I'm looking to add sub-woofers to my system...


I have speakers that are single-driver, very efficient and have terrific transient response.  My concern is finding reasonably priced smaller subs that have the ability to take input from the amp output and that have fast enough transient response to keep up with my main speakers.  I'm not looking for subterranean bass response.  Just looking to augment from ~50hz down to ~the lower 30hz range.  I have a rather small listening space so the need for physically smaller subs is important.  I'd appreciate anyone with experience, to help me with matching fast subs with fast response speakers...   Thanks !

Thanks for all of your inputs on this !  And yes I do have line level outputs for the sub's.  I'd just rather use the amp outputs as my preamp is a good distance from my amps and I don't really want to do another long parallel lead length nor add parallel impedance.  I will take a look at all these subs.  

Thanks for all of your thoughtful recommendations and suggestions.  I am starting my search...  Any others I might consider from your experiences would be helpful !

@jayctoy  I'll be happy to let you all know what I end up getting.  Right now, I would like to buy 2 subs for stereo bass reproduction.  As for reasonable price, I'm thinking $700 - $1000 each in that range.  I'm sure it will take me some time to research these subs and choose.  I'm looking for good flexibility in adjustments to make the transition from mid-range to the subs as seamless as possible.
