Sub Pairing With Harbeth 40.3 XDs


Hello all - was wondering if anyone can recommend a sub pairing that is commensurate with my Harbeth 40.3 XDs ...? I love it loud. Looking for tight , punchy thump from the kick drum that sounds like arena PA ...🥳 

my system : 

Manley Snappers , Manley Jumbo Shrimp Pre

 

Some of these Subs like the REL S/812 seemed kinda pricey....an Emminence $250 speaker in a shiny powered cabinet doesn’t seem worth $3200?

 

Thanks!

from what I heard, for the most part, subs are cheap thrills (cheap subs). Listening fatigue will be off the charts if it’s too deep. So far I heard two types: powerful, in your face subs I don’t like or subtle subs I can’t hear (and sometimes I got it right.) I am waiting for an ELAC to try it with a remote.
