When you em.loy four subs (a-la AudioKinesis' "The Swarm.), it is recom.ended that one sub be placed in a corner location with the others in various other locations (various 1/3 points throughout the room is usually very good).But, placing individual subs in two different corners is NOT recom.ended. One in corner placem.nt usually sounds m.ch better than two.
Also, having one sub switched into opposite phase from the other three helps as well.
But the golden rule to follow in any type of speaker placem.nt is, as always: "Whatever Sounds Best."
