I am currently running a pair of 4pi's on my front wall.

Until I get the system in my basement, I have been using a single sub.

Initially, I had the sub located outside of either the left or right speaker, with my dac and amp centered.

With this configuration, I could hear/feel the somewhat lopsided bass response towards one side of the room (left or right), as Wayne has described.

I then centered the sub, (swapped it with the dac and amp) and the lopsided bass response went away.

Overall, bass response in my room sounds/measures relatively flat.
But I must say, I believe some of this improvement is a result of exstensive (compared to most) room treatments, not just to the centering of the sub.

In fact, before the room treatments in this room, I had a complete 70 hZ "null" (inaudible frequency), dead center in the room!

YMMV.
