PS - You don’t need a sub to be less powerful, but one important component in adding a subwoofer is matching the dynamic range. You don’t want one sub that starts to compress when another still has plenty to give, so I personally stick with the same, or get a larger sub. If you are going to use DSP anyway a larger sub won’t overpower your room if EQ’d well.
It will however give you much better dynamic range.
The JL Audio subs with built in room correction are amazing, but also super $$$$. I can't spend that kind of cash, so I do with Hsu and MiniDSP and am very happy.
