2-channel listening with a sub-woofer


Is anyone using a subwoofer for 2-channel listening? Have you ever heard a subwoofer for 2-channel listening?

If so, did the sub integrate seamlessly with the speakers? What sub was it?

When using a subwoofer, is it no longer important for the 2-channel amp to be able to drive the woofers?

For 2-channel, is a sub with a 15 inch driver faster than one with an 18 inch driver?

(say a 15 inch Velodyne DD vs an 18 inch Velodyne DD.

Xiekitchen, I'm aware they've been around a long time...I've just never heard one myself in a high end 2- channel setup...and the overwhelming majority of the 2 channel systems that I've seen posted here on the 'Gon don't run a sub.

I'm considering a purchase of a sub for my system.

Back to my original question...have you ever heard a sub in a 2-channel system? How did it sound and was the integration seamless? What type of sub and speakers were used?
