Having spent a long time trying to find a good sub in the $400-500 range for my second floor apartment, I gave up because shipping a sub to Denmark from the US adds another $150 to the cost. So I'm forking out the $650 for the Kali WS-6.2. I have two concerns:
1. My living room doesn't have too much space to place the sub wherever I want. Ideally it would stand in the corner of the room next to my computer table which is where my Adam T5V mains are placed, that's my listening position. But I'm not sure how well it works with corners when the sub has 2 woofers, one in each side. If I place it in the corner then one woofer will aim at the wall while the other doesn't. Is that a problem? Alternatively I could place it at an angle so both woofers point at the walls, making the sub a bit louder but perhaps the bass would not only reflect off the walls but shake the entire building then? Do I have to reconfigure my living room so the sub doesn't have to be in a corner or how does that work?
2. The WS-6.2 appears to only have an 80 Hz crossover frequency. What are the odds that I'd need something higher, like 120 Hz? I don't even know when 120 Hz is preferred. The reason I'm getting a sub at all is that my T5Vs sound much better when they don't have to deal with the low frequencies; is an 80 Hz crossover gonna sufficiently take the load off my T5Vs?
