From: https://kenrockwell.com/audio/stereo-subwoofers.htm
"Even with recordings with mono bass, having two subwoofers offers the benefits of less than half of the distortion, since each subwoofer needs to output only half the power. Woofer distortion more than halves every time you halve the power output. As you approach the limits, distortion climbs quickly. For the same distortion, you of course get twice the output with two subwoofers.
With two woofers, even if they are reproducing the same signal, their different positions will help even-out frequency response in a real room. Each will have somewhat different response in the room, and the net effects are smoother response."
I opted for two smaller "stereo subs" vs a single larger sub.
Genelec subs also remove the "full range" duty from the speaker.
I believe that the Neumann KH750 DSP as well as the KH80 DSP require an app and/or IOS device to do their party tricks. What if you don't have a device. What if the software isn't updated for newer OS's? How long did it take for Neumann to actually release the DSP software after it was promised? How long will it take Genelec to update GLM to work on Catalina.
Mechanical remedy vs software remedy
