Rel B2 or JL Audio f 112

Hello
I need help with my set up.
I have Paradigms Studio 20v5 and i want to add subwoofer.
Now, here is dilemma. Should I go with REL B2 or JL f112.
I was told that i would need external crossover for JL's but than
i also heard that i don't need one. My room is 17"x11"x9".
Please, any information would be greatly appreciated.

Rels seem to blend spectacularly well with main speakers when set up right. JL's have always sounded very muscular in my experience which is great fun. I don't know how well they blend with mains.

These are sufficiently expensive that if you have room for full range speakers that would be an interesting alternative.
