Subwoofer advice

So looking to add a new component (or 2) to my system (Snell Type D, McCormack .5 or Jolida 502b, Schiit Saga pre, Rega Planet, Dual 1219 TT) and contemplating a sub.  Basement room is 14'w x 30'l x 7.5'h and treated with first reflection points and base traps on front wall.  Interested in the REL T series, either the T7i or T9i.  The Snells have 8" woofers so not sure the T7i at 8" will make a significant difference.  The room might be too big as well.  So it might have to be the T9i at 10".  Looking to supplement clean low end not anything bloated or overbearing.  

Any thoughts greatly appreciated!

OP - My room is 14.4x24 and the GE Forcefield 3's at 50% provide respectful and tight bass .

Don't know where you're located, but my GE dealer is Speaker & Stereo Store here in St Louis. Wylie Williams has taken care of me for many years and I highly recommend him

Respectful of your budget, a great value and excellent sub is the Golden Ear Forcefield 3 ( 1000w  18-250hz ) ($549) . I have 2 that worked very well with my B&W802's before I bought my Golden Ear Triton 1R's with built in subs. 
They now are in use in my home theatre greatly enhancing that listening experience. 

Happy listening !
