Subwoofer for classical music listener

I am using two JL Audio F110v2 with a JL Audio CR-1 crossover.  Very surprised no one has mentioned this.  This is an incredibly seamless system once calibrated.  The calibration does take time but the crossover allows you to do this with precision.  My speakers alone have nice bass response but once i added the subs with the crossover it took it to a new level.  Highly recommended 

Al:  I'm just as happy to have a new sub instead of the very well worn used one, of which I'm sure I would be the third owner.

I just got back from my first day at LA Audio Show. Some impressive, some depressing demos we got here. Could not help comparing what I hear to what I already have at home (see my profile system). Not too many demos have a sub, but the one with two huge ones (Audeze, going mainstream) playing Dead Can Dance (in constant rotation thru SACDs and LPs at yours truly) was not opening my eyes/ears into another dimension. Maybe because it was 16/44 streaming, I will never know...
My point is: no one so far responded positively to my old Q of reproducing the sound of a Cathedral Organ at home. Its a good reference point, easily available to anyone. If you cannot bring pipe organ into your living room, then all the heat of some previous posts is moot, at least for me. 
I tried and failed! Should I buy a second sub, or two bigger ones, or delve into DSP room correction???
Those in the know, please help!

Hi Sevs,

If you want to commit to doing it right, as opposed to just playing around for months, this is the order of things to do:

1. Room Tuning. Contact GIK acoustics for proper help, especially with their bass traps.

2. EQ/DSP

When you get here you can decide if you need....

3. Second Sub

Also, lots of new and not extremely expensive DAC's do GREAT with Redbook and streaming.

Best,

Not using subs for (especially) classical music is better for multiple reasons: subs are slow(er) than your main speakers and will 'muddy' way up to the lower midrange, they will further reduce coherence of instruments and vocals, and change overall sound 'character'. If your speakers do not cover the desired frequency range it's probably a better investment to upgrade them instead of buying subs.
