Subwoofer Recommendation for Harbeth SHL5+


Missing just a little bottom end and slam (e.g 50 Hz and under) I am looking for (2) subwoofers to match my Harbeth SHL5+ speakers.  
I would prefer them to not step on the midrange- sound quality is a preference.
I will continue to run the Harbeth's full range.
Smaller is better for room fit.  
I listen nearfield about 10 feet away in one end of a finished basement. 
I understand the benefits of swarm type systems but this won't be practical for my setup. 
Thanks in advance and peace.

Avanti, you've been here long enough to know Greg's suggestions are a result of first hand experience and sensibility. 

I would add, although I have no experience with one, his choice of SVS Ultra offer a usable level of equalization and extension sub connectivity that would provide you with a subwoofer system that will easily integrate with most any future main speaker selection.

I used a distributed bass array for a brief time years ago. While I fully understand their usefulness I found proper placement of two subs provide my room with nearly the same benefit. Have fun with it.
