Sufficient amplifier wattage paired with high sensitivity and high power handling capacity on the side of the speakers will lead to high sound pressure levels, if so desired.
Perhaps placing our single subwoofer right in front of us might have worked better, but if you consider the radius around the listening position, you will see that this leaves no room for a rear-ported subwoofer.

Low mass terminations, such as hollow bananas or thin spades, usually offer superior musical imaging with increased fine dynamics when compared to their higher mass gold plated alternatives found in many High End shops. I have heard it said that two down-firing subs placed near the sitting position could work well with movies, and this might be true for systems using DSPs, but for classic 2-channel setups without DSP such delays and phase shifts should prove problematic. The following steps are intended to provide an overview of the factors involved in maintaining sonic integrity, from the source of the system's energy all the way to energizing the room. At that time, I did not have a good explanation for this phenomenon and only made a mental note that I had better be careful when purchasing gear, in order to receive real value for money and not fall for inferior quality.

On an all-in-one HiFi unit, slight deviations from ground level are normal and will not affect the sound, but when two or more units are interconnected, differences in chassis potential will be harmonised via the RCA/cinch connectors and form a ground loop with the house installation.
