Subwoofer for classical music listener

This is my second post on the subject of subwoofers.
My first post wasn't specific enough.
I listen to classical music 90% of the time.
Are there any classical music listeners out there who have subwoofers?
if there are, could you let me know what you have?
i don't imagine I would need quite as powerful or expensive a sub as those who mainly listen to other types of music, but I may be wrong.

I still have to get matching cables to do the high-pass option.

"Right now I'm listening to an audiophile pressing of "Tony Bennett at Carnegie Hall."
Not having any classic "crooner" records, thanks for a new bin search!
A quick lookup tells me the period presses are a good ol 6eye mono.

I do own mono's  of the 2  Frank/The Count on Reprise. "Frank & Basie"/"It Might As a Well Be Swing" Same year as Tony 1962 wow! What a period for music.

Highly recommended if you don't have a copies already. A workout on any system along with great music.

Well, here goes again.
 Changing the Y splitters from Radio Shack to thicker audiophile cables has made an improvement with the sub. Seems to have smoothed out everything.  If anything, there seems to be a wider soundstage than without the sub.

Please forgive my daily ramblings. This is, as they say, "a voyage of discovery."
I'm now listening to a classical piece with the sub and really enjoying it

More to discover
