I still want to suggest a setup that I will soon have in operation, I have
written about it before.
It uses 10 channels, it is a hexagon in the horizontal plane with a speakers at
front back.
The Z is handled by for speakers, placed where the 4 hexagon side speakers will
end up if the

Quick suggestion: - as you're having to use more than 8 channels anyway, you're
likely to be using a 16 channel card; thus, you would have some channels left
to decode (horizontal only) to 3 or 4 subs

Yes, I have a few woofers available BUT according to what I understand
from psychoacoustics we cannot really hear directions of sound below 80 Hz,
as the ear/brain is changing method of decoding soundwaves between 80 to 100 Hz?
So do I really need more than a pair driven in mono (or 4) to even

Evaluation for low frequencies
For frequencies below 800 Hz, the dimensions of the head (ear distance 21.5 cm,
corresponding to an interaural time delay of 625 µs), are smaller than the half
wavelength of the

I know that it is frequently written, but it's not true. Of the two

mechanisms active at low frequencies, Interaural Time Differences (ITDs) are
the
ones that give useable localization cues in free space.
