Default Centre, speaker - twin drivers, use one enclosure or two separateenclosures side by side?

one up until they hit a frequency where their distance apart might
become problematic, then roll one off.


** If you put the two woofers in series, that will make the impedance 16 ohms and increase effective the amplifier power rating - then put say a 20uF cap across one of them. The impedance will drop towards 8ohms above 1 kHz and the no cap driver gets 6dB more level - just what you need to maintain flat response.
