Hi,
I am considering adding a subwoofer to my system located in a somewhat large room (though with a smaller subset that's the listening area). Please see the attached diagram.
The room has pretty high ceilings 4.5m. My primary concern is to get good bass response in the main listening area rather than "filling the whole room". I have two possible locations where I can place subwoofers indicated in the diagram (sadly there isn't room for a lot of maneuver here). I strongly prefer to at least start with one subwoofer, even though I have understood from reading the forum that having multiple subs usually yields better results. I run roon and have the ability to add basic EQ filters using REW etc. I was thinking of getting an Arendal 1723 2V. I don't have a ton of other options as I live in the UK and many of the brands praised on this forum aren't easy to get here. Really appreciate any suggestions and comments on this.
EDIT: primary use case is music (though I listen to bass heavy stuff like Electronic, so care about low end a bit). I usually listen at moderate volumes ~65-75dB SPL at the listening position.
