    Two almost always not better than one, when it comes to wives and subs.

    But you can use the second Sub in another room!

    It would seem to be very unlikely that Sonos will ever allow 2 Subs to be added t to a stereo pair. There are potential sonic issues with having 2 Subs playing the same signal in the same space due to the wavelength of the sound and interference between the two signals.

    Whilst writing this I realised that, presumably, it's possible to have 2 "rooms" each with a stereo pair of 1s, 3s or 5s that each have a SUB bonded and then to GROUP those - you could even have those in the same room or adjacent rooms.
    I wonder if anybody has done this and have any feedback?
