Keep in mind that you may reach the limits of your subs, and need to back it down. You may also have issues with the auto on feature (no problems with either the SVS or Outlaw subs for me), so it may not be a free lunch in some cases.

Overall, it's the way I like to run subwoofers.

Going the other direction, as I discussed in my apartment video (    • Apartment Subwoofer Tips (Condos, Tow...   ) reduces dynamics, limits amplifier power, and reduces bass bleed-over for neighboring apartments.

LG 4K 3D that I replaced previous Vizio with a Square Trade type warranty. Love the LG, some issues aside. Going through Amazon means you can get a decently priced 5 year warranty (strongly recommend for TV's and AVR's)
