A pair of SVS sb3000s is a great choice. I love my sb4000 and have experience with the 3000 series and I don't think you would be disappointed. You also may want to look into a pair of HSU uls-15s if the larger box size doesn't put you off.
How do you know if you need to add a sub (without auditioning one, I mean)?
I like my speakers, I like the SQ of my system, so I'm not asking this question because I'm seeking a remedy to a deficit. I just wonder if it would sound even better with a sub. and I don't want to buy/audition anything based on mild curiosity. Also, like many of us, I don't have an unlimited budget and wouldn't care to stretch it unnecessarily.
How does anyone else decide whether to add a sub or play a pat hand?
My speakers are ATC SC40v2s. By specs, they don't go low. To my ears, the bass is much more satisfying than anything else I've listened to in my limited experience.

Subs, well integrated, can be glorious, reduce coloration and increase the sense of scale (physical image width/depth) as well as dynamic range. The problem is always, always always getting it well integrated. I've been here long enough to stop trying to help individuals do this and recommend if you want to go this route you rely on automatic room correction and experts with the room treatment.
