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

Hey, Perazz...
I recently purchased the JL Audio e112 to add the extra low end to my B&W 804's.  My decision to purchase the sub was due to a review (yes, I know it's not the best way to purchase a piece of audio equipment).  But I did have a small fear the sub wouldn't blend as well as I wanted it to.  Well, my small fear diminished once I got the sub dialed in to the system.  the extension is almost heaven.
But I knew there was more that could be done.  I looked into how to improve the bass even more - and that's when I researched a sub acoustic platform which essentially eliminates any vibrations from the sub to be transmitted into the floor (and thus into the walls).  This little 70 dollar addition transformed the bass even more...was more fluid and blended even better than before!  That much closer to heaven...  I "cannot" stress how much acoustical treatment will transform the sound for you.  Good luck in finding your audio nirvana
