sub-woofer recommendation for 2.1 channel

I'm currently using Primare i21 integrated amp and Totem Model 1 Signature speakers.
Recently, I set up the speakers in Joachim's method (http://www.audiophysic.de/aufstellung/beispiel_e.html) and realized that bass is very weak. So I started to think about getting a sub-woofer that I can hook up to the Primare integrated amp.
Do you think it's a good idea to connect a sub-woofer to the 2-channel amp? If so, can you recommend an affordable one that can be a good match with the current system?
Thanks in advance.

A long time ago, I had the Primare A20 MKII (your amp's ancestor) with Dynaudio 52 monitors.

I used the REL Strata III sub via high level outputs; it blended very well.

I don't think you need to spend big bucks to get the benefit you're looking for. Certainly closer to $500 than $1000, put it that way. If I was buying again, I would think about a kit like this:
