Me too . sweet spot is the sweet spot.. I tried 2 subs with my Giya g1's , but the G1's go so low, it was a little bit of a waste and didnt really do much at all . I did try them as "node busters" , kind of worked but gave no appreciable improvement in my sound.
With other speakers I have had , twin + subs worked real well..
What I have found using subs is that the ambient cues seem to be revealed and there is a distinct improvement in soundstage width and depth...
Im using DIRAC for low bass control these days.
A lot depends on the room , treatments and levels you like to play at.. I listen loud (lifelike levels) and a lot of electronica and other music I listen to is bass heavy...
If my bass isnt right , then it makes no difference to me as to the rest of the spectrum, boomy bass ruins it for me..
