[QUOTE="Jeffdachef, post: 8277871, member: 650438"] as long as they are the same dimensions, specs etc... and firing the same direction, you can expect to get louder and maintain similar sound quality. It might not be "as effective" as a single enclosure but the differences might not be even audible but its dependant on several different factors. I had good results from using two identical enclosures before to fit things better. You want all your speakers moving in the same direction. If you have your speaker wires backwards (out of phase), you can flip the switch instead of putting your wires the correct way. Also, Phase is used if your subs are mounted invertedly. If one of your front speakers was wired backwards relative to the other, they would be 'out of phase' with one another. Very basically, what this causes is that when one speaker's woofer is 'vibrating' forward, the other is 'vibrating' backwards. The result is that the woofers' output 'cancels' one another and results in reduced perceived output [/QUOTE]
