I'm a bit confused of your post.. Are you buying some equipment? Can you answer to these questions:

What you have now?
What are you trying to achieve?
What size your room is?
What is your budget?

If I read your post correctly, all your might need is a male/female/female "Y" connector to connect the two subs to your receivers subwoofer/LFE output. If it has two outputs, you don't even need that.

how it will sound I can't say, but it will work.

You don't want to try to mix those Jamo tower speakers with the Klipsch Quintet center speaker. You should try to find a Jamo C60 center.

I'm not sure you want to use both of those subs at the same time, either, but your receiver does have 2 outputs so you could try it.

this is my 7.2 system with audyssey calibration and it is working fantastic without any problem,
my question is it ok keeping two different specification and different type (downfiring and frontfiring) subwoofers for clean even Bass following other requirements like room dimension and acoustic treatment…

my front pair is also full band so shall I consider this will also help me in clean even bass…
i read lot of stuff about multiple subwoofer setups...and i did all possible scenarios....
still i am not satisfy with low frequencies (bass)..

You need a better sub then I suppose. You could try to sell those Jamo subs and buy a sub that performs better.

They are quite small and not so powerful subs. And can't go low enough.

What is your budget? Where are you from? Room size? Do you want 2 subs or are you fine with one? Answer these questions and we can give you suggestions.

My budget is two sub woofer under $1000, i am from saudi arabia, L=14 W=15 H=10...


My front pair is full band, shall I consider this will also help me in clean even bass…?????? if yes then in that case do i really need two sub woofer??

Start with one powerful subwoofer. The one you have is not capable of playing much below 40 hz. And what it does play, I suspect would be described as 'muddy', or 'lacking definition'.

I would go with one sub. You may add another later on if you feel you really need one. Do you have any online shops out there where we could see what is available for you?

From google I found that Wadi sells SVS out there and you can find one contact directly from SVS site as well. PB 2000 for example would be good option and in US / Europe it is within your budget and would perform well. I would contact those retailers and ask for price they can offer for you.

Ported (PB) will have more low end extension, so you will get deeper bass for movies when sealed (SB) is more controlled and often called more musical. Both are good subs, PB will require more floor space when SB requires less as it has smaller enclosure. If you want more and deeper bass go with PB but if you want more controlled bass and smaller size then SB is better pick.

Kind of a semantic issue. Sealed technically has more low end extension. Ported will have higher SPL down to a certain frequency, then response falls to essentially zero. Sealed rolls off far more slowly and evenly. Sealed will be audible, but not necessarily powerful, at lower frequencies than ported.

But isn't it the SPL you want for movies? :)

Depends on where you want the SPL. Sealed subs have lower usable output, but ported generally have more output in the 20-40 Hz range, which may be important to you. After having owned both, I personally prefer the natural roll-off I get with a sealed sub. It seems more.... I dunno, polite. I don't want to think about my speakers while watching a movie, and ported subs seem to call a little more attention to themselves somehow to me. Sealed sounds a bit tighter and quicker.

I myself have sealed sub as well.. How ever I have not met the problems you describe with ported subs I have listened more to.
