In need of some advice on a matching a sub


Hi guys new to all this just wondering if anyone could help me out, im currently running a 5.1 (without sub) system im using kef reference model 4s for fronts model 1s for rears and a 200c center speaker im running all this off a avc a1-hd intergrated amp, ive done some reasearch and been told to pick a sub very wisely as it will make or break the system just wondering if you have any suggestions thanks

Phew, that integrated amp has one long manual.
In any case I see it has subwoofer features so you can either run them Large or small-meaning it can do crossover adjustments.
That being the case, you shouldn't have any problems integrating them with your Kef's. Just about any quality sub should have no problem.
JL, REL, HSU, etc.
Wasn't worried about the crossovers more the tone of bass as the Kefs already have 6 subwoofers 4 10s in the front and 2 8s in the rears I don't want a tonal difference from the sub to the speakers
Well, the crossovers should cut off frequencies so that the sub and speakers aren't generating the same signal at the same volume. This should eliminate the tonal differences you are wary of.
It's sort of like your speakers which have crossovers to allow each driver to work at its' optimal range. 
If you go with a high pass filter, then your Kef's would reproduce frequencies above the cutoff, while the subs provide all frequencies below. It also allows your amp to run more efficiently as lower frequency require more power.
I still want the bass from the speakers tho, they have subwoofers in them and they work well at the moment it's just for that extra oomf when an explosion hits really
