In short, im going to get a BX10 to go with my BX5a's, the only place for it is under my desk on the floor, will it be ok there?
 
I have an M-Audio BX5/SBX set-up myself, and that's where my sub is--centered, just below my mixing desk, away from corners. Sounds great, works fine for me. Many factors affect the overall sound, of course, depending on the level of quality you need. The pro folks here will wisely suggest room treatment for higher applications, but I haven't found that necessary for my basic needs. Either way, your BX5As will likely surprise you (in a good way) when you add a sub. Just take plenty of time to experiment with the exact placement and mains/sub balance.

Best,
J.
 
Hmm cheers, SBX you say, anyone have any opinions on the SBX vs BX10??
 
placement of subwoofers, in theory, doesn't make much of a difference, because the human ear does not localize low-end frequencies

however, it is somewhat important depending on the acoustic properties of the room...all kinds of unwanted shit will happen if it's right up next to a wall, or especially in a corner
