Subwoofer Help...

I have a problem with bass and am looking for advice... I have a pair of B&W Silver Signature 30s in an audio only system. I listen primarily to classical music and am looking to integrate faithful deep bass reproduction with the Sig 30s. I am toying with the idea of purchasing a pair of subwoofers and was looking for any advice from people who have high resolution monitors and have done the same. My greatest concern is integration with the Sig 30s... various thoughts include a pair of the new smaller Revel subs, a pair of 12" Velodynes, or possibly a Wilson Pow Whow. Suggestions and/or experiences are welcome...

Bis188, as an owner of ProAc Tablette 50 Sigs I'm very envious of your subwoofer arrangement. I'm running my Tab 50s with an older NHT SW3P sub. The two RELs must be pretty damn sweet. Incidentally, how are they placed in your listening room?

Slartibartfast, getting even just one REL will put you on the path to musical happiness. RELs and ACI Titans integrate very well with monitors, and I'm sure you'll be able to get them to blend with your B&W Silver Signature 30s.

Sedond, I have heard about the VMP subs, but don't know anything about them. Are they a passive sub you matched to the Marchand crossover? Do you think a relatively inexpensive amp like the NAD 218 [250wpc] would do a decent job running a pair of VMPs?

Whoops! I think I mean the NAD 208 amp.
