Looking for a good small subwoofer...

A friend bought two smallish horn speakers, wants to beef up the bass with a pair of small subs, (preferably piano black) with built in amps and active crossovers to send line-level high-pass signal back to his EL84 class-A amp to the main  speakers.
These aren't going to get super loud, just fill in some low bass.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Steve.

I am not a fan of SVS, REL or KEF are better quality

One or two small REL's I've seen several on the used market or purchase new.

I agree with REL, but do they have active crossovers?  I would think that the quality of the crossover would be key.  That would most likely require spending a good bit of money on the subwoofer, or external crossover.  The advantage of the REL is the ease of high level inputs.

Rythmik,REL,or SVS should fit the bill. I run a pair of SVS SB2000 pro in my main system. They work great. I run older HSU’s in my secondary system,but HSU is probably too big for what you’re looking for. Good luck with your search, and let us know what you end up with.
