2. speakers

Has anyone added a small subwoofer to 2 channel and been thrilled with the result?

The subwoofer can of worms.
I’d like to add some bass to my otherwise fine 2 speaker setup and have limited space so perhaps a single 10in?
After a few weeks of research the only conclusion I can come up with is - everyone agrees they have to be setup properly. Every brand and technology has their own following and most recommend using 2 (which I don’t want due to space concerns). My room is 12 x 13 ft with box raised ceiling.
After much research, these are the subwoofers I’m trying to pick from, for various reasons:
Rythmik FM8  - lots of hifi fans
JL audio e110 - fantastic support
REL T/9i - sort of a gold standard
KEF R400b - interesting technology, makes me grin. 

I've never heard any of these.
System:
Hegel H160
SF Concerto speakers on stands.

Casteeb, I have SF Venere 2.0 and needed a little more low end for certain types of music. I was pointed to the Sumiko s.5 because it matched the tonal qualities of the SFs. I have been impressed with how the sub is almost undetectable the way it just fills in the lower frequencies without sounding like an extra speaker. Plus it looks damn good. I have it attached via the speak-on cable to the b speaker outs. 
Room is 13.5x12.5 with 9 ft ceiling.
