Best Subwoofer To Use With A Two Way Speaker System


I received my new Wilson-Benesch Vertex stand mounted loudspeakers in mid-January.  After about a 200 hour break-in period and a few position tweaks I am now in audio nirvana but without the final low octave or so.  I carefully chose my associated electronics and couldn't be more pleased.  My Sutherland N1 preamplifier has 2 outputs so I can use it to drive a crossover/subwoofer system.  
I am entirely certain that my spouse would never stand for me to add a W-B Torus Infrasonic Generator & the accompanying Torus Amplifier at about $12,000. I would like some assistance from those that have the experience to advise me of something very good to mate with my system at a much more reasonable cost.  Thanks

I have the Wilson Benesch Arcs and I pair them with a REL Strata III, picked up on CL for $400. Great combo, easy to dial in, and they blend together well so the REL isn't intrusive.  Sounds like I have floorstanders instead of monitors, but without overpowering the room.
If I had the room to add a 2nd REL and could locate one in my area, I'd definitely try it.   I believe in what the commenters say above - what one does well, two likely do better.   It's not happening in my 11x10 room, but if I had the space for it I'd love to hear what a 2nd REL would do for the sound.
