A normal "sound processor" style filtering can't be applied in this

using a "mixed-order decoder" in the 1st place? (Quotation marks
intentional, as the source is TOA. You still have 8 + 4 speakers/subs.
to drive.)
I don't understand what you mean by "sound processor".
I probably should have written (surround) sound receiver or A/V
receiver, keeping the usual home theatre terminology.
"(Surround) sound processor" exists also, though.
See:
http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/volume_1_1/v1n1snd.html
Integrated receivers with surround sound processing and power
amplifiers to drive the speakers have come to be known as A/V
Receivers, or Surround Sound Receivers, while the preamplifiers with
surround sound decoding (but no power amplifiers in the chassis) have
come to be known as Surround Sound Processors, or Surround Sound
Preamps. Both have evolved into being the central hub of the home
theater system.
I don't know how any surround sound home receiver would support more
than 1 or 2 subs. (The latter would be a rare case.)
Or maybe I am wrong on this, can happen... :-)

Two, three or even four properly positioned subwoofers can effectively
cancel some room resonances and distribute bass more uniformly in the
room, improving bass in multiple listening positions.
Of course this is not what Jörn does.
Best,
Stefan
P.S.: I hope everybody is confused by now...
