subwoofer 19 by 18 room

I am building a 5.1 home theatre
have an Arcam 350 on the way and am using B&W Matrix twos, center and 301's in the rear

I've a bit stumped on subwoofer
everything I demo is too loud, rolled wrong and it sounds like a booming box

Definitive, B&W, Martin Logan didn't excite me
Paradign sounded okay, heard stay away from Velodyne (but I was impressed with them 20 years ago)

any suggestions for a single unit subwoofer?
probably need some eq in my near square room

I may even have Jim Salk build me something

ps I have a two channel room where I do my serious listening to music

Are you a DIY'er? I made my first infinite baffle subwoofer about two years ago, due to what people were saying concerning the QUALITY of the bass. The bass is EVERYTHING you could wish for!!! (and then some)
It is very "different" than bass from a box.

Here is a link to wet your appetite. Be sure to read at the bottom of the page concerning the "quality".
