I have attached a diagram of my subwoofer setup. It does not use HSU mid-bass units. However this is a testimonal that I love this setup, which includes the use of subwooofers configured as mid-bass units.

I could always locate the HSU's position when using it to play all the way up to 100 HZ crossover. This new setup, with "mid-bass units" has eliminated that localization issue, AND given me more mid-bass dynamics.

It has also allowed me to tune th HSU slighty hot (I.e. the 0-50hz output of the HSU is adjusted slightly louder). This provides more "ooomph" in the very low regions without creating boomy/thumpy bass in the mid-bass region.

The overall result in a more immersive experiencece for both movies and music.

Note mine are located in the front plane. I have not experimeted with near-field placement, as recommended by Dr Hsu for his modules.

I'm glad to hear that it worked well for you, Colin! The idea really does make sense, and the performance benefits for music and movies are in some cases quite huge!
