusual, in that I use the GR Research OB/Dipole Subs as woofers for my speakers, not subs. They can be crossed over as high as 300Hz! Mine are used up to 180Hz, with the F15's from 40Hz down. Definitely overkill, but I already had the F15's when I discovered the OB's; I just had to have them! My room back in S. California was 10'H x 13'W x 19'L, and sounded terrible---flutter echo, severe ringing, etc. I just moved north, and my new room, though smaller, sounds much, much better. I can't wait to get my system set-up here later this month!
